Ayurvedic Treatment for Frozen Shoulder in Kerala, India

Frozen shoulder causes pain and stiffness in the shoulder joint over one to three years, thickening and tightening the shoulder capsule. It affects mainly people aged 40-60, especially women, and can be triggered by medical conditions or immobility. Symptoms include pain, stiffness, and limited motion. Diagnosis is through exams and imaging, and treatment includes physical therapy, medications, and sometimes surgery.

Causes

Frozen shoulder occurs when the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint thickens and tightens. Risk factors include being over 40, especially women, and having reduced shoulder mobility due to injuries or surgeries. Conditions like diabetes, TB, Parkinson's disease, and thyroid disorders also increase the likelihood of developing frozen shoulder.

Snehana

Snehana involves the application of medicated oils, ghee and herbs to the body internally and externally for three to seven days. Snehana is crucial as it loosens ama or toxins and doshas in the body.

Swedana

Swedana is the thermal or non-thermal procedure which cures stiffness, heaviness and cold and produces sweating in the body. By using different properties of swedana dravyas, it is mainly beneficial in vata kaphaja rogas (diseases).

Basti

Basti is a treatment to support vata energy. An enema prepared with oil and fat, which are the sharp properties of vata, will help to reduce kapha, eliminate ama toxins.

Nasya

Nasya treatment refers to an Ayurvedic therapy that includes instillation of herbal oils, juices or powders through the nasal route. It is especially desirable for diseases of parts above the base of the neck, nasal passage being the gateway of the head.
