In this episode, I sit down with physical therapist Dr. Preeti Jha to take a deep look at frozen shoulder—especially why it’s so common during perimenopause and menopause. We break down the early warning signs most women overlook, the three stages of frozen shoulder, and why the first phase often feels like “mysterious shoulder pain” rather than a mobility problem.
Dr. Preeti explains the hormonal connection, other risk factors such as diabetes and inflammation, and the very specific movements that tend to get restricted first. We also talk about why early intervention makes such a big difference and how intentional end-range movement can stop the progression before things truly freeze.
You’ll also hear her whole-body approach to blending orthopedic and pelvic floor therapy, plus her mission to keep women strong, active, and confident well into their later years. If shoulder stiffness has ever caught you off guard—or you want to protect your mobility as you age—this episode delivers practical guidance you can use right away.
