Right, he states 12 sessions before declaring conservative treatment successful or failed.

Exactly! Unless you can afford to stay for a month - how would you get in the desired 12 sessions. I wish people who comment on treatments, surgeries, exercise, PT, would come back and elaborate in more detail. Some just post something we all find interesting or helpful, then they disappear!

Ha, ha, maybe so. It's frustrating when ppl say something helped them - but then offer no details or helpful info. I often wonder if they are legit!

I have family and friends in Chicago so I will check him out when I go visit-maybe in September. I think you need at least 2-3 weeks of treatment with one person to see if it helps. I have been seeing Art Ando for 9 months and I am 50-60% better-but have plateued and looking for some other options. I think time and rest from repeitive work has been the best thing for me.

once my pt got my fascia to loosen up i could adjust my first rib myself but i dont have the same scalene problems that most of you have
12 sessions is nothing, you have to wait years to figure this stuff out

Why would you strengthen a muscle that isn't weak and refers pain into the neck?

We were discussing treatment duration earlier in this thread. In a comment on the Stoxen post from 10 days ago, Stoxen wrote:
"Many patients who read the article have called from around the world flew into Chicago to visit me at Team Doctors and had their TOS resolved in a matter of days with our 8-12 hour/day round the clock treatments." He say "days". I'm guessing that means 3 - 5, maybe 3 - 10. But as mentioned before, each TOS case can be different. I do wonder if getting 8 hours of treatment in a day would be overbearing. |
