In certain cases the symptom of a frozen shoulder has its cause elsewhere in the body and only after thorough assessment can a treatment plan be determined.
The following case study is an example of how Amatsu works as it is interested in the root cause of the problem. Eliminating the symptom would only kill the messenger and not bring about long lasting change.
A client came to see me about her frozen shoulder (limited shoulder movement) that she had been suffering from for 6 months. During thorough assessment I palpated that her liver was inhibited in its movement and after freeing it off and some local mobility work around the shoulder full shoulder movement was restored.
The same client was suffering from acid reflux (heartburn) and had been told by her GP she would have to be on acid blockers for the rest of her life.
During the second treatment I did some visceral work around the pyloric sphincter and balanced the liver & stomach which stopped acid reflux, and her symptoms did not reoccur, hence the client did not have to take acid blockers anymore.
