- If you know what this is because you have it or have had it, this video serves as a safe, effective self administered therapy. And if you are not familiar with Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, this practice serves as a great preventative and can also help to keep you from getting the "Old Age Posture" (aka kyphosis with head forward). If you are looking for more movement for the thoracic spine, try last week's video "Thoracic Spine Mobility".

This was brilliant! You are delightful, I found myself saying more than once, "Oh I just love her!" Thank you, my neck feels much more limber, and I will continue to practice this to soothe my tight shoulder area.
I love you too and appreciate your support. Thanks for taking care of yourself with me. PS I did this this morning as mine was being fussy again 😩
This therapeutic practice was wonderfully soothing and a revelation. I had no idea that the chronic discomfort I experience in my neck, shoulders and arms came from nerves impingement! Thank you Megan🙏
Yes, I was surprised as well to find out much of my hand pain was nerve related. Thanks for commenting!
I have this condition. Thank you these exercises are very helpful.
Thank you for letting me know. I have had it too and this helped me 🙏
Loved it! Thank you, Megan - just what I needed today 😊
Thanks Susanne, This one saved me at the time when. I was experiencing TOS. Sometimes my body is the best lab!
Thank you so much I have TOS and the last physical therapist I saw suggested I do PX90! 😂😂😭 I never went back, but the pain and numbness are always there or lurking near by. Your practices have helped me to heal so much and this video is amazing. I will be adding this to my weekly rotation 💜 much love, gratitude, and appreciation Megan❤️💕❤️
Lea, your comments and enthusiasm are appreciated. As I mentioned on Patreon, what I call our “Body Mystery Stories” have something to say. We don’t need to understand them, because they talk in the language of sensation. We only need to listen. Peace and Light, Megan
Beautiful background scenery and superb practice! The difference between left and right shoulder was immense for me and I went extra slow on the side that was extremly restricted. I will definetly do this practice again, thank you!
Thanks for the feedback Elli. I have had a number of problems with nerve impingement in my right arm and this really helps. 🙏🤗
THANK YOU! I have been suffering TOS for months, and finally found a provider who acknowledges it.. I am in postural restoration physical therapy and that helps some, but I am finding the nerve flossing helps more than any other treatment I've tried... so thank you for taking the time to acknowledge and make this video. In my experience it's been hard to find anyone who truly understands it! (outside of support groups and such ;) ) much love
Hi Sadie, I am happy to provide the video and to know it supports you healing from TOS. I struggle with it myself and it was never diagnosed correctly; thus the video. And I think nerve flossing is so cool 😎!!!
What an implosion of DivINe Gifts with your offering!!!!! I Love your guidance and reminders to relax other parts and... I Love how body receives this as highest form of Love & reconciliation with the ONENESS of ALL🙏🕊️💝
✨You are such a generous Spirit Megan, Highest BlessINgs to you & All Around💫
Graceful implosion😉
You kind beautiful expression is deeply appreciated Marie-Annick 🙏💜
@@MeganMacCarthy your DivINe Expression is an immeasurable Gift Angel💝Thank HUe🤗
@@UnicornKin20 🙏
Cried on the very first exercise
I hope it was tears of deep release and comfort 🤗
Thanks so much for this practice. It's helpful...especially combined with your grounded energy.
Thank you Marci 🙏 glad it helps and I like seeing the lake I lived on for 25 years 😌
Thank you so much. I have been in agony for months. Chiro wasn’t helping and I had just about given up. One session and I slept like a baby. I can breath again and my arm and hand are finally pain free. Just completed session 2 and will be including this is my daily routine. God Bless You
So happy Deb and thanks for your FB message as well. This one did the job for me about a month ago as well!
Awesome, thank you
I hope it was helpful ☮️
Thank you for this! I don't know if I have TOS specifically, but I have enough nerve impingement in my arms that I suspect so. It felt terrific! Definitely will be working this into my regular rotation!
Hi Cheryl, I consider diagnosis second to if it actually feels good. It sounds like you are on the right track. Enjoy and thanks for commenting. ☀️
Yes, helpful and enjoyable, felt good afterwards.........🙏
Thanks for the feed back and letting me know it was helpful 🙏🙏
So actually I just went to the ER for a blue vein that blew up not like exploded but came to the surface with pain. I drank water and then exercise it went away but then there was tingling in my arm and weaknesses:heaviness they didn’t find clots because they did a venous and arterial US but they diagnosed me with thoracic outlet syndrome and I’m on a baby aspirin. I do do weight lifting and exercising, also have two young children…. But I’ve notice lately pinched nerves in my brachial plexus when I do back exercises near my scapula and extreme tightness in one side of my neck. I have bad posture too… I think I have the nTOS because there’s no clots and I have pain in my nerves occasionally but I’m super tight
Hi Kayla, please be sure to get the medical attention you need. If you are diagnosed with TOS, this can help. Healing and hugs to you 🤗
Thanks!
Very welcome! I just had a return of mine recently and did my own video 🤣
In the seated position, do all 3 arm positions work with the median nerve or do the internal and external arm rotation positions target the radial and/or ulnar nerves?
Hi Karen, I would have to go back to notes but I know TOS can be an issue with any of the peripheral nerves including radial, medial and ulnar, as well as the phrenic nerve in the brachial plexus. This video is designed to work with the whole brachial plexus and all motor and sensory functions of the arm and hand related to it.
Thank you Megan, no need to go back. This answer suits me well! I appreciate you! 🙏🏻
Do you have any other videos for upper back pain? For like 1st rib scm scalenes traps and levator scapula tension?
Hi Gigi, I would try the one Telstar the week before this which is for thoracic spine: th-cam.com/video/qAvWLeEI3Gs/w-d-xo.html
Tree his would be a good one too: th-cam.com/video/IlqhSXXwWe4/w-d-xo.html
You might search “neck and shoulders” on my channel; there are lots more options. Happy healing ❤️🩹
This helped me so much the first time I followed your well-done video. I knew where my pain was and that my “jumpy” left shoulder was getting worse as was the tingling in my right arm. I am pretty hyper mobile and never really know what isn’t working properly/ I am 76 and my question is how often is too often to do this sequence? Thank you.
Hi Charlotte, thanks for the kind comment and question. I just had the same question on another video! How often to me is about making sure you are absorbing, benefiting from and most importantly, enjoying the practice. With being hyper mobile, give yourself permission to under-do the moments and focus more on small sensations. Peace, Megan
Could you make one for vTOS?
I am not as familiar with venous TOS as it is much more rare and I have not experienced it. Would take some research…
As a long time TOS sufferer I've just tried your practice and I could almost cry. I told my husband I think I wanted to marry you. Which other of your sessions would you recommend (yo add to my normal yoga?) and how often is it ok to do this specific TOS session? ❤
Your comment made my week and I had to share it with my husband! It is an amazing blessing to be able to help you from a video that when I recorded it, was not sure anyone would even watch it. Thank you Jane and continued healing 🙏
Seemingly, sound has disappeared from track!?😶
Hmmmm…just checked and it’s working on my end.
@@MeganMacCarthy Well that's great for you. Unfortunately, absolutely no sound regardless of different browsers being used and sound levels adjusted. Zero sound in UK
