Frozen shoulder 03553...Canada
A 60-year-old lady contacted the practitioner with complaint of pain and stiffness in her left shoulder. She had been suffering for the past 6 months and was given a diagnosis of frozen shoulder. She was prescribed Durotram OD and Ibuprofen BD that were helping her to some extent with respect to pain, but her shoulder was still stiff. Moreover, she was seeking a quicker relief and wanted to take vibrionics alongside her allopathic medications.
In the past, her right shoulder had the same problem that was cured by allopathic treatment. She attributed her condition to long hours of working in the garden that involved raking leaves and lifting heavy items.
On 15 November 2016, she was given:
CC12.1 Adult tonic + CC15.1 Mental & Emotional tonic + CC20.1 SMJ tonic + CC20.3 Arthritis + CC20.4 Muscles & Supportive tissue...TDS
Two weeks later she reported that the pain in her left shoulder was 90% relieved and that she was very happy with the remedy. The shoulder still hurt when she lay on that side and she also felt intermittent dull ache. At that point, the practitioner who is a physiotherapist recommended cane exercises. She was also continuing the exercises that was recommended by her GP. In mid-December, she had negligible pain and more movement in her shoulder. She was advised to continue with the remedy at the same dosage.
In early January 2017, she reported having no pain but her shoulder still did not have a full range of movement. The following month, she completely recovered, and hence discontinued both Vibrionics and allopathic treatment. As of August 2017, the condition has not recurred. Her arm does tend to stiffen when she gets into laborious work or lifts heavy items, but it subsides when she does her exercises.
