Frozen shoulder

[Gale K.]

I've recently been diagnosed with a frozen shoulder. I had no idea that this condition is so painful! I am getting PT and had a cortisone injection (which helped), but I am so frustrated with finding exercise that I can do. Basically, I can do walking workouts and some gentle rebounding. I've tried Classical Stretch, but it just doesn't motivate me. Most yoga hurts. Weights are pretty much out of the question (my beloved kettlebells--forget about it!). Even the reformer causes problems.

My ortho says that this will take a many months to work through, so I am pretty discouraged. I think I need to just do the walking workouts and PT, but if anyone who has "been there" has any suggestions or experience to share, I would be appreciate it!
