Frozen Shoulder Treatment in Saratoga Springs

Regain Shoulder Mobility and Reduce Pain Without Surgery

If you’re experiencing pain, stiffness, and limited shoulder movement that seems to be getting worse over time, you may be dealing with frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis. At Turning Point Chiropractic in Saratoga Springs, we offer customized, non-invasive treatments to help restore function and reduce pain—so you can get back to doing what you love.

What Is Frozen Shoulder?

A Common but Often Misunderstood Condition

Frozen shoulder is a condition where the shoulder joint becomes inflamed and tight, leading to significant pain and progressive loss of motion. It most often affects adults between 40 and 60 years old, and is more common in people who have recently had surgery, injury, or periods of immobilization.

Key symptoms of frozen shoulder include:

A dull or aching shoulder pain

• Gradual loss of motion, especially lifting the arm overhead or behind your back

• Increased stiffness, particularly in the morning or after inactivity

• Trouble sleeping on the affected side

• Pain during daily activities like dressing, reaching, or lifting

The condition typically progresses through three stages: Freezing, Frozen, and Thawing—and without treatment, it can take up to two years to resolve on its own.

Targeted, Hands-On Care That Works

At Turning Point Chiropractic, we combine chiropractic care, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitative movement strategies to improve joint mobility, break down adhesions, and reduce inflammation naturally. Your treatment plan may include:

Chiropractic Adjustments

Gentle adjustments to the spine and shoulder can help improve joint mechanics and reduce nerve irritation contributing to shoulder dysfunction.

Active Release Techniques (ART)

This precise, hands-on soft tissue technique helps reduce scar tissue, improve range of motion, and relieve pain in the shoulder capsule and surrounding muscles.

Myofascial Release & Graston Technique

We use instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization to address tight connective tissue and break up restrictions that limit movement.

Functional Rehab Exercises

We guide you through progressive movements to retrain your shoulder mechanics, prevent compensation, and speed up the healing process.

Is Chiropractic Care Effective for Frozen Shoulder?

Yes—chiropractic care is highly effective when frozen shoulder is caught early or when conservative care is consistently applied. We focus on restoring movement in the shoulder and spine, decreasing inflammation, and preventing the long-term disability that can occur when frozen shoulder is left untreated.
