Product Description

Synopsis

Author Clair Davies' own case of frozen shoulder led him to undertake an extensive study of trigger points and referred pain that eventually resulted in his runaway best-seller, "The Trigger Point Therapy Workbook". Now, this renowned bodywork expert and educator revisits the subject of frozen shoulder, offering the most detailed and comprehensive manual yet available about this painful and debilitating condition, a useful resource for self-care and for bodywork practitioners looking to expand their treatment repertoire. Frozen shoulder, the syndrome name for several joint and tendon-related symptoms, is experienced as a loss of motion and pain in the shoulder and upper arm. It is most often observed in women between the ages of forty and sixty and individuals with type-two diabetes. Traditional medical treatments for the condition, which rely on painkillers, steroid injections and physical therapy, often do little to moderate symptoms or speed recovery. Trigger point therapy, a gentle massage technique that targets localised areas of tenderness in soft tissue, has been used very successfully to relieve pain, restore range of motion and shorten recovery times.


From the Author

If you’re enduring the misery of a frozen shoulder, you need to know that "adhesive capsulitis" is almost always a mistaken diagnosis. Unless your shoulder has been "frozen" for several months or years, adhesions haven’t had time to form. Unfortunately, most of what you hear from the medical establishment and find on the internet is outdated, parroted dogma about adhesive capsulitis.

Your shoulder pain and stiffness is almost certainly caused by myofascial trigger points (tiny contraction knots) in muscles associated with the shoulder. Trigger points are easily treated, and good results usually come very quickly. These are medically proven facts, although very few medical schools teach them as yet, and most doctors are still out of the loop.

Even so, thousands of physicians, physical therapists, and massage therapists have studied trigger point therapy independently and are using it to successfully treat shoulder pain and frozen shoulder.

Don’t let inertia, lack of knowledge, or someone else’s skepticism keep you from doing your own research. Try the therapy yourself and find out for yourself whether it works. Trigger point massage is such a simple therapy that most people are able to treat themselves.

Don’t buy the myth that you have to endure this misery for a year or longer. (I cured my own frozen shoulder in four weeks.) If you have the initiative to assimilate and apply the information contained in The Frozen Shoulder Workbook, there’s a good chance you can cure your own frozen shoulder.

5.0 out of 5 stars The power to heal yourself is priceless!, 5 April 2008
Wonderful book! Everybody with frozen shoulder should be given the chance of trying this method; it helped me heal my frozen shoulder. The explanations on how to locate your problem muscles, and how to treat them, are incredibly accurate. When you have had months and months of pain, and you go to doctors and physical therapy and the results are so slow that you start believing you are never going to heal, this book shows a way to find relief and to get well. Furthermore, you can continue to treat yourself whenever pains pop up (like maintenance). I am not saying that doctors and physical therapy didn't do anything to help, but it was the methods described in this book what finally gave me back my mobility and took away the pain. I continue using it every time I have contracted or sore muscles. I recommend it all the time to every person that I think could be helped with these methods. I actually have had several people buy it and use it regularly. It is a lot of information though. Just go slowly. The results are amazing.

By K. E. Summers (London) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This book is worth every penny a thousand times over, written in a conversational style with personal touches that make reading and learning really easy and fun. After this book you will know every muscle in the shoulder and how to treat it. It's a bible. Buy it.
