I’m a therapist with 12 yrs exp everything he is saying is accurate. One thing I like to do that the patient hates is isolating the muscle with my fingers and gliding them down the muscles as the patient stretches in the opposite direction. It’s called active release technique and it works every time. Patient hates you for a few minutes but then loves you forever 24 hrs later. I always make them ice afterwards. They always request it if it flares up again.

How come people feel called to tell others their job and confirm what is accurate or not? Getting to know and knowing your body is a matter of living as/with/in it. People are able to figure out themselves what feels good. You do not need any diploma nor school to know all that.

[@SirT80]

First, holy sh#t! When I tell you I feel 100% better after the massages, I am speaking nothing but the truth! After months of watching KZbin vids, going to a chiropractor and having acupuncture, this video alone has created such a sense of relief, instantly! This is the first video that popped up in my recommendations that specifically mentioned Thoratic Outlet Syndrome. I wasn’t sure if I should watch but I am glad I did! I work from home on a computer everyday and my neck issue has been giving me the blues since last year. Neither of my chiropractors have mentioned these massages first before stretching. I kinda feel that’s a no-brainer and probably my bad for not asking, but I just can’t get over the relief I’m feeling! Like someone else mentioned in the comments, I was beginning to get very depressed. I was experiencing brain fog, occasional double vision, tingling in my fingers and arms, and almost questioning if I was able to adequately take on my workload to any degree of success. I can go on but wow! This is such a relief! My only question is how often should the massages and stretched be done a day? It felt so good I wouldn’t mind doing it multiple times a day! Thank you again!

[@TrainandMassage]

I’m soo happy to hear you’re finally getting relief! You can do the massages daily if you’re taking it easy. Be warned it might feel sore after, the same kind of feeling as working out hard. Keep it up! You’re in control of your health🦾

I'm a member of a TMJD Facebook group that emphasizes the importance of addressing trigger points. The group's guide suggests using our hands to massage these muscles initially. As the trigger points become less intense, one can gradually use a back knob tool to work on the upper back. This approach has been instrumental in alleviating my jaw problems.

My man! Thank you... I've been to the VA and I've expressed that my neck has been clicking, popping, and getting stuck around my throat for over a year now. I had an HNT exam with a scope down my throat just to make sure it wasn't cancer. I never even heard of this (TOS) and I've been researching Hodgkins Lymphoma syndromes due to my lack of confidence in my PC. I did this while watching and I felt instant relief and all the misalignment I've been feeling disappeared almost instantly. I will still keep with my due diligence and request my PC to send me to PT for this. Thank you!

My physio therapist and my massage therapist both discouraged me from doing these kind of massages on the neck because they were afraid that I‘ts gonna damage the nerves. I think they were just cautious but it does not help me. Thanks for confirming that what I‘m intuitively doing is actually good for me!!! Love this❤

[@TrainandMassage]

I’m sorry your massage therapist or pt isn’t confident enough to work your neck. Just start slow and work your way up to a little more pressure. And if you hit a nerve, then simply move over and try again. It’s not a big deal. You got this.🦾🫡

I have been suffering with TOS for almost 3 years now I had no idea I even had it until I went in for wrist pain. I have gone through occupational therapy which helps but doesn’t last. I’m desperate and tired of being in so much pain. I was told my pregnancy most likely caused it. I feel like my ribs are being stabbed constantly. Hurts to sleep on my back and sides it’s miserable. Hopefully these exercises will help because doctors don’t want to spend the time to actually treat me. Instead I get told “ there’s nothing clinically wrong”.

