Frozen shoulder is also known as adhesive capsulitis which is the condition characterized by stiffness and pain in the joint of the shoulder. The symptoms usually begin from mild pain in the shoulder, which gradually increases and worsen over the time. It takes time for pain to get calm, i.e. around one to three years. In this condition, the shoulder capsule thickens and becomes tight. The thick bands of tissues keep on developing and thus, there is reduction in synovial fluid in the joint. This cause’s severe pain due to increase in friction and a person is unable to move shoulder.
‘Apabahuka’ is the term for frozen shoulder in Ayurveda. It usually affects amsa sandhi and is produced by Vata dosha. It is considered as Vataja vikara which is caused due to dryness of sleshaka kapha from amsa sandhi. Apabahuka is manifested due to depletion of tissue elements as well as samsrushta dosha. This involves painful movements of hands and stiffness in the joints of the shoulder, where the Vata gets accumulated.
The Ayurveda suggests the treatment for frozen shoulders in the following steps: Oleation, swedana, basti and nasya karma. Along with this Ayurveda recommends a combination of healthy diet and lifestyle changes that will help in management of the condition and by avoiding the vitiation of doshas further. Massage therapy is also suggested to loosen up muscle strain and help in relief from pain. This line of treatment of frozen shoulder helps not only in reversing the condition, but also helps in avoiding the same in future.

“The ayurvedic approach of disease looks for the root cause and not merely the symptoms. The basic principles of Ayurveda consider an individual human a specific identity and hence his treatment giving importance to the treatment of the patient rather than the treatment of the disease.”
“Since Ayurveda focuses on the root-cause of the disease, it effectively reduces the risk of severe health complications arising out of the untreated underlying cause. Patients who complete their Ayurveda treatment have a reduced risk of health complications later.”
"Heal your body naturally with 5000-year-old knowledge of Ayurveda and Modern Science. From its authenticity, structured approach and personalisation play a very important role in complementing the effect of medicines as well as sustaining the benefit of treatment after the medicines have ended."
In order to properly manage the illness, Ayurveda also prescribes a mix of a balanced diet (ahar) and lifestyle adjustments (vihar).
The answer can be found in Ayurveda's initial thinking. According to Ayurveda, we are all susceptible to all ailments. And in Ayurveda, this is referred to as Prakriti.
Prakriti is concerned with the body's genes and interior environment.
Epigenetics is a new field of medicine that is being discussed in modern medicine. Gene expression alone cannot produce a problem, according to this new knowledge of the body's genetic constitution, unless it is triggered by diet and lifestyle.
As a result, we usually advise patients with Cerebrospinal Ataxia to maintain their food and lifestyle limitations for the remainder of their lives.
