Acupuncture for cryptogenic shoulder joint pain / stiffness / frozen shoulder

Acupuncture for cryptogenic shoulder joint pain, transferred and recommended from neurologic doctor.
This case as the patient first visit, her left arm totally unable to move or lift, even try hard on her shoulder but the joint seem losing function. With x-ray, neurologic examination, there’s no any injury seen on the joint, we called as cryptogenic joint problem ( unknown reason).
After first session of acupuncture, she felt the joint released; after second session, her left arm could lift; after the third, she showed us how she lift and maintain 10 seconds; the forth, she lift and maintain almost 1 min.
For the last several sessions she could lift arm and over 1 min, as well her hyperacidity and insomnia as she complained when first visit all improved.
During treatment if the pain appears or patient feel more sensitive to the pain sensation, it’s because the circulation comes active, through the transection time, the joint also going recovery.

Last but not least , regular stretching the shoulder is the best prevention for frozen shoulder, combining customized diet, boosting the healing speed.
