Hi Maggyie,

I was just reading here and after seeing your mention of computer work & hand pains, neck pain, headaches - I just wanted to suggest that you might want to read a bit on our Thoracic Outlet Syndrome {TOS} forum.
Just in case some of those symptoms sound familiar.

How is your overall posture & computer set up?

Head held forward of the body?
shoulders rolled forward or hunched often?
one shoulder higher than the other?
can you hold your hands up in the stick em up position without symptoms/or pain increases
more in the TOS sticky threads {sticky threads -look for green circle icon with black arrow up in the section near the top of the thread list}

Any prior car accidents{whiplash}, sports injuries, hits, falls etc - to the upper body? those can be a factor in spinal misalignment {I have some info on that in the TOS sticky too - under chiropractic}

If it is work related/posture related most likely a very good PT would help, but poor PT usually will not help and may make things worse.
If PT does not feel like it is helping, or making things worse, we as clients need to speak up, if they don't listen and don't make adjustments to our care they are not good at their job.
