Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a term that refers to compression of the nerves, arteries and veins in the lower neck and upper chest area.

This compression can cause changes in sensation in the fingers/hands and pain in the arm, shoulder, and neck.

TOS is not the only potential cause of changes in sensation in the hand, arm, neck or shoulder so speak to your Osteopath regarding your symptoms for a complete assessment.

Pain is ESSENTIAL…! There I said it. Believe it or not, without the ability to experience pain, life is dangerous and miserable.

Understandably though, nobody wants to be in pain - it is one of the primary reasons people seek help from an Osteopath. In its various forms, pain can range from ‘an unpleasant experience’ to unbearable and life altering. With it can come fear, loss of function, reduced fulfilment, stigma, isolation and loneliness.

Thankfully, it is now better appreciated that pain is a complex experience and is not often representative of the degree of physical injury present. In fact, pain can be present in the absence of identifiable physical injury!

This is exciting and encouraging as it provides an opportunity to explore and manage pain more holistically and acknowledge all the different factors in a persons life that can come together in a sort of cocktail and influence their pain. This means more strategies to help get you out of pain and back to doing what you love.

Talk to your Osteopath about your pain experience.

Stress is an important feeling BUT….. when we stay in a stressed state for long periods or our stress is excessive, it can cause any number of unpleasant physical signs and symptoms.

Discuss with your Osteopath whether stress might be contributing to your symptoms!

Many of us take this for granted but a recent study found that UK adults with a high level of cardiovascular health (CVH) at 50yrs old, are likely to enjoy almost 7yrs (men) and 9.5yrs (women) longer living free of chronic disease than those with low levels of CVH!

CVH was determined against 8 metrics:

* Not smoking
* Regular physical activity
* Healthy weight
* Healthy diet
* Healthy sleep (avg. 7-9 hrs per night)
* Blood pressure in a healthy range
* Blood glucose in a healthy range
* Non-HDL cholesterol in a healthy range

Significantly, the authors of this study found that theses estimates held true even across different socioeconomic statuses!
