  • Symptoms: Pain, numbness, tingling and paresthesia (pins and needles) in the entire hand. Symptoms may be presented in the forearms and upper arms as well.
  • Cause of Symptoms: Thoracic Outlet Syndrome is caused by compression of the Brachial Plexus that lies between the upper pectoral muscles and the clavicle (collar bone). This compression occurs due to the overly tight restrictive pectoral muscles and anterior shoulder muscles squeezing down on Brachial Plexus while the anterior scalene muscles lift up the first and second ribs, impinging the Brachial Plexus, a unique nerve system containing the median, ulnar and radial nerves, between the muscles, ribs and clavicle.
  • Treatment of Symptoms: FLEXTEND®-AC can assist in reducing the symptoms of Thoracic Outlet Syndrome by stretching and lengthening the overly tight, restrictive deltoid and pectoral muscles, thereby reducing compression of the Brachial Plexus. The  FLEXTEND®-AC also simultaneously strengthens the antagonist muscles in order to help maintain the length created from stretching the pectoral and deltoid muscles.
