Came across Chroma's 2011 thread re "Breathing and Scalenes" recently in the process of doing some research, and wanted to bring the links she provided to you guys' attention.

Whether they are a cause or an effect of TOS, the articles written by Paul Ingraham and published on SaveYourself.ca about the role of respiratory and upper body postural dysfunction in this crazy disorder I think shed a lot of light.

Would love to hear your opinions and experiences re this stuff as it relates to your treatment(s) for TOS! Have any of you used a respiratory therapist, to learn diaphragmatic breathing, for example? Or a bodyworker attuned to the postural issues we face?

Maybe I'm slow, but I've just never put the two (breathing and posture) together before in a way that made so much profound sense!

Thanks,
Alison
