YEARS OF PAIN NEARLY GONE! THANK YOUUU

Fantastic information thank you. I love that these are all things you can do at home with minimal cost and great rewards.

Thank you, this helped me immensely.

Thank you! I was having weird pain/pressure in my neck/clavicle/pectoral area and was getting worried. I have been wearing posture garments so those muscles are being worked a lot and I dont know why but I skipped the thought that I would need to stretch and massage them. These techniques provided immediate relief!

Holy shit, why did my physical therapist never tell me about the scalene muscles? So much tension has just been relieved. Like...I don't remember my neck feeling this relaxed....ever!

Excellent! Thank you for your explanation and exercises.

Thanks for this very clear and concise explanation plus the moves! Grateful

You have to love the concept of a physiotherapy video showing the anatomy of bones and muscles and their movement where the instructor is fully clothed.

My collarbone actually popped out and was protruding under the skin (extremely painful). It has since gone back into place, but still painful. I had a feeling my first rib was involved. Thanks so much!! Your exercise has helped with the pain.

thanks for the info and demonstration!

Thank you for the information, it helped a lot. Felt like scalene on left side was very tight and causing pain. Felt much better after stretching it. I will continue! Makes me happy!

Wow instant relief. Thank you for sharing this information!

I m going to give all these a good try , hoping to get rid of that numbness in the first section of my left index finger !.....been numb for 6 years !! appreciate the detail explanation and directions

Superb. Neck and shoulder pain gone but more importantly my posture is reset to a healthy one. Thank you!

OMG, thank you so much for making this video, so helpful!!!!

Freakin awesome. I had to figure my TOS on my own, without my Dr or Chiro after many many visits and couple of x-rays., from MT Bike fall 3 months ago. Video is great and the explanations and info are what I need to put my head straight and recover. This will surely aid my recovery, by affirming what my true condition is, and is so very empowering as to how I self repair, as I've done so many times before. Rest and controlling pain won't do it, (and screws up posture). I've subscribed and will watch the other videos. Thanks

I want to add that the surgical options aren’t evil. If you’ve done 6 months of PT with no relief you may want to consider a surgeon who specializes in the procedure. I went through three years of increasing debilitating pain that I got major relief from after a two hour surgery. Even after having the scalenectomy and first rib resection I woke up with better posture than before. I was in less pain and my sleeping heart rate went down from 105 to 65. It wasn’t a fix all for me, but I would do it again.

So are you saying you have no pain in the upper body following this miracle surgery? Because thoracic outlet syndrome isnt just a first rib elevation with hypertonic scalenes. Its hypertonic, anterior scalene, hypertonic middle scalene, hypertonic posterior scalene, hypertonic pec minor, hypertonic coracobrachialis, hypertonic bicep short head, hypertonic subclavius, hypertonic intercostals, hypertonic trapezius, hypertonic middle triceps and the entire upper body on that side is soaking in inflammation that trips this muscle tension to all of these 10 muscles surrounding the outlet. But your doctor cuts out two muscles and a rib and all of a sudden all the other muscles are not hypertonic and the inflammation in the entire upper body on that side just drained away. Im sorry but after treating hundreds of TOS cases this comment is just giving TOS sufferers the wrong idea of what is really going on with a severe TOS condition. If you are reading this and have TOS you need to understand this cannot happen by the laws of nature

I was getting more and more hunched over. Pain from all the nerves in my brachial plexus being compressed. Just like you I couldn’t raise my arm anymore and then my arm started to be colder than the other one. Once they went in they found that the rib had been broken and a lot of scar tissue kept building up around it. I still have some pain and numbness, but nothing like I had before. PT actually works now. So I still go to break up the scar tissue that’s still there and what buildup came from surgery. I would say it took about two full years after the surgery to feel much better. The first six months were more painful because of all the healing. I would do it all again though knowing what I know now.

Don't listen to this dude. If its its purely neurogenic TOS the chance of succes with surgery is relatively low plus you'll lose range of motion . Regardless your going to have to have thoracic extension and work out the upper back muscles. This is due to muscle imbalances. Work on your posture .

Have a pinched nerve in this exact area. I can feel tingling to my thumbs. Will try to see if this releases it.