Gold. I have been in more or less constant discomfort with neck and shoulders for 20 years. Have watched 100's of physical therapy videos and videos about other forms of treatment, had tried massage, and osteopathy on many occasions, and nothing I tried really worked. After 10 minutes I have a new sensation in my neck and shoulders and as a consequence, hope for the future. Can't thank you enough. By the way had never heard of TOS, but had come across trigger points and myofacial adhesions, but never had anyone explained the points about manipulating the facia, followed by the correct approach to stretching, then strengthening the balancing muscles, which I must say brings together these 3 approaches into a logical sequence. I've seen proof of the first two within minutes. I've wasted so much time fighting this pain by pulling at it and getting nowhere, but at least I know the way forward

I have chronic Lyme, Fibromyalgia, Hashimotos and a host of other autoimmune diseases. There were several knots I found in the muscles going up the side of my neck and working that area was difficult because it's like stone. Under the clavicle there was a clicking with every movement. Personally the diseases are one thing, but I believe trauma was a bigger evil for me. When I was 18 I had a chiropractor tell me I carried all my stress in my muscles. I am now 48. Thank you so much.

I stay on top of it now with self myofascial release and do my own cupping.

The way you show the muscle diagrams over the part of the body is really helpful in visualising how to pinpoint it. You are helping so many people with a lot of pain and restriction in their daily lives. Would using vibrating equipment e.g. gardening power tools daily have any correlation with TOS?

[@TrainandMassage]

Thank you for the comment, I truly appreciate it! I believe it would be more your body and arm position during work that contributes to it rather than the specific work itself. Sadly its not avoidable unless you learn how to garden behind you back haha.

How common is this? Why has none of the physiotherapists and doctors I have been to never ever said anything about it to me? This is the pain I have been living with for at least 10 years and without realising it, I had been doing some of the massaging techniques you describes myself. It was the only stuff that helped relieve some of the discomfort and pain. I have ever had a full body scan done, including bone scan, because the doctors could not figure out what was causing my pain. So upset now about the lost time and resources :/

[@TrainandMassage]

I feel you on that. I had similar issues with hip and back pain and just bounced around from Dr to Dr. My theory is that massage isn't looked at (yet) as an alternative to PT. Until that happens, I hope these videos are able to help you out in the meantime.

[@emilyk0209]

Best video addressing TOS that I have found out there. I have been dealing with TOS pain for 17 months, but only discovered it's TOS a month ago after a consult with my surgeon for an ulnar nerve decompression. I've had a swollen lump at my collarbone this entire time. Reading more, I discovered a correlation between TOS and median/ulnar nerve compression (they call it a double crush syndrome). My EMG showed a severe lesion at my elbow, motor loss, sensory loss, muscle wasting, and mild carpal tunnel. I truly believe it all stems from the TOS compression. Vascular TOS was negative thank goodness. These self-massaging exercises are spot on. The stretches just hurt right now. I'll be trying these for sure!!! Thank you for creating this video.

[@TrainandMassage]

I do hope this video helps. Double crush syndrome might also be tightness in the pecs, subclavius, and scalenes. Make sure to work those!

Just another grateful commenter here. After just two days of adding in these self-massage techniques, I was able to sleep through the night without the painful burning in my hand and fingers wake me in the wee hours. I almost couldn’t decide whether the pain or the sleep deprivation that accompanied it was worse. Truly, thank you.

[@alanawolf1556]

P.S. I watched your posture video, paying special attention to the sleep position section. I’m wondering if you might address optimizing sleep positions for those dealing with TOS. Pre-TOS, I personally preferred back sleeping with a minimal pillow (cushioning concentrated at the neck, very little head & zero shoulder support). Since TOS, I’ve been experimenting, as the supine position seems to trigger pain radiating across my scapulae & into my shoulders (side sleeping amplifies this). Currently, my supine, flat position from toes to pelvis remains, but from there I’m now bolstered upwards at 45 degrees through the head. I’m basically sleeping on a triangle base, with a firm half-barrel pillow running vertically along my spine up to my neck, crowned with a softer pillow for head support, and two additional pillows under each arm. My shoulder blades avoid surface contact (& therefore don’t feel “pinched”) while everything around them is supported. I can’t help but think there’s an easier way. Would love to hear any thoughts you (or other viewers) might have on the matter!

