THORACIC OUTLET SYNDROME (TOS) TOS are a group of syndromes involving pressure on the brachial plexus. Each syndrome is named according the structure that is causing the compression. 1️⃣ ANTERIOR SCALENE SYNDROME: The fibres of the brachial plexus must pass through a narrow aperture between scalenes anterior and medius. Any increased tone in one of these muscles (usually anterior), will provide enough compression to produce symptoms. Scarring and adhesions from injuries can be causes of compression, particularly if found at the attachments of the scalenes. Dysfunction or misalignent of the cervical/thoracic spine may also be a contributing factor to this syndrome. 2️⃣ COSTOCLAVICULAR SYNDROME: Symptoms result in this case when the neurovascular bundle is tractioned between the clavicle and the first rib. This is often bilateral, indicating a symmetrical postural cause. 3️⃣ PECTORALIS MINOR SYNDROME: In this case, the compression occurs where the neurovascular bundle passes between the tendon of pectoralis minor and the coracoid process of the scapula. Tractioning is greatest with the arm in abduction, but even with the arm dependent, enough pressure from postural problems or tight pectoralis muscles can cause symptoms. TOS can also compress the subclavian/axillary artery and/or vein. CAUSES: Crutch use, joint subluxation, adhesions and scarring, muscular hypertonicity from postural dysfunction, trigger points, occupational stresses, emotion stresses, all of which lead to shallow breathing and poor sleeping posture. SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: All thoracic outlet syndromes feature paraesthesia in the arm, forearm, hand, and fingers. Symptoms are usually unilateral, but can be bilateral, particularly if postural dysfunction is a main cause. Anterior scalene syndrome is also noted for edema in the hands and fingers. The cadaver videos demonstrate nicely the brachial plexus of nerves with relationship to TOS. TOS can cause compression of any of these nerves. #Physiotherapy #Osteopathy #Fisioterapia #Osteopatia #Therapy #PhysicalTherapy #Pilates #Yoga #TOS #Fascia #Nerve #CrossFit #ThoracicOutletSyndrome #NerveEntrapment #ShoulderPain #ArmPain #NervePain #HandPain https://www.instagram.com/p/Cb-S5E2gctG/?utm_medium=tumblr

Here is my scar after my surgery from last December at Stanford to remove my first rib for my Venous Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (which was what was causing my clots all a long). It is very rare, and very hard to diagnose (as it took almost two years for them to find) but I’m very greatful that they did.

My first rib was causing compression on my subclavian vein, causing the blockage.

Crazy.

Each day is a blessing.

I really want to do aerial. I’ve been wanting to do it for a while now but looking forward through my recovery from trauma and looking into getting my physical health together doing this in the near future inspires me to advocate and get help for my thoracic outlet syndrome. I have from a birth defect because I have an extra set of ribs above my first ribs and I’ve been fearful of surgery and doing something about it but if I can do this in the future then I have motivation to advocate for myself and go through surgery.

I can do this! ✨💓 Even if I’m somewhat scared I can do this I’m ready! ☺️🌸

Making the invisible visible. I'm not sure if this is from pain, overuse, or some new symptom that I'll probably ignore for several months...I just know it's making sewing into A SUPER FUN challenge. #saidnobodyever My kingdom for a functional right hand again. 😣 . . #ehlersdanlossyndrome #eds #fibromyalgia #fibro #fms #shakyshaky #shakinghands #osteoarthritis #thoracicoutletsyndrome #posturalorthostatictachycardiasyndrome #Spoonie #spoonielife #amigonnadie #itsoksyimonlyrighthanded #mybodyisfallingapart #sickbutinvisible #butyoudontlooksick #sicknotlazy #sicknotweak #imafighter #nevertellmetheodds #ieatstackedoddsforbreakfast https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwk_gcFgh9V/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=aybmjkqpt7xy

I have been sleeping on this pillow since June now and I just love it. I’m not sure I would buy this brand again because I don’t like the stuffing on one side, I actually sleep on the water bladder side, not the stuffing side. I might see if I can find something to replace the fiberfill with, like those squishy beads they use to make toys out of? I won’t say it’s helped my TOS but it has certainly helped my sleep with TOS. I have not woken up with a numb arm since I got it and my morning headache/neck/jaw pain is at least 75% less. The only negative I have is also a positive. It’s HEAVY. Like 23lbs worth of heavy now. This is a pain in the ass when you’re making the bed (solved that, stopped making the bed) but it keeps me from bunching it up, or flipping it around when I sleep which is much better. #TOS #thoracicoutletsyndrome #pain #neck (at Toledo, Ohio) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChfEuKGOpyv/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

