Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) is a condition caused by compression of nerves and/or blood vessels between the collarbone and first rib — the thoracic outlet. This compression leads to symptoms like pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the neck, shoulder, arm, or hand. TOS can result from poor posture, repetitive overhead activities, trauma, or anatomical variations.
At Family Chiropractic of Clark and New York, Dr. Tricia Mastropietro specializes in diagnosing and treating thoracic outlet syndrome using comprehensive chiropractic care. Our approach focuses on relieving nerve and vascular compression, restoring proper alignment, and improving muscular balance to reduce symptoms and enhance function.