[@TrainandMassage]

Thank you so much for your comments, Im glad youre able to get some sleep. As for your question about sleeping. if the main problem is the scapulae then maybe try focusing more on the pec minor. The pec minor helps control the scapulae so maybe its the natural stretch in this muscle that triggers the pinch in the nerves which gives you pain in the back. make sure to test before trying this video and then test it after to see if theres a difference. You can test it by laying flat as if youre trying to sleep. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3qXZqB3eMaep9E

[@TrainandMassage]

tight muscles creating pain isnt normal. Try holding that tension and paying attention the pain. See if it gets worse or better. It is very possible to get worse before it gets better. it could take 30s up to 2 minutes. and It might take multiple attempts to get it to release. A tight chest can pull the clavicle down, which in turn pulls the neck forward. So it might be a reason for it. It might also be the subclavius or the suboccipital creating more tension. My TOS Challenge addresses a lot of these issues and teach you how to properly release them.

[@walterdubois3450]

@@TrainandMassage looking forward to the headache video!

[@TOSUnbound]

The scalenes are not overactive in Thoracic Outlet Syndrome they are UNDER worked and weak. What is overactive are the upper traps, and the pec minor which doesn't allow the scapula to sit correctly. This results in the pinching of the thoracic outlet between the first rib. The other muscles that need strengthened are the lower traps and the serratus anterior. You can do your own research on this as their are multiple scientific papers published using EMGs. Edit: I’ve done further research and found that the scalenes are possibly indeed overactive.

[@TrainandMassage]

As a massage therapist, I have helped many people who had tos by only releasing the scalenes. That same nerve that gets pinched in tos can also get pinched there.

[@lvanpelt1685]

You are partially correct..Overactive scalenes are a real thing. Mine are enlarged, verified by ultrasound and pressing on my brachial plexus on both sides of my neck. Coughing, sneezing, having to speak loudly only exacerbates them. Using these muscles to breathe as opposed to the diaphragm can result in this, as it did for me (anxiety & stress also cause us to breathe shallow using these muscles ). With this, the scalenes do tighten and the anterior and middle scalenes pull the first rib up toward the clavicle while the poor posture causes the clavicle to drop sandwiching the nerves, vessels & arteries from the brachial bundle that run between them. But, yes, strengthening rhomboids, lower traps and serratus anterior definitely needed for me as well as keeping the rib cage and scapula mobile and gliding. My 2 EMGs showed nothing, but trapped ulnar nerve at the elbows. TOS does not have a one size fits all treatment approach, but I am definitely using the massage techniques shown here before stretching now. Appreciate this video!

[@TOSUnbound]

@@lvanpelt1685 This is strange as a lot of my research has contradicted this. However, the enlargement of a muscle could surely cause the same issues a tight weakened muscle so it makes sense logically. Glad to hear about other causes of TOS to open my mind a bit.

[@lvanpelt1685]

@@TOSUnbound I’ve learned TOS is not all that cut & dry. It’s nice to be able to help each other. I was also checked to see if I had an extra rib. Not the case.. My physical therapist does manual therapy and when she gets my hips and pelvis straight & loosened up, it helps relieve tension in my rib cage, which in turn helps my upper back and neck relax. If one area is missed I don’t get the same benefits. It can be pretty individualized as far as treatments go. Just have to try different things and see what sticks.

I was getting worried as the pain was bad. I didn’t want to go to a doctor, etc., as I was pretty sure I knew it was tos. Diagnosed 40 years ago after a roll over car accident where I found a chiropractor who did pressure point massage and heat which allowed me to return to my life. After rotator cuff surgery 20 years ago and a dislocation after slipping on ice four years ago (all happened to the right shoulder), I thought perhaps they were both coming back to haunt me at 68 years old. I then started to have the old tos pain that happened off and on through the years but not like lately, but I did yoga daily for over 30 years which probably kept tos at bay. Thank so much for this video. I started yesterday, and I cannot believe how the pain that was all over the shoulder and arm is almost nonexistent.
