Spinal decompression treatment is a non-surgical, drugless, and non-invasive treatment that has helped patients who have suffered from bulging discs, degenerative disc disease, or facet syndrome. Over the past 15 years its popularity has been rising as it represents an excellent alternative to surgery. The cost of spinal decompression is less than 5% of the cost of surgery, and the risk profile is very low.

Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, also known as TOS, is a compression of either spinal nerves or blood vessels. The brachial plexus supplies the upper limb with both sensory and motor nerve fibers, and the subclavian artery supplies the blood supply. There are four areas where the plexus and artery may be and in each instance, the symptoms will present differently.

One question that I hear all the time from my patients is “how does my wife or husband know if they should be seeing a chiropractor?” There are multiple ways to know if you should be seeing a chiropractor and not all of them have to do with pain and discomfort. I have developed a test for the neck to determine if you are a candidate for chiropractic care called the “head turn test”.

In my clinic patients who receive spinal decompression treatment for herniated discs are first treated with ultrasound to heat up the connective tissue allowing the tissue to elongate easier. Ultrasound treatment prior to spinal decompression makes the treatment more effective.

At times, the shoulder and arm pain occur due to obvious reasons. For example, if an object fell onto the arm or if you hit the arm against something. Sometimes, the pain develop right away, other times, it might take a few days. Eventually, you find out that you may have fractured a bone, dislocated a joint, or just bruised it.
