Will you continue with these exercises and stretches?

I'm following a similar programme and have been for over two years with no affect. I'm adamant the nerve that fires the lower trap is compressed as my left side is beginning to anterior title now.

I also have numbness is the cheek and my hand swells is certain positions. Would you recommend an MRI?

* Lat Pulldowns
* Face pulls
* Scapular wall slides

All of the above works the mid to low traps, rhomboids, and lats. This helps pull the shoulders back and down which can further stretch out the thoracic area.

Most recenty, I've started Foundation Training. This focuses on strengthening the core which is defined as low back, glutes, and hamstrings, but it really helps to decompress the entire spine and promotes good posture.

So far so good, but I have a feeling that the presence of cervical ribs and my stubborness in the gym will keep getting me in trouble here and there.
