QUESTION:
I have frozen shoulder and it's extremely painful! Are there any natural relief remedies or cures for this condition that work? Please help.
ANSWER:
Frozen shoulder (also known as adhesive capsulitis) occurs when the fibers in the shoulder joint tighten up and restrict movement. It's a very common problem, but thankfully, quite an easy one to fix. Here's 5 of the best natural and home remedies you might want to consider trying...
Natural Remedy for Frozen Shoulder #1... Magnesium and Boron: Magnesium and boron are two of the most important nutrients for joint and muscle fiber health (yes, they're even more important than calcium). A deficiency of these essential minerals will result in joint and muscle stiffness and even a total "seizing" of the joint.
To get your daily supply of magnesium a
transdermal magnesium spray will be required. These are relatively cheap to purchase and last for months. You can also easily make your own for even less cost. Here's what you do...
-What You’ll Need
1/2 cup of Magnesium Chloride Flakes (
like these)
1/2 cup of Distilled Water
Glass Bowl
Spray Bottle to Store the Mixture
-Directions
Boil the ½ cup of distilled water and tip into the glass bowl
Add the ½ cup of magnesium chloride flakes
Stir the mixture until the magnesium chloride flakes are dissolved.
Leave to cool completely then store in the spray bottle
-How to Use
Spray the oil on your arms, legs, and stomach once a day using 10-15 sprays per application. You’ll find that it may tingle on your skin, especially the first few times you use it. This is normal and means it’s doing its job. Gently massage the oil in and leave on for at least an hour before showering and using a natural skin moisturizer afterwards.
For your daily dose of boron, the simplest and cheapest way is to mix up a specially made batch of Borax and water, then drink this concoction throughout the day. Now, before you get put off by this (borax is actually extremely safe when used as directed in the article below), please take the time to read this incredible article in full...

Home Remedy for Frozen Shoulder #2... Vitamin D and Vitamin K2: Both of these nutrients are crucial for keeping the calcium in your bones (and joints), so supplementing with vitamin D and K2 is definitely one of the standard "must do's" for successfully treating frozen shoulder. Vitamin D also regulates your hormones - and normalized hormones means better cell regeneration in the joints and tendons. Thankfully,
vitamin D and vitamin K2 can easily be bought together. You need at least 5000 IU's of vitamin D (combined with at least 50 micrograms of K2) each day for optimum results, so be sure that you take in this amount daily.
Natural Treatment for Frozen Shoulder #3... Tumeric and Ginger. Tumeric and ginger are two of the best natural anti-inflammatories and pain relievers in existence! When you have frozen shoulder, you'll also have pain and chronic inflammation. And relieving the pain and inflammation is paramount for the healing process to occur. So be sure to make up a tasty tumeric milk tea and drink twice daily (morning and night are the best times). Here's an easy recipe you can follow that doesn't require a lot of prep time...

Natural Cure for Frozen Shoulder #4... DMSO: Many sufferers of frozen shoulder have received excellent results by simply massaging/rubbing some DMSO on their shoulder morning and night. DMSO is especially good if you have nerve damage that's causing your frozen shoulder. Just make sure the DMSO you purchase is pharmaceutical grade (
such as these ones) or it wont be as effective.
Natural Remedy for Frozen Shoulder #5... Acupuncture and Cold Showers: Acupuncture helps to eliminate the specific trigger points in the joint that cause frozen shoulder. Taking regular cold showers or using a nice cold compress on the shoulder joint also provides some terrific relief. For optimum results, be sure to use both in conjunction with each other.
In addition to these, don't forget to do some regular stretching. Just make sure you don't overdo it though. Pain is a warning sign that something isn't right, so if it begins to hurt excessively, back off and lighten the stretching.
So hopefully these tips and recommendations help you out with your frozen shoulder.
Good luck and all the best to you!
