Alternative to traditional Therapy for people diagnosed with TOS

I found these videos to be remarkable!
Two TOS patient testimonials with very hopeful outcomes.
I hear so much of my own struggles in what each of them shares.

I find such hope in the closely related Feldenkrais and Anat Baniel Methods.
This is worth a look if you want to help yourself or someone you love who is struggling with TOS.



I continue to do Feldenkrais lessons at home via MP3 player, finding it very helpful, relaxing. I am learning so much about my body, learning new ways to move, feeling more graceful and capable.
Those are two words I didn't think I would say about myself ever again.

The symptoms continue

I talked with my son on the phone the other day, asked him if his arm ever bothers him now since his rib resection in 2005.
He said yes.

My heart dropped.

"But, he said, not like before surgery.
It hurts sometimes, when I'm walking around for a long time with it hanging down. I still have to hang my hand on my opposite shoulder to relieve the gravity pulling down on my arm.
Only once in a while, but yes, it still happens."

My son was the first one to blaze the trail of rib resection surgery in our family.
My heart is sad at this news of his continuing symptoms, because I know all too well that ache can keep you from plugging into life when it gets intense.

I wonder what could help him now?

Sigh.
