I have been suffering from frozen shoulder for 9 - 12 months. I have been in physical thereapy for 2+ months, with only insignificant improvement in pain and ROM. I am wondering how hard I should push myself in physical therapy? Sometimes I feel like the therapy is making the pain worse, and since I'm not really increasing my ROM, what's the point?
Thank you for your opinions....

Hi everyone I'm 2 weeks post surgery and already I've had a huge improvement, that much improved I should be back at work next week. The surgery was painless until 16hrs later but even that was bearable. I had both physiotherapy and remedial massage and I'd go remedial massage over physio and even post surgery the massage is helping way more than the physio.
As far as no pain no gain, unless you want someone to pull on your arm viciously to tear all the capsule adhesions it's definitely no pain physiotherapy unless you want your FS to last longer than it needs to.
