I tell you guys, try the global posture reeducation if you Able to find one not too far from your place. I am in Montreal Canada and fortunately we have a few of these around the area here but unfortunately there's not much in United States. GPR where develop in France a few years ago and I believe that's why we have lots of these here in Quebec, (French Canadian province). On my opinion it's the first thing to do when you are the diagnosed with TOS. I tried Chiropractor, PT and I had a rib recession as well. The GPR ( Global posture reeducation ) is the the only treatment who make a difference and lots of people said the same. You should really think about it.

I can't find one in my area, I will ask my PT is she knows about this.

I can't believe there is not more than that in the United States. I know hockey is not popular at all in Arizona (-; but lots of superstar players I've been treat with that technique.

I did a quick internet search and could find no listing for a global posture reeducation therapist in or near R. I. I did a New England search and did not find any either. The closest that I have seen is in New York.

Some physical therapy listings mention posture reeducation, but not specifically the souchard method.

That's too bad. I'm going to do some research tomorrow to see if I can find what kind of reeducation posture I have to practice. What i really like for the Posture reeducation is there is no stretching, or pretty much which it was the worst thing to do for me. The breeding is really important, its pretty hard to do but that's one of the most important parts to do. Ask the physical therapy listings mention posture reeducation you was talking about to see if the do neck stretching, if you on my opinion you should stay away. Go take a look here, you can see some example of the exercises i am doing but it's hard to explain the breathing method. https://www.google.ca/search?q=r%C3%...obale&tbm=isch

Thats one good thing to practice 3 minutes twice a day. Put your back against the wall and try to do what you can see in the picture. Obviously the right posture is on the right side. https://www.google.ca/search?q=r%C3%...ml%3B375%3B319

Alexis,
Did you say that I should avoid neck stretches?

Alexis,
Did you say that you find it best to avoid neck stretches? Early on with the chiropractor, he empathicaly said "do not do any neck stretches". I thought it was odd, in the past that is the first thing I have been told to do for neck spasms.

Depends for who. For some people it works great but for some other like me it's worst. I think it depends at what TOS stage you are.
