What causes frozen shoulders?

Due to a prolonged lousy diet and lifestyle, air movement (Vata) in the body continually increases. This vitiated air and toxins (aam) get deposited in the shoulder area and dries up the synovial fluid (Shleshak Kapha) around the shoulder joint. This drying process reduces the lubrication in between the joints. Thus, shoulder muscles and tissues become rough, dry, and lose their elasticity gradually.  The toxic Aama creates swelling of shoulder capsules, making it thick, tighten, and stiff, restricting the shoulder and arm movements with severe pain.  Finally, it causes Frozen shoulder.  At night, the pain spreads to your hand and neck, making it unbearable.
