Took kid to PT for her back - spasms & Trps - hmmm upper back and lower back. I thought she was just complaining to get out of classes - me bad.

The PT who I think seemed to be pretty well informed on all things body related noted hypermobility right off the bat.
and explained how it can be a cause of troubles.
I was impressed by her overall knowledge, she also explained what she was doing and testing and the results as she went along.
Dang I wish I had found & gone to this dr and PT at the start of my RSI troubles!!

PT asked if we were German?? Yes- prob 80% for me and 70% for hubby- so kid is high % too.

This PT is into study of genetics,ancestry and body types etc.
it seems German types may have longer rib cages?
and she said the German upper body structure reacts often by knotting up "potato knots" she called it

tried to google but not coming up with the right search terms to find related info on the subject.

anyway it made me wonder as to if anyone here with TOS - does your ancestry include a predominate amount of German or near German bloodlines??
