Frozen Shoulder: Present and Future provides insights into one of the most mysterious diseases of the human body, frozen shoulder, a condition characterized by severe shoulder pain and functional restriction of shoulder motion. About 4% of the general population develops a frozen shoulder, with numbers rising to 59% in patients with diabetes mellitus. It curiously only develops between the age of 40 and 60 years, affects more women than men, and seems to be more common in patients with sedentary jobs. Disease duration varies between 1 and 3 years and consequently has a large impact on health and economic well-being.

Filip Struyf is a professor at the department of Rehabilitation Sciences and Physiotherapy of the University of Antwerp, Belgium. At the University, he coordinates research within the field of musculoskeletal disorders, more specifically in frozen shoulder. Filip is editor of the Dutch/Flemish journal of Sports Medicine and co-founder and board member of the Flemish Shoulder Network. He has published over 90 PubMed cited articles, contributed to several shoulder books, and teaches courses on shoulder assessment and rehabilitation at both national and international level. Filip was recently invited by the well-respected journal “Nature Reviews Disease Primers to write an article on frozen shoulder. Finally, Filip combines his academic work with the assessment and treatment of patients with shoulder pain in a private clinical practice. Recently, Filip was awarded as world leading expert in shoulder pain according to Expertscape (http://expertscape.com/ex/shoulder+pain).
