Frozen shoulder has a reputation for being mysterious and stubborn, but what if I told you that the shoulder isn’t the problem at all..?

In this episode of Three Questions with Meghann Koppele Duffy, I dig into what makes frozen shoulder one of the most misunderstood conditions in movement and rehab. I unpack why the “idiopathic” label might be missing the point and how curiosity (not aggressive treatment) often leads to the biggest breakthroughs. You’ll also hear my own experience with frozen shoulder and what it taught me about the power of sensory awareness, connection, and critical thinking.

In This Episode You’ll Hear:

• Why frozen shoulder might be your brain’s protective response, not a mechanical failure

• How the feet, jaw, and spine can shape shoulder mobility

• The hidden influence of hormones, aging, and sensory mapping on recovery

Whether you teach movement, treat clients, or just want to better understand your body’s signals, this episode will help you “unfreeze” the story you’ve been told about frozen shoulder.
