I've said it before but I'll say it again: I LOVE that he doesn't constantly LOOK at what he's doing. He FEELS what he's doing. When I went through massage school, they frequently made us massage with lights off or blind folded. Look when assessing, feel when addressing.
I know, I still feel my whiplashe from my car accident from time to time, and it was well over ten years ago. I do stretches, I've gone to a chiropractor before, but I feel like this guy would bring me back to a full 100
He is probably "constantly in pain" and this is nothing special ... since he has been dealing with it for years. Oh and ... HOW do YOU "know" that this is painful? Just because it turns red? STOP JUDGING BY LOOKS!
If I could tell my younger self...don't lift weights to see how much you can lift, lift weights to keep your muscles in good balance with an eye on having a body and spine that will last you for the long haul. Stretching and movement are also important. So glad this young man got in to see Ed at age 20 instead of age 40. There is hope for improved and sustained health at that age.
Exactly..one mustn't lifts weights that is too much for him to handle..and stretching and warming up is really important b4 weight lifting..well for me thou..
I want to go to a chiropractor while I’m still young so bad /: people don’t seem to take you seriously when you complain of back pain as a younger person bc it’s seen as something only older adults deal with, but what they don’t realize is if you don’t take care of the back early in life, it will only get worse as you age! I don’t even understand why my back hurts but hopefully I can save up to see an amazing chiropractor like you doc! Thanks for all the work you do healing people :)
As someone young and working standing up the entire time i can recommend it, i go twice a year sometimes more and I also train my lower back more, it makes standing the entire day easy and painless.
Have you heard of The Joint? It’s a chain of chiropractic studios I’ve been going for 3 years now and it’s the best decision I ever made no insurance needed and it’s only $70 a month for 4 sessions
The professional giving the massage must be very strong to do this day in day out. I am so impressed with the level of strength. So interesting how he explains, it makes complete sense. Telling the story of this young man’s muscles, bones, ligaments, joints.
This chiropractor is amazing. He seems to take the time to understand the cause of the problem and then makes effort to resolve it. I’d pay to have a consult with him any day.
Hearing his voice quiver at the begining trying to describe his pain really touched home for me. You never know if the physician is going to take what you're saying seriously or try to doiwnplay it like you're exaggerating.
I love watching people with clear and visible discomfort getting the proper care, thats more satisfying than just ASMR adjustments. Badass video and well done everyone in the video, taking that type of pain isnt easy
As much painful it may be for the patient, it must be super exhausting for the doctor as well. At times he’s understandably out of breathe so I appreciate that he’s explaining while treating the patient as well. Kudos
Went to the chiro today because I’ve had headeaches for about a week and I couldn’t turn my head to the left. I was in and out in 20 minutes and the chiro actually tried to sell the speed to me as a selling point. I’ll take what Dr. Ed is giving any day of the week over what I experienced today.
Yeah... I swear. I'm looking for a Chiro youtuber based in Colorado that I can try. All the ones I have been to are basically in and out and I don't really feel like anything was done.
I’ve been to a couple chiropractors and they all seemed to try and run through as many patients as possible. It’s more of a routine thing than getting to the route of the issue and teaching people how to properly take care of themselves. Seeing videos like this makes me wish all chiropractors were this knowledgeable and informative with their patients
I would really love to see the progression of this young man's therapy. I'm having a very similar issue with my left shoulder. I learned a lot with this video.
I just wish I could see this doctor. I am in pain since 2014 after a car accident. I lost everything because of it my house, my job, my self esteem i ended up in salvation army with my wife and 4 children. I was standing still in front of a traffic light when someone got a black out and drove ther car in mine. Insurance company did not wanted to pay for the medical threathment. And I can not afford it myself so I am basicly stuck with a messed up neck, shoulder and arm. But I am happy for this guy that he gets the help he needed
I love the calm approach the doctor has with all his patients. Instead of just treating and moving to the next patient, great care is given to attempt to explain what is going on, why he is treating the patient in the manner he is, and the detailed explanation of what is going on and what he is doing to fix the problem. Gold standard delivery of care right here.
It’s really refreshing to see someone else with the same stretch marks going across their lower back as I have. I’ve been embarrassed about them my whole life.
I only have whatched less than a minute from this guy channel, and I feel he is very passionate about his job, he loves it, the way he explains stuff to the patient, the way he concentrates, his facial expressions makes me think he is very fond of what he is doing.
