This location is a “SECRET” location for fixing chronic neck pain because we hardly see any pain doctors or therapists treating THIS SPOT …
… and it’s by far, the most common location we have to check for adhesion to fix our chronic neck pain patients who have all dad pain:
✅ over 6 months
✅ seen at least 3 docs or therapists without relief.
👉 it’s the nerve roots at scalenes
When there’s adhesion here, it can worsen:
➡️ cervical disc herniations down the upper back and shoulders
➡️ tension headaches
➡️ shoulder pain
➡️ hand and finger tingling or numbness
Think of it this way — all of the major nerves in your arms, forearms, hands, and fingers come out of a 1/2” by 5” space.
That’s a very small area for MANY nerves to cross cross and have an opportunity to get stuck.
A nearly certain way for you to find out in the next 60 seconds If you have adhesion here is to:
👉 bend your head away from the side of your neck that’s tight
👉 with your head bent, drop your shoulder down 1/2”
If whatever symptoms you had when bending your head get worse after you drop your shoulder …
… you have a nerve root entrapment at the scalenes by adhesion.
The BEST part about having this problem is you’ll get some % of permanent relief in 3-5 treatments so you know you’re on the right track and won’t waste any time or money trying something that won’t work!
Note: adhesions aren’t actually blue. We just liked that color against his “red” muscles and “yellow” nerves.
