For a TOS person, that's generally a bad idea as it often leads to flare ups. And if you lose circulation in your arms with an overhead reach as many TOS folks do then you don't want to be in that position for any length of time.

Also, these exercises are mostly a "lower back pain" approach which is what Goodman talks about most of the time. Most or all of what he teaches was created in that context, as opposed the to context of TOS.

Those things are true but at least he is acknowledging TOS, and I agree with him, when he says there are a lot of things that you have to fix yourself, a Dr. can't do it for you.