I have super similar issues to this man and the way that he was treated with such care and precision literally made me tear up. I understand too well what it's like to be in pain and be blown off by the medical team that is supposed to help you. His previous experiences clearly did not take his pain seriously!!!!
From experience I know how much this SUCKS. I spent over a decade pushing through injuries and making things worse, and have spent the last 5 and a half years working to fix everything. Keep with the process, brother. It will get better. God speed.
Strengthening the muscles which stabilise the shoulder and help retract the shoulders will help this young man with his poor control over his scapula. Further lengthening of the tissues is not a long-term fix. Building the mind-to-muscle connection using neuromuscular rep range exercises is what he needs.
He’s actually using a technique called guasha . He’s using a common guasha stone. It helps to get into hard to reach areas. A lot of Asian, and now American, women use it all over, but on the face to smooth lines of tension. Great Doctor.
i've suffered from upper back and shoulder blade pain (right side) for almost 20yrs. chiro, trigger points, acupuncture, massages, etc didn't help, not even nerve ablation. fire cupping and scraping (gua sah) helped a little. stretching the arms/shoulders back during PT really helped me a lot. and also doing the chin tuck exercises really helped. also, massaging the Scalene muscles in the neck helps to relax the upper back and shoulder.
I think I am more impressed with how much the patient knows about his own body. Obvioiusly experience from multiple visits to a doctor or chiropractor but still, impressive.
It's nice to see patients doing their research and trying to get to the bottom of it and discussing it with the doc. I'm sure it helps the doc get a better understanding of the situation and also makes for very educational videos.
What do they say about it? I have it and my arms are crooked. I was thinking about getting surgery to fix my arm and idk what exercise to do for my winged scapula
I EMPATHIZED with everything the kid was dealing with, labrum tear, disc injury except mine was in my Lower Back, scapula knots 100% and I didnt believe I would treat all the instability on the right side of my back but watching this chiropractor is really reassuring. I wish I could find the right person in NY.
I hope this gentleman continues to visit you to get the treatment he needs, been neglected by himself and too many professionals before he found you! Wish I had someone like you in my area!
It would be better if he didn't go to a chiropractic. Instead train the correct muscles and in a year he doesn't have this problem anymore. Chiropractics are no doctors
I've had a winged scapula since 2019 after falling on my back while skating. Conked my head stupid too. Definitely got some nerve damage. I really need to find me a chiro that can do this. I've been coping so fockin hard for years, self-medicating in *too many* ways in order to deal with the pain my messed up bacc causes me. I can't stand still comfortably. The winged scapula feels like my right shoulder blade just died and never came back but the muscle is still crying for help. Someday 💯🙅
OK...first, The way you explain this is perfect! I understood about 85% of what you were saying. You took time and cared for his issues. I'd like to see a part 2!
Everything that the kid mentioned happened to me. I can see he has been doing his research almost like an obsession to figure out what he is feeling. C4, T4, L5 are what I had inflamed. It messed me up doing my overhead movement with too much weight. I was fine in the beginning but over time it got worse. I went to seek help and currently working in overcoming it.
Gees as if I was recommended this video. I legit feel like I have the same issues as this guy. Sprained my back twice, sprained neck, broke my collar bone, and got hit by a car (all separate instances, got hit by the car about 2 years ago and I'm still numb around tail bone, assuming it will stay like that at this point). My lower neck is always sore, shoulder blades to (they stick out weirdly like this guys). Sometimes lower back is really sore. Often when neck sore i get a headache in back of head near neck. I'm not sure how much chiropractors are in Canada but your professionalism is making me think it might be worth going to a chiropractor. Thank you for this video.
Same problem, ive had it as long as i can remember. I jumped off a house onto my neck somewhat twisted and scorpioned my head with my heals. I can fly with my wings but pain comes with it.
Ive just randomly had this channel in the recommended list alongside, and I just want to highlight what an amazingly soothing, angel of a man you are. Hopefully you read this, I wish you eternal happiness and wish there were more people like you in this world.❤
I have this exact issue and have since 2013 after a motorcycle accident. The winging scapula has happened to me multiple times since the late 80's but each time it's gone back to normal on it's own. I've had it tested by a neurologist and found it to be what's called a Long Thoracic Nerve Pulsey and there isn't much that can be done for it other than surgery. I'm wondering if this is something that can be corrected via Chiropractic? I have tones of crunching in my right shoulder very similar to this guy, it can be very pain full.
