Frozen shoulder 03566...USA
A 56-year-old woman had been experiencing recurring pain in her right shoulder for the past 7 to 8 years. The episodes were linked to her menstrual cycle, typically occurring a few days before and during her periods. However, after menopause a year ago, the pain became constant and more severe, significantly limiting the mobility of her right arm. The pain was especially intense at night, lasting 8 to 10 hours, disturbing her sleep, and forcing her to lie on her back. Even a slight change in position would cause sharp, intense discomfort.
On 22 May 2018, she consulted a doctor who diagnosed her with frozen shoulder. She was advised to take over-the-counter pain relievers and undergo physiotherapy to improve mobility. She took ibuprofen every night but found little to no relief. Concerned about the side effects of prolonged use and discouraged by the lack of progress, she discontinued the medication after a month. After three weeks of painful and distressing physiotherapy sessions with no improvement, she stopped those too.
Several months later, a friend who had experienced similar symptoms recommended vibrionics. Encouraged by her friend’s success with this alternative approach, she decided to give it a try. On 5 Feb 2019, the practitioner gave her:
CC10.1 Emergencies + CC12.1 Adult tonic + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC20.1 SMJ tonic + CC20.2 SMJ pain + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue + CC20.7 Fractures…OD orally and in extra- virgin coconut oil mixed with corn starch, for external application; dosage was increased to TDS on 11 Feb.
Within a month on 10 March, she reported 50% improvement in both pain and mobility. By 31 March there was complete relief from pain, she was sleeping soundly through the night and had regained full range of motion in her right arm! On 2 May, dosage was reduced to BD and over the next few months, gradually tapered off before stopping on 25 Aug 2019.
Two years later in 2021, the practitioner met the patient again, and she confirmed that she has continued to do well with no recurrence of symptoms.
Editor’s note: CC20.4, combo for frozen shoulder includes CC20.2 which in turn includes CC20.1, so the latter two are not needed; also CC20.7 Fractures is superfluous.
