Ah yes, my old friend frozen shoulder. I got it in one shoulder for the first time a few years back--I think it came from using too much weight on the Nautilus upper body equipment. Either that or computer overuse, as I'm a graphics artist who hunches my shoulders when I'm stressed. Physical therapy helped, and I also took up yoga--NOT the hyperdrive American-style yoga, but easygoing Hatha yoga taught by a woman in her 70s! The stretching really helped. Later I eased off of yoga and my body had the nerve to get capsulitis in my other shoulder. Now I've got something similar in my hip joints. Stretching always helps, and I use the elliptical trainer, which is much easier on the joints and seems to be helping my hip joints.

I also tried acupuncture and massage, but probably needed more intensive therapy in order for them to work effectively.

I used to get trigger finger off and on for a while but haven't gotten it in the last 4 or 5 years for some reason.
