Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome patients look no further!
Myotherapists are commonly seen for neck related pain such as headaches, migraines and muscular pain in general.
When muscles become tight sometimes they can pinch the nerve which can lead to referred pain.
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome is a condition in which the nerves are getting compressed due to postural issues, tight muscles and weak posterior chain muscles.
