Frozen Shoulder

Frozen Shoulder, or adhesive capsulitis, is characterized by pain, stiffness, and limited shoulder movement due to inflammation of the joint capsule. Ayurveda identifies this condition as a Vata imbalance affecting the musculoskeletal system. Treatment combines external therapies like Abhyanga (herbal oil massage), Pizhichil (oil bath therapy), Njavarakizhi (herbal bolus massage), and medicated steam to reduce stiffness and enhance circulation. Internal herbal medicines help alleviate pain and inflammation while nourishing tissues. Specific yoga practices and gentle exercises are integrated to improve flexibility and strengthen shoulder muscles, facilitating a gradual and sustained recovery
