Frozen Shoulder Research Using Quantum-Touch

Quantum-TQuantum-Touch (QT) is an easy to learn method of hands-on healing that uses the scientific principles of resonance and entrainment - combined with very specific breathing techniques and simple body awareness exercises - to create a powerful, yet natural, field of healing energy. There is no physical manipulation in QT. Only the lightest, most gentle touch is used. QT has been tested in clinical settings and used in hospitals and operating rooms.

I treated 8 men and 2 women who were suffering from "Frozen Shoulder" also called adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that causes restriction of motion in the shoulder joint. The cause of a frozen shoulder is not well understood, but it often occurs for no known reason. Frozen shoulder causes the capsule (capsular ligament)which surrounds and holds the shoulder in place to contract and form scar tissue. There are 3 stages of frozen shoulder:

Painful/Freezing stage: the most painful stage of a frozen shoulder. Motion is restricted, but the shoulder is not as stiff as the frozen stage. This painful stage typically lasts 6-12 weeks.

Frozen stage: During the frozen stage, the pain usually eases up, but the stiffness worsens. The frozen stage can last 4-6 months.

Thawing stage: The thawing stage is gradual, and motion steadily improves over a lengthy period of time. The thawing stage can last more than a year.
Clients ages ranged from 55-74 years of age. The amount of time that they had painful shoulders ranged from 4-8 months in length at the time they saw me for the first treatment. I measured each client for movement away from the body to the side or abduction and also to the front (flexion) of the body and back (extension) of the body, like the motion used in walking. I broke up my research into 2 groups: 1^st group of 5 people got Basic Quantum-Touch only.

The 2^nd group of 5 got Core Transformation 1 only, this is an advanced technique.

I treated each person for 60 minutes per session for a total of 4 sessions. I placed 1 women in each group.

Group 1 Basic Quantum-Touch

Group 1: Average range of motion before 1^st session:

Abduction or away from the body to the side: 20-35 degrees
