Neck and chest pain | Manual therapy and massage

The video follows a patient who comes in with pain in the thoracic region, neck, and trapezius muscles. The clinician examines the patient, performs a series of tests—including cervical joint, cervical muscle, Spurling, thoracic muscle, costovertebral joint, and rhomboid muscle tests—and then applies manual therapy to the cervical spine, thoracic region, and cervicothoracic junction, followed by massage and a trapezius muscle stretch. The goal is to positively influence the pain through manual therapy and massage. 00:00 Introduction 00:37 What worries the patient? 01:19 Cervical joint test 02:32 Cervical muscle test 03:34 Spurling test 04:28 Thoracic muscle test 05:18 Test of costovertebral joints 05:54 Rhomboid muscle test 06:29 Manual therapy of the cervical spine 08:11 Manual therapy of the thoracic region 08:40 Cervicothoracic junction therapy 09:20 Massage 10:06 Trapezius muscle stretch
