Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

If your shoulder feels stiff, painful and hard to move, you might be dealing with Frozen Shoulder - a condition where the shoulder capsule thickens and tightens, restricting movement over time. It often develops gradually, worsening before it gets better, and can take months to years to fully recover.

Treatment matters: Early diagnosis, guided physiotherapy, and in some cases, injections or keyhole surgery can help restore mobility and relieve pain.

If shoulder stiffness is holding you back, it’s time to get it checked.

An incredible few days with Medacta International!

Dr Muhammad Manjra and Dr Scott Tink travelled to Austria and Switzerland to connect with world-class surgeons and see the precision that goes into every Medacta implant.

Day 1 – Graz, Austria

They were welcomed by Prof Patrick Sadoghi and his team. A brilliant session diving into his workflow, tips and tricks using the SpheriKA medial pivot knee replacement system.

Day 2 – Vienna, Austria

Scott and Muhammad were hosted by Prof Jochen G. Hofstaetter and his team at the Spiesing Orthopaedic hospital in Vienna, to gain further insights into the exciting world of AMIS - Anterior Minimally Invasive Surgery of the hip. His mastery of these techniques and meticulous soft tissue handling were inspiring to watch. Such a privilege to scrub in for these cases.

Final Stop – Switzerland

A fascinating tour of Medacta Headquarters, hosted by Tomas Rabasco (VP) and team.

Highlights included:

💧 A high water purification plant supplying the entire factory, where already world-class water is further distilled and ultra-purified before touching any implant.

🔩 Seeing even the smallest components, like a spinal locking screw cap, undergo triple quality checks, chemical washing, sterilisation and gamma radiation before being released.

The level of detail, precision and passion for quality at Medacta is inspiring - the surgeons all left with great learnings, renewed energy and deeper partnerships.

It was an amazing week in Pretoria at the annual SAOA Congress. Monday was an action packed day of patellofemoral topics with amazing insights from Miho Tanaka. It continued with fantastic presentations from Mark Bowditch, president of BOA and Prof Paul Tornetta from Boston.

It was so good to catch up with all old friends and colleagues across the country.

It feels so good to be back in Durban this week after a year away in Bristol… There’s nothing quite like returning to the place where it all began - familiar faces, familiar streets and the energy of the Agile Ortho practice that I’ve missed so much. Grateful for the journey, the growth and now, the return. Let’s get back to doing what we love 💪🏽