There's nothing more frustrating than not being able to work out while trying to maintain the gains already made and missing that great feeling of a productive workout. He's in good hands with Dr. McLaughlin
One of my sisters has severe winged scapulas on both sides (although we didn't know that's what it was called, we just always called her a freak of nature, in a loving way, lol)...but she never had an injury. She was just always like that. No pain, it just look freaky!
Wow how interesting to watch. What a professional! So thorough and knowledgeable and respectful. If I were the patient I would feel so safe and well taken care of.
This is awesome! I wanna give it a go. I have the same scapular winging too, but not as severe. Are these standard chiropractic treatments or a specialized one? The patient mentioned he’s been to a chiro before but only spent 5 mins with just spine adjustment. I was hoping for something like this treatment.
You’ve gotta look for Chiros that do osteopathy or from Palmer university because that’s where doctor Ed and his sister studied. Just make sure there is osteopathic or myofascial release in there credentials:)
I had a shoulder inpignement several years ago. it was absolutely incapacitating. I tried chiros but it Didn’t work. My fascias were stick together and my muscles absolutely rigid. No subacromial space. 20 minutes of streching Everyday saved my shoulder. I just reset all my muscle shoulders , but it was progressive. I needed one full month to do it. I’m sure u can reset and became your muscles flexible again just stretching.
@@strikelee3369 yep, her channel is mondragon chiropractic and to be honest she got him into the TH-cam scene , her channel is just a bit more popular than his, oh and they have crossover videos as well
Winging of the scapula ..if it is due to dysfunction of serratus anterior muscles related to the injury of long thoracic nerve, will not likely be resolved by any kind of chiropractic adjustment.
I have never tapped out during a session of massage therapy, but I have never had some of the muscles he’s having rubbed, ever even touched! This was so amazing to watch I almost felt it 💪🏼
I have never found a chiropractor in alaska that is even close to this Doc and it's so sad bc I am in so much pain daily that I can't hardly get thru a day without being missrable. I have gone to the doc and will be starting physical therapy for a injury in my neck praying for even a small amount of relief.
1. have some kids 2. send them to become chiropractors and tell them to learn what he knows Sure, that is a long-term plan ... but consider the good you are doing humanity with it!
I have chronic pain and something that really helped me is buying a massager. I have one that you can put on your neck. It's fantastic. It's called Beurer delux 3D shiatsu neck and back massager. I've gifted it to a few friends over the years for Christmas and it has changed their life. Pain management like that is good because you can control the pressure. Good luck
@@gdaymates431 I wrote down the name and will go look it up. Thanks for for advice I really appreciate it. Sending hellos from Wasilla Alaska, Tschandra
Looks like the chiropractor is working on most of his knots. Are they suppose to do that or do you have to see a massage therapist for that? Great video Mr Mclaughlin. Please keep us updated on this young man progress.
I had one side (right) that was almost this bad years ago. I used to do a lot of push-ups, but not many pull-related exercises to counter it. I stopped doing pushups and instead use a cable machine to do chest presses and such. Now I have virtually no winging scapula. I never had treatment for it. I guess it was just poor technique and posture to begin with and it somehow fixed itself. When I look in the mirror now, even the side that was horrible to me looks just like the other side now.
Best explanations of what is actually going on with people so they can geal themselves AFTER the session. Thus guy knows what he is doing and genuinely cares. Very thorough and will tell his patient the origin of the problem. Far more than just shocking cracks. A gem of a chiropractor!! Should be at a million followers. Dude is the real deal!!
If your looking for patients who need back adjustments and has winged scapula I definitely would like to apply, my wing scapulas are actually bigger than the person in the video, my mom had spina bifida so I have scoliosis pretty bad with extreme muscle spasms/pain in my back @Mclaughlin Chiropractic
I haven’t seen a more in-depth video Thankyou. What would be more beneficial for relaxing the nerve? Like stretching and mobility work, ice bath sauna or massage tools
I've always been able to move my shoulder blades, and protrude them out MUCH further than we saw here. But it has never hurt, I've always been flexible in my arms, and there's no clicking or crunching involved. Should I care about that?
