Understanding Frozen Shoulder: A Painful Puzzle

Frozen shoulder, medically known as adhesive capsulitis, is characterized by stiffness and pain in the shoulder joint. It often develops gradually, restricting movement and impacting daily activities. While the exact cause remains unknown, factors like age, injury, and repetitive strain can contribute.

The Traditional Asian Medicine Perspective

Traditional Asian medicine views a frozen shoulder as an imbalance in the body’s qi or vital energy. This imbalance can lead to stagnation and blockages in the meridians, the pathways through which qi flows. Acupuncture and herbal medicine aim to address these imbalances, promote qi circulation, and reduce inflammation to alleviate pain and stiffness.

Acupuncture: Releasing the Blockages

Acupuncture involves the insertion of thin needles at specific points on the body to stimulate qi flow and unblock meridians. Dr. Sohn personalizes each treatment plan based on the individual’s unique presentation and energy patterns.

Testimonial: “After months of struggling with a frozen shoulder, I was skeptical about trying acupuncture. But Dr. Sohn’s gentle approach and personalized treatment made a difference. The pain gradually subsided, and I’m now regaining my shoulder mobility.” – Sarah K., Beaverton

Herbal Medicine: Nature’s Healing Touch

Traditional Asian herbs play a crucial role in Dr. Sohn’s treatment approach. He utilizes herbal formulas to address symptoms like inflammation, pain, and blood stasis. These herbal remedies can be taken internally as teas.

Testimonial: “The herbal medicine Dr. Sohn recommended was a lifesaver! It provided immediate relief from the sharp pain, and I could finally get some restful sleep.” – John M., Portland
