Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) Treatment

Relieve Pain, Restore Function, and Reclaim Your Life

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) can be a debilitating condition, causing pain, numbness, and weakness in the neck, shoulders, and arms. At [Your Clinic Name], we specialize in providing targeted, effective physiotherapy treatments to help you overcome TOS and get back to the activities you love.

What is Thoracic Outlet Syndrome?

TOS occurs when the nerves or blood vessels between your collarbone and first rib are compressed, leading to a variety of uncomfortable symptoms. These can include:

Neck, shoulder, and arm pain
Tingling or numbness in the fingers
Weakness in the hand or arm
Swelling or discoloration in the arm

If left untreated, TOS can severely impact your quality of life. However, with the right care, most people can manage or even eliminate their symptoms.

Our Approach to Treating Thoracic Outlet Syndrome

At MTP, we take a comprehensive, personalized approach to treating TOS. Our goal is to address the root cause of your symptoms and provide lasting relief through a combination of advanced techniques and tailored care.

Comprehensive Assessment: We begin with a thorough assessment to accurately diagnose TOS and identify the specific structures involved. This allows us to create a treatment plan that is customized to your unique needs.
Manual Therapy: Skilled in treating TOS I use hands-on techniques to reduce muscle tension, improve joint mobility, and alleviate nerve compression. This may include soft tissue massage, joint mobilization, and other targeted therapies.
Targeted Exercises: I will design a personalised exercise program to strengthen the muscles around the thoracic outlet, improve posture, and enhance neural mobility. These exercises are crucial for preventing future flare-ups and maintaining long-term health.
Education and Prevention: Lifestyle changes are an important aspect of managing TOS. I will arm you with the knowledge that you need to manage your symptoms on your own, including posture correction, ergonomic advice, and lifestyle modifications.
