Frozen Shoulder Physiotherapy in Lahore

Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) makes the shoulder painful and stiff, so that raising the arm, combing hair or reaching behind the back becomes hard. It is more common in people with diabetes. Recovery takes time, and regular physiotherapy helps regain movement.

To book, call us or send a WhatsApp message with the patient’s age, the problem, and whether you want a clinic visit or a home visit. We confirm a time that suits you.

Your first session

1. History – your problem, how it started, medical reports and current medicines.
2. Assessment – posture, movement, strength, flexibility and, where needed, nerve tests.
3. Explanation – what is likely causing the problem, in simple words.
4. First treatment – pain relief, hands-on treatment and the first exercises.
5. Plan – how many sessions are likely and what to do at home.

How many sessions will I need?

The number of sessions depends on the problem, how long it has been there and how regularly exercises are done at home. A recent sprain may need a few sessions; long-standing back pain, a frozen shoulder or stroke rehabilitation needs a longer plan. Your physiotherapist reviews progress regularly and tells you honestly when you no longer need treatment.

Safety first

Physiotherapy is safe for most people, but see a doctor first (or urgently) if you notice:

• Back pain with loss of bladder or bowel control, or numbness around the private area – go to emergency
• Sudden weakness of an arm or leg, or face drooping – call an ambulance (possible stroke)
• Pain after a fall or accident with severe swelling or deformity
• Pain with fever, weight loss without reason or night pain that never eases
• Chest pain or breathlessness

Frozen shoulder physiotherapy in Lahore – common myths about physiotherapy

For frozen shoulder physiotherapy in Lahore, many people think physiotherapy is only massage or only machines. Good physiotherapy combines a proper assessment, hands-on treatment, education and an exercise plan that you understand and can follow.

Another myth is that rest is always best for pain. Short rest can help in the first days, but for most back, neck and joint problems, gentle movement speeds up recovery.

How we measure progress

At the start we record pain, movement, strength and what you find hard to do – climbing stairs, sitting at work or lifting your child. These are checked again every few sessions.

Seeing progress in numbers and in daily tasks keeps you motivated, and tells us when to change or finish the treatment plan.

How to prepare for your physiotherapy session

Wear loose, comfortable clothes – shorts or a loose trouser for knee and hip problems, a loose shirt for shoulder and neck problems. Bring your medical reports, X-rays or MRI and a list of the medicines you take.

Note down when the pain started, what makes it better or worse and what you hope to do again – walk to the mosque, play with your children, sit at work without pain. This helps your physiotherapist set the right goals.

Exercises at home between sessions

What you do at home matters as much as the session itself. Your physiotherapist gives you a short list of exercises with clear repetitions. Doing them once or twice every day speeds up progress.

Mild discomfort during exercise is normal, but sharp pain is not. If an exercise increases pain for more than a couple of hours, stop it and tell your physiotherapist at the next visit.

Posture and daily habits

Long hours on a phone, laptop or a soft sofa put strain on the neck and back. Keep screens at eye level, sit with the back supported and take a short walk every 30–45 minutes.

When lifting, bend the knees, keep the load close to the body and avoid twisting. Sleep on a firm mattress with a pillow that keeps the neck in line.

Heat, ice and pain relief at home

For a fresh injury with swelling, a cold pack wrapped in a cloth for 10–15 minutes can ease pain. For stiff muscles and long-standing pain, warmth often feels better.

Pain-relief medicines should only be taken as advised by your doctor or pharmacist, especially if you have stomach, kidney or heart problems.

Physiotherapy for older adults

Strength and balance training reduces the risk of falls and helps older adults stay independent. Exercises are gentle and adapted to the person – many can be done sitting.

Family members can help by keeping walkways clear, adding grab bars in the bathroom and encouraging a short walk every day.

What to expect on your visit

Your visit starts with a short conversation about your health and what you hope to get from the session.

We explain what will be done and how long it takes, so you feel comfortable throughout.

If you have pain or an injury

Wellness sessions are not a treatment for a specific injury. If you have pain, stiffness or weakness, book a physiotherapy assessment first.

Our physiotherapists can then suggest whether a wellness session would be a good addition.
