Frozen shoulder therapeutic massage
Frozen shoulder treatment is gentle, gradual work on the shoulder, upper back and neck muscles, aimed at comfort rather than force.
- Duration
- 30-90 min
- Price
- On request
We agree the pressure before I start, and I stay within a comfortable range of movement throughout - nothing is pushed or forced. Frozen shoulder should be diagnosed by a doctor first, and this session is not a substitute for that: it does not cure it, restore movement or shorten recovery. It is gentle, hands-on work on the muscles around a stiff or painful shoulder.
If you have been told you have frozen shoulder, or think you might, tell me when you book so I know what to expect and what to avoid.
Prices are given when you get in touch, so you always hear the current rate.
What people usually come for
- A stiff, aching shoulder you are already having looked at by a doctor
- Tension that has spread from the shoulder into the upper back and neck
- Gentle, careful work rather than deep pressure
- A complement to physiotherapy you are already having
- Simply wanting the area worked on with extra care
