Pilates and Yoga Therapy for Frozen Shoulder in Arlington, MA
Frozen shoulder is slow, painful, and deeply frustrating — and the movement you're able to do at each stage matters enormously to how it resolves.
Working With the Stages
Frozen shoulder moves through freezing, frozen, and thawing phases, and what helps in one phase can aggravate another. In the painful freezing stage we work gently, protecting the joint and keeping the rest of the body mobile. As the shoulder begins to thaw, we progressively restore range and rebuild strength through the shoulder girdle.
Why Individual Sessions
A group class can't accommodate a shoulder that won't lift overhead. One-on-one, every exercise is adapted to your current range, and we work on the surrounding structures — thoracic spine, ribcage, breath — that a frozen shoulder quietly restricts.
My Approach
Sessions combine Pilates mat work, props, and studio equipment with yoga therapy tools, drawing on my certifications in both. The goal is a practice you continue at home between sessions, because consistency matters more than intensity with this condition.
