Frozen Shoulder Rehab Protocol with Diathermy
Understanding Frozen Shoulder and How RET‑CET Helps
Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is a painful and limiting condition where shoulder joint mobility becomes progressively restricted. Standard rehab includes physiotherapy, stretching, and heat therapy. RET CET diathermy is now widely used in sports medicine and rehabilitation clinics to accelerate mobility recovery. Using 448kHz RF energy, RET CET therapy reduces inflammation, loosens fibrous adhesions, and improves blood flow to the shoulder capsule—providing deep, targeted thermal effects without discomfort.
| Frozen Shoulder Phase | RET CET Effect |
|---|---|
| Freezing (inflammation) | CET reduces pain and inflammation |
| Frozen (stiffness) | RET improves capsule elasticity |
| Thawing (recovery) | Combined mode restores mobility |
Step-by-Step Rehab Protocol Using RET CET
A comprehensive frozen shoulder treatment plan with RET CET includes:
- Phase 1 – Pain Relief: CET mode on anterior shoulder and deltoid, 10 minutes at mild thermal range.
- Phase 2 – Deep Therapy: RET mode on capsule and posterior shoulder, 15 minutes for heat diffusion.
- Phase 3 – Stretch & Mobilize: Passive movement immediately after therapy, while tissues are still warm.
| Session Element | Duration | Goal |
|---|---|---|
| CET superficial heating | 10 min | Reduce pain and loosen upper tissue |
| RET deep focus on capsule | 15 min | Soften adhesions and improve glide |
| Active stretching | 5–10 min | Restore functional ROM |
Who Benefits Most from This Protocol?
This RET CET protocol is especially effective for:
- Office workers with sedentary shoulder stiffness
- Athletes recovering from rotator cuff strain
- Elderly clients with reduced mobility
- Post-operative shoulder rehabilitation
Results typically show within 4–6 sessions, with measurable improvement in mobility and pain reduction.
| Client Type | RET CET Value |
|---|---|
| Senior | Gentle thermal care for mobility |
| Athlete | Post-injury support and flexibility gain |
| Desk worker | Alleviate chronic tension |
