Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS)
Thoracic Outlet Syndrome (TOS) is a group of abnormalities occurring in the upper limbs belt when blood vessels and nerves in the space between the clavicle (collarbone) and the first rib are compressed. The pain usually begins in the neck or shoulder, not infrequently extending to the inner arm, forearm, wrist and hand, and the presence of chest pain. Mild numbness of the lower cervical and upper thoracic vertebrae occurs in 80% of patients.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS)
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a trapped nerve in the hand in a narrow carpal tunnel of the wrist. The problem comes from excessive, monotonous work in the hand area. It is a common problem in people who make their living on the internet, type a lot and hold the mouse for many hours a day. The problem is difficult and easy at the same time because it can involve more widespread health problems.

Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS)
Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS), also known as chronic myofascial pain (CMP), is the presence of multiple trigger points in a certain area of the body (neck and upper back, whole back, lower back and pelvis). Wherever you press in the area of myofascial syndrome there is pain. A striking feature of this syndrome is the constant muscle tension accompanied by intense pain. There are extreme abnormalities where all myofascial chains are broken and pain is present all over the body. As with any syndrome it reduces the quality of life, but delaying treatment can lead to severely controllable abnormalities, so please contact us as soon as the above information resembles your condition.

A common problem among gym members is elementary safety violations and the lack of stretching leading to a decrease in the interval between the bones.