This is so comprehensive thank you. I need an appointment when my investments come in I wonder how backed up you are. I had prayed for these answers and was starting to piece the puzzle together this really brought it together
I've said it before but I'll say it again: I LOVE that he doesn't constantly LOOK at what he's doing. He FEELS what he's doing. When I went through massage school, they frequently made us massage with lights off or blind folded. Look when assessing, feel when addressing.

Ive just randomly had this channel in the recommended list alongside, and I just want to highlight what an amazingly soothing, angel of a man you are. Hopefully you read this, I wish you eternal happiness and wish there were more people like you in this world.❤
I have this exact issue and have since 2013 after a motorcycle accident. The winging scapula has happened to me multiple times since the late 80's but each time it's gone back to normal on it's own. I've had it tested by a neurologist and found it to be what's called a Long Thoracic Nerve Pulsey and there isn't much that can be done for it other than surgery. I'm wondering if this is something that can be corrected via Chiropractic? I have tones of crunching in my right shoulder very similar to this guy, it can be very pain full.
I think it's Palsey not Pulsey. Which I think means paralysis.
You just have to give it time it takes 2 years for the nerves to regenerate and the time keep moving
@@Elizabethtuna394 you are correct, I apologize for the spelling error.
Love how he starts with a hug to make him feel more comfortable
There's nothing more frustrating than not being able to work out while trying to maintain the gains already made and missing that great feeling of a productive workout. He's in good hands with Dr. McLaughlin
His patient is a trooper. The pain from this adjustment would be excruciating. What a tough dude haha.
One of my sisters has severe winged scapulas on both sides (although we didn't know that's what it was called, we just always called her a freak of nature, in a loving way, lol)...but she never had an injury. She was just always like that. No pain, it just look freaky!
Wow how interesting to watch. What a professional! So thorough and knowledgeable and respectful. If I were the patient I would feel so safe and well taken care of.
You are a great chiropractor. Actually explaining the science behind his problem, even if he didn't care or understand. Keep it up!
Winged scapula is the result of nerve damage in most cases, not sure how a chiropractor is going to offer "treatment".
He just wanted an excuse to get a nice massage
He doesn't
Netflix: "are you still watching?"
Me and someones daughter: 34:07
When you feel pain constantly, i can see why this guy is able to not cry during the process 😅
This is awesome! I wanna give it a go. I have the same scapular winging too, but not as severe. Are these standard chiropractic treatments or a specialized one? The patient mentioned he’s been to a chiro before but only spent 5 mins with just spine adjustment. I was hoping for something like this treatment.
You’ve gotta look for Chiros that do osteopathy or from Palmer university because that’s where doctor Ed and his sister studied. Just make sure there is osteopathic or myofascial release in there credentials:)
I had a shoulder inpignement several years ago. it was absolutely incapacitating. I tried chiros but it Didn’t work.
My fascias were stick together and my muscles absolutely rigid. No subacromial space.
20 minutes of streching Everyday saved my shoulder. I just reset all my muscle shoulders , but it was progressive. I needed one full month to do it. I’m sure u can reset and became your muscles flexible again just stretching.
@@matthewhoward7384 who is his sister and is she on TH-cam too? This is my first time seeing this doctor and I'm a fan now.
@@strikelee3369 yep, her channel is mondragon chiropractic and to be honest she got him into the TH-cam scene , her channel is just a bit more popular than his, oh and they have crossover videos as well
@@matthewhoward7384 oh very cool.
He must be very strong and tired at the end of the day. So informative he tells you everything. I'd go to him
You work so hard to heal your patients! And I really appreciate how much you educate them, too.
Winging of the scapula ..if it is due to dysfunction of serratus anterior muscles related to the injury of long thoracic nerve, will not likely be resolved by any kind of chiropractic adjustment.
If I work out the Serratia anterior the winging of the scapula Will be fixed?
I need an update. I hope ol boy is doing okay and getting regular help. Would hate for anything like this to affect him so early in life.
I have never tapped out during a session of massage therapy, but I have never had some of the muscles he’s having rubbed, ever even touched! This was so amazing to watch I almost felt it 💪🏼
Would be cool to see some re-testing to see the treatment results
Thanks!
I have knots under my right scapula too, I use a towel hook and a board and lay on my pressure points and move side to side...I need this session too!
A foam roller is good, too
This is really relaxing to watch ? Anyone else ?
