Pendulum Exercises (for Frozen Shoulder)
for Shoulder Pain
Pendulum exercises allow gentle glenohumeral movement using gravity and pendular momentum, maintaining range of motion in frozen shoulder without aggravating capsular inflammation.
How it works
Uses gravity and gentle momentum to traction the glenohumeral joint, maintaining cartilage nutrition and preventing progressive capsular fibrosis. Does not load the inflamed capsule directly.
What to watch for
Frozen shoulder typically resolves over 1–3 years regardless of treatment. Pendulum exercises help maintain function during resolution. Do not force range of motion — respect the inflammatory stage.