The scalene muscle is contracted. So stretching to the side actually involves using a 10 pound head pulling a contracted muscle to pull up on the first rib higher and higher into the outlet putting the artery, vein and nerves at risk of becoming compressed. We never stretch the scalenes in side bending. So many patients get worse after stretching scalene muscles with side bending of the neck. -

15 plus years suffering with this syndrome Thanks!!! Mousing makes this worse

So much going on with the scapulae. It's so hard to diagnose the root problem as a laymen watching videos. I hurt something in my upper neck during a power clean.... Cervical/upper thoracic pain when looking down. Oddly enough, after every next power clean workout, it feels a bit better. I think my rhomboid/serratus got over loaded on the eccentric catch during a few bad reps, and it allowed some scapular winging and forward rounding of my shoulders that caused some further strain in my cervical spine. Facepulls have helped my neck feel better, but I think serratus strength would help in the long term. I seems like straight arm scapula strength is always the answer to shoulder problems. Whenever I quit the corrective exercises for a while, I start getting stupid injuries.

weak deep neck flexors, weak rhomboids, weak post delt, weak rotator cuffs.... = tight scalenes = thoracic outlet syndrome, wrong tongue posture, cervical pain, weak voice, sinuses issues...

Would that be the scalene muscles triggering that as well? Thx so much!

Thank you for this video!! I am a PT always looking for new treatment ideas. I wonder if you can clarify something for me? During the stretch where you use a strap to depress the scalenes with deep breathing and shoulder elevation, you turn the head toward the affected side to relax the muscle. I thought the scalenes contract ipsilaterally to cause lateral flexion to the same side? Any input would be greatly appreciated :)

@melissaembree5242

2 жыл бұрын

@@seemarie hi Carissa. Basically, a side tilt of the head (as is seen in the stretch with the strap) is caused by contraction of the scalene muscle group on the same side (or ipsilateral side). I was wondering how you can stretch a muscle while it’s contracting, but, upon reviewing the video again I can see the benefit of stretching in this way as the muscle becomes shortened & allows for mobilization of the 1st rib.

I hope this comment wont be deleted because TOS sufferers need to know the truth. This is a great video to show self adjustment of the rib. However TOS is not about first rib elevation and scalene spasms. I wish it was that easy just to do a first rib adjustment and get lasting relief from TOS. For some of you commenting the miracle relief I wonder why this never happened in the 37 years I adjusted patients first rib with a severe TOS case. I have successfully reversed hundreds of cases of TOS in my career and since 2017 I have been dedicated to ONLY treating severe cases of TOS. You would call us when 15 doctors couldnt reverse your TOS. I had thoracic outlet syndrome as a chiropractic student 30 years ago. got the first rib adjusted which provided 2 hours of amazing relief until the muscles pulled it right back. This is predictable. What I have found after treating hundreds of severe TOS cases is the entire upper body on that side is severely inflamed. Out of hundreds of cases I have treated 100% of TOS sufferers have hypertonic, anterior scalene, hypertonic middle scalene, hypertonic posterior scalene, hypertonic pec minor, hypertonic coracobrachialis, hypertonic bicep short head, hypertonic subclavius, hypertonic intercostals, hypertonic trapezius, hypertonic middle triceps and the entire upper body on that side is soaking in inflammation that trips this muscle tension to all of these 10 muscles surrounding the outlet. Once the area becomes inflamed for more than a few months this inflammation flows through simple diffusion to surrounding muscles which become inflamed so there is Inflammation soaking all the muscles of the area. Specialized chemoreceptors called nociceptors measure the inflammation of a muscle and when it is high tell the brain and the brain responds by contracting the muscles of the surrounding area. "stiffness" Those muscles contract all day, get fatigued, damaged and more inflammation. Soon your condition spirals. Inflammation is so high it travels more down the arm causing compartment syndromes and up into the brain leading to mood disorders. In the brain, Inflammation steals tryptophan away from the production of serotonin leading to mood disorders in 95% of TOS patients like anxiety, depression, brain fog etc. It takes me 15 - 20 hours of deep tissue and vibration massage to reduce the inflammation to reduce hypertone to normal tone before Ill attempt to move the first rib. Why move a first rib or stretch a scalene when you have done nothing to reduce the inflammation that caused the scalene contraction that lifted the rib into the outlet in the first place. How many first rib adjustments do you get before you realize the more important trigger, the inflammation and do it right?