I have never found a chiropractor in alaska that is even close to this Doc and it's so sad bc I am in so much pain daily that I can't hardly get thru a day without being missrable. I have gone to the doc and will be starting physical therapy for a injury in my neck praying for even a small amount of relief.
1. have some kids
2. send them to become chiropractors and tell them to learn what he knows
Sure, that is a long-term plan ... but consider the good you are doing humanity with it!
I have chronic pain and something that really helped me is buying a massager. I have one that you can put on your neck. It's fantastic. It's called Beurer delux 3D shiatsu neck and back massager. I've gifted it to a few friends over the years for Christmas and it has changed their life. Pain management like that is good because you can control the pressure. Good luck
@@gdaymates431 I wrote down the name and will go look it up. Thanks for for advice I really appreciate it. Sending hellos from Wasilla Alaska,
Tschandra
Looks like the chiropractor is working on most of his knots. Are they suppose to do that or do you have to see a massage therapist for that? Great video Mr Mclaughlin. Please keep us updated on this young man progress.
I had one side (right) that was almost this bad years ago. I used to do a lot of push-ups, but not many pull-related exercises to counter it. I stopped doing pushups and instead use a cable machine to do chest presses and such. Now I have virtually no winging scapula. I never had treatment for it. I guess it was just poor technique and posture to begin with and it somehow fixed itself. When I look in the mirror now, even the side that was horrible to me looks just like the other side now.
Yeah I realized push-ups worsens it for me. Only on the left scapula though.
What exercise did you do that helped?
Best explanations of what is actually going on with people so they can geal themselves AFTER the session. Thus guy knows what he is doing and genuinely cares. Very thorough and will tell his patient the origin of the problem. Far more than just shocking cracks. A gem of a chiropractor!! Should be at a million followers. Dude is the real deal!!
Props for the close mic. I work by feel and a lot of sound when I do this.
I opt for super deep pressure on my shoulders and back and this looks like it feels amazing
I need one of these appointments… they look soooo soothing
If your looking for patients who need back adjustments and has winged scapula I definitely would like to apply, my wing scapulas are actually bigger than the person in the video, my mom had spina bifida so I have scoliosis pretty bad with extreme muscle spasms/pain in my back @Mclaughlin Chiropractic
Dr Mc’s passion is pretty intense in his practice. I love it
I'm not a huge fan of chiropractors but I would actually trust this guys, he seems like he realty cares. Keep helping people doc
I don’t even have shoulder problems and I found this video captivating
I haven’t seen a more in-depth video Thankyou.
What would be more beneficial for relaxing the nerve? Like stretching and mobility work, ice bath sauna or massage tools
Winged scapula is usually due to a long thoracic nerve lesion. How is the underlying issue resolved with this?
he was explaining how throughout the video
@@taserface5519 massaging and adjusting him is not changing the fact that he has a motor deficit/neurologic problem
@@tyaoliver767that’s not what he’s doing tho. watch the video again and pay attention if you’re actually interested in learning.
@@taserface5519 its like you don't understand what the word neurologic mean
@@taserface5519 u don't understand a thing about Ty'a Oliver said
When you are hurt nothing else matters blessing to these DR that have helped alot of feel bad for this young man may he recover fully one day.
Can you tell me if these massages and pressing on trigger points helpful with a Frozen shoulder?
This guys pain tolerance has to be insanely high.
Maybe i missed something, but what removing the outer layer of his skin has to do with anything?
yeah he lost me when he said those popped vessels is trapped inflamation xD
This is insane. I didn't know humans could have "mechanical" malfunctions like that. Wow I'm in awe.
Yea, and the got a good idea of why my back and neck hurts now. I've always suspected nerve damage as the root of the problem.
I've always been able to move my shoulder blades, and protrude them out MUCH further than we saw here. But it has never hurt, I've always been flexible in my arms, and there's no clicking or crunching involved. Should I care about that?
Me too, and I'm looking into Ehlers-danlos syndrome, and the hypermobile aspect of it
A gent who mixes Western chiropractic disciplines with Eastern (TCM) techniques such as ‘gua sha’, cupping, and bone-setting is absolute gold!
Wow...just wow. I’ve suffered from this for years and it all makes sense now..🙏🏽
This is so comprehensive thank you. I need an appointment when my investments come in I wonder how backed up you are. I had prayed for these answers and was starting to piece the puzzle together this really brought it together
