March 2026: Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
In this month's topic, we discuss the different types of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome, how to identify them, and how to treat them.
What You’ll Learn:
The foundations of neurodynamic treatment: centralization, symptom modulation, and tissue response.
How to use sliders, tensioners, and isometric contractions based on your neurodynamic exam.
Tailored strategies for high-irritability nerve conditions and complex radiculopathies.
Manual therapy techniques and joint mobilizations that reduce nerve sensitivity.
Case-based clinical reasoning: discogenic pain, foraminal compression, chemical irritation, and more.
Why It Matters:
Most PTs were never taught how to truly treat nerve dysfunction beyond basic theory. This training empowers you to:
Understand the “why” behind treatment failures.
Translate assessment into personalized interventions.
Avoid common pitfalls in nerve symptom management.
Guide patients confidently through healing—even when presentations are messy.
