Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is a condition in which the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint thickens and stiffens, physically restricting movement. Its distinguishing feature is this: even if someone else lifts the arm it will not pass a certain point — which is different from avoiding movement because of pain. The process runs in stages and each stage calls for a different approach; forceful stretching in the early painful stage makes things worse. In Bursa Nilüfer, Fzt. Bilal Kara first establishes which stage you are in.
Fzt. Bilal Kara provides one-to-one care for frozen shoulder at the clinic in Bursa Nilüfer — in Fethiye Mahallesi, on Kelebek Sokak, at a central point of Nilüfer, opposite the Fethiye covered market.
It is a short trip by car or public transport from İhsaniye, Odunluk, Balat, Özlüce, Ataevler, 23 Nisan and the surrounding areas. Every session is one-to-one, assessment-based and tailored to you.
The part not talked about in frozen shoulder is the condition left once movement comes back: a shoulder used little for months has lost noticeable strength. Even after range of motion improves, arm fatigue and difficulty with overhead work persist for that reason.
Fzt. Bilal Kara shifts the programme toward strength during the thawing stage. Scapular control and rotator cuff strength are measured; overhead loading isn't opened up until these measurements reach a certain level.

Overhead loading is opened up gradually once scapular control and rotator cuff strength reach a measured threshold.

Fzt. Bilal Kara · Bursa Nilüfer. Share your complaint; we plan the process together after the assessment.
A shoulder used little for months loses noticeable strength; range of motion and strength are two separate areas that need separate work.
It's opened up gradually once scapular control and rotator cuff strength reach a measured threshold.
It's measured by testing the shoulder-area muscles against resistance, and this is repeated at regular intervals.
For pain on lifting the arm, night pain and lost range: a programme that treats the whole shoulder girdle, not just the sore spot.
Hands-on techniques applied to joints and soft tissue, combined with exercise for a result that lasts.
Graded, measurement-based rehabilitation for joint problems and the period after orthopaedic surgery.

The sharp heel pain on the first step in the morning is often assumed to be a heel spur. But the real name for this condition is plantar fasciitis, and the two aren't the same thing.
