Pain, tingling, numbness, weakness, restricted movement of the arm, wrist and hand, pain in the neck, shoulder and back (paraspinal) muscles, occipital headaches may all be symptoms of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, caused by restrictions in the thoracic inlet. Since lymphatic drainage for the whole body drains into the venous system through this inlet, restrictions affect our health in many ways, including how well we clear infections and toxins, our breathing, circulation, neural activity, not to mention the debilitating effect of the symptoms. It is often a component in carpal tunnel syndrome. TOS often goes undiagnosed because the tension builds gradually over time; clients may not notice or exhibit all symptoms. Best known cause is repetitive overhead arm movement, but may include poor strenuous posture or static posture, as in assembly-line or computer work, injuries (often with whiplash), constant muscle tension in the shoulders, carrying loads. Almost all athletes have some form of TOS.
Come and learn how to help the body release tension at joints, in muscles and fascia from the inside-out, relieving pain without causing pain. Get longer lasting results than with massage alone. Help restore related alignment, function and well-being for your clients with this workshop, and enjoy the benefits of being on the table, too.
Relieve tension related to Thoracic Oulet Syndrome to include neck, shoulders and arms, scapula, clavicle and ribs. Anatomy. Body mechanics are part of every Ortho-Bionomy workshop.
