Tingling Numbness in both upper and lower limbs

[alophysio]

Hi,

How you find out if constipation related to thoracic dysfunction??

When you treat the thoracic dysfunction, the constipation goes away. Not very fancy but effective!

I had a friend who couldn't eat a full meal for 2 years because of stomach cramping. 3 treatments to his spine (mainly manipulations to whole spine actually - that is how locked up he was) and he has been eating normally since. They were actually going to do exploratory operations etc. His mother pleaded with me (and him) to see him - we agreed to 3 sessions and he was grateful.

Many other stories like that.

If you closely question your patients, they will tell you things like that but at the time they don't think it is relevant...

Thanks alphysio and Physioindeed for the interesting posts.

guru_utkarsh - Please keep us up on the results of further testing (if any).

Alophysio - I can honestly say I would not even think of treating related to thoracic dysfunction for the above client mainly because I would be wondering if there is some missing information (medical testing). I have been interested in the role of the sympathetic / parasympathetic N.S. in symptoms related to thoracic dysfunction for many years. Can you suggest any specific reading????
