I’m a board certified family physician and have worked as a primary care medical doctor both in New York and in Southern California. Then I suddenly became a miserable, suffering patient with two frozen shoulders–the left shoulder for around 6 months, and right shoulder for the past 2-1/2 months. Having Dr. O’s MCD (Manual Capsular Dissection) Procedure performed was the best decision I ever made. Watch her video testimonial!
Dr. Sun-Ling Chen, M.D., California, USA
In my capacity as a duly qualified medical physician, I have witnessed excellent results with numerous patients who have undergone Dr. O’s MCD (Manual Capsular Dissection) Procedure for adhesive capsulitis frozen shoulder. All of these patients had attended numerous treatment sessions with various health practitioners and/or therapists with little or no results. See More Testimonials!
Dr. Eric Silver MD, FCFP, CAFCI, Toronto, Canada
As a medical rheumatologist, I have seen numerous patients with adhesive capsulitis frozen shoulder, with less than satisfying treatment results. A friend of mine who suffered from frozen shoulder for one year, had asked me to attend her MCD Procedure. After less than an hour of non-invasive manipulation of her shoulder with Dr. Oolo-Austin’s neuro-muscular treatment, my friend could lift her arm up above her head (see picture). There were also 3 other patients there who had undergone Dr. O’s MCD Procedure for frozen shoulder the day before. They also showed the same outstanding results. See More Testimonials!
Dr. Erika Simon, M.D., M.Sc., Budapest, Hungary
45 minutes after the MCD Procedure and with no surgery, magic happened! I could raise my arm above my head and regain functional range of motion. Dr. Oolo-Austin is for real, he actually cures frozen shoulders. While I was at the World Frozen Shoulder Clinic, a constant flow of patients were coming from all over the world for treatment of their frozen shoulders. Everyone who had the MCD Procedure came out with big smiles moving their affected arms. It was overwhelming to watch. Thank you Dr. Oolo-Austin for taking care of me and giving me my life back!

Frozen Shoulder, also known in the medical community as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition that leads to a painful loss of range of motion in the shoulder joint. It causes persistent shoulder pain, inflammation and stiffness in the connective tissue of the shoulder, and the condition is known to gradually worsen over time. When frozen shoulder occurs, its persistent symptoms can make daily tasks extremely painful and challenging.
Frozen shoulder causes the capsule surrounding the shoulder joint to contract and form scar tissue, which causes a painful restriction in range of motion. Without proper treatment, this stubborn shoulder condition can last for years.
Learn more about Frozen Shoulder
Many frozen shoulder sufferers try a number of different therapies, without success, before they discover the World Frozen Shoulder Clinic. Patient histories often reveal visits to a family physician or physical therapist that were unable to relieve pain or restore the frozen shoulder’s range of motion. All too often, frozen shoulder symptoms are mistaken for other shoulder conditions, such as a rotator cuff injury or shoulder labrum tear, setting patients on a path towards more and more pain medications, steroid injections and shoulder surgery recommendations.
If you have found that the pain and restricted range of motion from your shoulder condition is having a major impact on your quality of life, the World Frozen Shoulder Clinic has a message for you: you are not alone. Rest assured, there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Over the years, our frozen shoulder treatment, the MCD procedure has helped thousands of patients treat frozen shoulder symptoms, make a full recovery and take back control of their lives. This one-day, non-surgical intervention is world-renowned for its exceptionally high success rate at “unfreezing” the shoulder capsule to provide immediate relief from shoulder pain and restore range of motion.
We are constantly refining our techniques, which has led to some innovative breakthroughs to improve patient comfort during this life-changing shoulder manipulation.
We utilize specialized, ultrasound guided local anesthetics and IV administered analgesics. The patient is under a twilight zone sedation so that the muscles have tonicity and provide feedback. This process is much safer than a general anesthetic where the muscles are in a flaccid state of paralysis. With this, the patient can experience absolutely no pain during the procedure!
Our protocol for frozen shoulder treatment uses a strict screening and qualification process to ensure the highest possible probability of treatment success. As such, not everyone qualifies, since there is a wide range of possible underlying conditions and complicating factors. That said, we do everything possible to make sure that each and every qualified candidate makes a full recovery.
We closely examine every patient’s shoulder joint issues with scrupulous care and adapt the MCD Procedure to address their unique and specific idiosyncrasies. Although no two frozen shoulders are the same, we strive to help all patients achieve the same result after their one-day procedure: pain-free shoulders and a renewed range of motion!
Developed by Dr. O, the Manual Capsular Dissection (MCD) Procedure, is a non-surgical intervention to quickly cure adhesive capsulitis frozen shoulder and restore shoulder function.
This medical breakthrough has fundamentally changed how frozen shoulders are treated, thanks to a 98% success rate at restoring range of motion and functionality to frozen shoulders.
This unique method involves isolating the scar tissue inside and outside the shoulder capsule (i.e. the glenohumeral joint, where the arm bone meets the shoulder blade and rotator cuff) and liberating it through the use of specific patient movements in conjunction with specialized shoulder joint mobilization procedures. Unlike arthroscopic surgery, the MCD Procedure is completely non-invasive and does not involve cutting into the shoulder.
Usually completed in about an hour, people are surprised at how quickly a frozen shoulder treated with the MCD procedure responds. Even patients with debilitating shoulder pain and stiffness leave the clinic the same day with complete shoulder function nearly restored.
Following the completion of their scheduled rehabilitation and mobility exercises, patients are able to take on regular activities that had become impossible because of their shoulder joint pain and stiffness. Learn More About our MethodDeveloped by Dr. Allan Gary Oolo-Austin, (“Dr. O”) the MCD (Manual Capsular Dissection) Procedure is an unprecedentedly successful, non-surgical procedure to cure frozen shoulder.
This breakthrough medical procedure will soon become accepted globally as a rapid and effective treatment for adhesive capsulitis frozen shoulder.
