There are very few good PTs (see thread: New PT List). I finally found a good one! After so many bad.

She is targeting the area and doing rib mobilization and scalene stretching, etc. She seems to have zeroed right in on it and I have so much hope.

No one else knew what they were doing. And those nerve glides and all that junk, well, it just added.

At least this PT, wants me to never have something affect me bad. No pain, no gain DOES NOT apply to TOS.
My PT is doing rib mobilization as well. I was amazed at how much loosening my ribs improved the pain in my neck/shoulder. Plus I was completely unaware that I wasn't able to take full deep breaths...guess I just thought I was stressed. Feels good to breathe again! Just hoping eventually the affects trickle down into my arms/hands. My forearms/hands still get sore/numb. Hope it works out for you too!!