All licensed massage therapists, and masters of acupuncture and Chinese medicine practitioners will want to steal this one from Shaunne McNamee (@irisexplosion) and me. It’s a cute way to describe acupuncture and massage treatment when you rehabilitate an injured shoulder. “Twingling”: adv twitch combined with tingling Example: “Wow! My point finger is twingling when you put pressure on that scapula.” I don’t care what anyone else says, massage and acupuncture will ALWAYS be a part of my holistic approach to wellbeing and improved athletic performance. There have been some naysayers that like to promote their practice buy down-playing other modalities. It pains me to hear their sales pitch discrediting Chiropractors, LMP’s and acupuncturist. There...I said it out loud. If you live in West Seattle, Shaunne is accepting new patients. Mitch and I are so blessed by her care. #massagetherapy #acupuncture #healing #recovery #tos #thoracicoutletsyndrome #twingling (at Seattle Wellness Programs) https://www.instagram.com/p/CN1VK3aDYBi/?igshid=1vnuyt0azgyri

THORACIC OUTLET SYNDROME (TOS) [REHAB EXERCISES - SELF TREATMENT] On the picture you can see several rehab exercises which should be done as a daily training routine if you suffer from TOS. The videos show myofascial self treatment exercises you should perform as well. Video 1: Scalene Self-Treatment Relieving tension in the scalene muscles can be done using a @BLACKROLL® TWISTER. The @BLACKROLL® TWISTER is very useful as it does not only work with applying body weight to it but also allows the combination of pressure and twisting. The result: circulation rises, trigger bands and -points are stimulated and the fascial tissue becomes well hydrated. Make sure to find the right tension areas of the scalene muscles and apply good pressure into it. Then you can twist it and move your head while the TWISTER is pressed in. For the right scalene muscles you side band your cervical spine to the left side. 1-2 minutes per side is good for the beginning. For the muscles on the left you just perform it to the opposite. How to find the scalene muscles? Find the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM) first, it attaches to the sternum + clavicle and travels up to your mastoid process (right behind the ear). To localize the right SCM you turn your head to the left, look down and you can palpate the prominent muscle stomach of the SCM perfectly. The scalene muscles are located right behind the SCM, they originate from the transverse processes from the cervical vertebrae of C2 to C7 and insert onto the first and second ribs. Video 2/3: Pectoralis Minor Self-Treatment 1️⃣ Grab a @BLACKROLL® BALL 08 2️⃣ Find a wall you can lean on and be able to reach one arm in front of you. 3️⃣ Place the ball on the pec minor and lean into the ball on the wall. 4️⃣ In video 2 you reach your arm down at about a 45° angle and feel like you pick something off the ground, then drive your elbow up and back. 5️⃣ In video 3 you perform an internal and external rotation in the shoulder joint. #Physiotherapy #Osteopathy #Fisioterapia #Pilates #Osteopatia #Acupuncture #Therapy #Chiropractic #ThoracicOutletSyndrome #ArmPain #Numbness #Yoga #TOS #Rehab #Fascia #Backpain #NeckPain #HandPain #ShoulderPain https://www.instagram.com/p/CcXkPSHg86z/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

If you are experiencing pain, tingling, or weakness in the shoulder, neck, and arm when raising your hand, it could be the result of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. 

This condition occurs when blood vessels or nerves between your collarbone and your first rib, neck and chest muscles are compressed due to poor posture, injury, or trauma.

In severe cases, doctors suggest surgery. However, mild cases can be cured by muscle and nerve stimulating exercises and physical therapy.

At Advanced Spine Centre, our professionals can help you reduce the entrapped nerve, decrease pain, and improve mobility. Physiotherapy and Chiropractic Treatment together can help you get the best results!

This doesn't even begin to cover the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, or mental side of my struggles. This is merely what's happening with my skeleton. I am a warrior. Every day I wake up in pain, I live in pain, and I go to sleep in pain. Yes, it slows me down, but I don't let it stop me. I know sometimes it seems like everything is fine in my world, but it never is. I'm always hiding it, always stuffing the pain down, always working to rise above my circumstances and make the best out of the hand I've been dealt. It's never easy, but I do my best to make it seem like it is. "Fake it til you make it", right? We all have our struggles in life. Just because you can't see it from the outside, doesn't mean someone's not going through a lot. Not all disabilities are visible. 📷: @mvphotography11 Caption: @sallyrouge . . #ehlersdanlossyndrome #eds #fibromyalgia #fms #degenerativediscdisease #thoracicoutletsyndrome #posturalorthostatictachycardiasyndrome #POTS #dysautonomia #chronicillness #chronicpain #spoonielife #Spoonie #model #modeling #sallyrouge #sickbutinvisible #butyoudontlooksick #sicknotweak #sicknotlazy #zebra #zebrastrong #imafighter #Disability #disabilityawareness #invisibleillness https://www.instagram.com/p/BuJiYb9H-3A/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ut4onp96py58
