I am 29 years old, and I have Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (suspected), severe tightness in my neck muscles, scar tissue in much of my neck (according to my MT), misaligned vertebrae at C6, T1, T2, and T3 (according to an X-ray), pain down my arms and wrists, pain in my low back, and pain in my left knee.

I am still holding a job, but the physical health issues have already started to massively affect my career. I am trying to turn things around at 29 so that I do not have even worse problems at 49, but so far my progress has been minimal. I can get pretty depressed at times, but your progress reports are a bit of inspiration. Keep up the hard work.
Question is why did you get TOS. Was it trauma or poor posture or both? Pardon me if you have answered this before.
Misaligned vertebra are because of muscle spasms. What this tells me is that your cervico thoracic junction is under stress thanks to muscle spasms. So if you fix the stress, then the body will normalize. So why is that stress there?

Have you had your pelvis checked? Is one leg shorter than the other? Or was it trauma to the neck causing one side to overactivate?
