Ken Olson, Physical Therapist with Northern Rehab in DeKalb, recently attended the American Physical Therapy Association Combined Sections meeting in San Diego, California. While at the conference, he attended sessions on physical therapy management of thoracic outlet syndrome and management of chronic pain syndromes. Thoracic outlet syndrome is a condition characterized by persistent numbness and tingling sensation in the arms and hands with tightness and pain in the neck and upper back. Physical therapists at Northern Rehab are skilled at managing this condition with a program of hands-on manual therapy techniques and exercise combined with patient education on self-management principles of exercise, self-mobilization, and activity modification.