​@@jm213213 I did not want to mention this but I wrote a #1 bestseller on how to reverse TOS without surgery, invited to lecture at medical conferences on how to reverse TOS without surgery and treated hundreds of TOS cases successfully only treating TOS for the last seven years day in and day out. Every single one of them. It’s never just the scalenes. NOT ONE And every single case there are at least 10 muscles with severe inflammation that are contracting, twisting your entire upper body into across the state of pain and compressing the outlet. The scalene muscles are the focus for TOS ONLY because they have to be cut out with the rib to allow more space for the blood to flow out of the arm to prevent blood clots. This scalene focus throws everyone off as to what the reality is of TOS and that is more complex. So if your therapist is stretching the scalenes to the side you are in big trouble. If they only do 10 - 20 minutes of deep tissue on the scalenes each visit you have no chance to reverse your TOS. Not a chance! These 10 muscles that are always inflamed and contracted twisting your body into pain and compressing the outlet are the anterior scalene, middle scalene, posterior scalene, subclavius, for upper thoracic outlet syndrome compression related to sustain contractions, relative to body, lean i.e. leaning to the left too long, leaning to the right too long, leaning back too long Then there’s the lower thoracic outlet compression muscles, which are the subclavius again, the coracobrachialis, the bicep, short head, the pectoralis, minor muscle, the middle triceps, latissimus dorsi and the lower trapezius. The involuntary muscle contractions that twist and compress. The body from these muscles are related to sustained contraction of the shoulder, i.e. the use of the cell phone, leaving your arm out on the table with the mouse, shoulder bags, suitcases, etc.. With a moderate to severe Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, every single muscle in this group is inflamed and contracted without your permission Thats 10 muscles or so and 6-10 pressure points per muscle or 50 + pressure points x 2-3 minutes per point or 2.5 - 3.5 hours to reduce the inflammation of all of these muscles in one visit. If you dont get them all the inflammation dropped in the muscles you do treat fills back up from the ones you didnt by simple diffusion. You havent got a chance. Remember, muscles contract without you contracting them i.e. tight muscles because they’re responding to the level of inflammation in the area with messages coming from nociceptor or chemical receptor nerves So if your treatment approach does not involve moving every drop of inflammation out of these muscles by some means you haven’t got a chance to get out of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome . Also, this is not a sore neck, a sore shoulder, a little chest pain, this is a massive inflammation of the entire upper body on one or both sides that is so severe that it takes 20 to 25 hours of focused deep tissue on these 10 muscles or so Working 3 to 4 hours per visit because there are 50 individual pressure points to cover all these muscles just on one side So when you go for an office visit with 20 minutes of deep tissue and a few useless therapies that don’t address the information, you have about 80 visits to go before you get all the information out mathematically When you have a large cubic inch area of inflamed muscles to treat, you can’t put this three hour treatment that covers every single inch of all 10 of these muscles or 50 pressure points times 2 to 3 minutes in a 20 minute office visit There are doctors who treat you according to the business plan, which is the 20 minute deep tissue treatment and the two useless therapies and then you have doctors that treat you according to what you need which you need three hours sometimes two apply a pressure point to every single inch of every one of these muscles to get all of the inflammation out. Imagine your entire basement 3000 ft.² flooded and the insurance company stopping by saying that they’ll give you a bucket and two workers for a week to get it out. Do you go with that or do you determine that the project is too big for two workers and a couple of buckets? That’s why people get discouraged when they get treatment for Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and go to surgery, which is completely unnecessary in any case of TOS but just because the 20 minutes of deep tissue in the useless therapies after three or four weeks didn’t work and I guess that’s the next step That is a tragedy.

I stretched a TON and credit a lot of my recovery to that. Coldness and nerve zaps were my primary symptoms as well as a "glove like" feeling anywhere from the shoulder girdle down. I had a thoracic MRI with contrast, a cervical MRI, shoulder MRI and wrist MRI that all showed nothing (doctors had no fucking clue what we were looking for). 3 EMG's that showed nothing, ultrasound of the elbow (cubital tunnel) that showed nothing. Once I finally got in with a vascular surgeon who understood TOS they did a bilateral active ultrasound, both lying down and sitting up where I moved through a range of motion while receiving the ultrasound which showed a complete lack of arterial and venous flow in my right arm during movement (primarily when sitting/standing) and full arterial restriction in my left arm. From there we booked my right side scalenectomy and first rib resection, and did a CT scan with iodine contrast to confirm I hadn't had an aneurysm or clot, and operated just over 5 weeks ago. Symptoms are currently still present, but I had a man diddling my nerves with his hands for 5 hours....so it'll take a bit to chill out. Full recovery is 6 months.

They found my rib had been broken before and the scar tissue was getting out of control. Instead of taking two inches they had to take four. It’s been 11 months. The surgery didn’t fix everything so I’m doing PT on and off to help control it. It was worth it for me. I tried two years of PT beforehand, did the MRI (which almost always comes back negative) and then did the brachial plexus injection. I’m all in for PT, but learned the hard way that the non surgical preaching can become detrimental and dangerous for patients who suffer. The surgical approach is probably best for more patients than go that route because they’ve been convinced that surgery is of the devil 😂.
