# Alleviate Thoracic Outlet Syndrome with Expert Chiropractic Care at Performance and Recovery Clinic
Thoracic outlet syndrome (TOS) is a complex condition characterized by compression of the nerves and blood vessels between the neck and shoulder, leading to pain, numbness, and weakness in the upper extremities. At Performance and Recovery Clinic, with locations in Carbondale, Basalt, and Aspen, Colorado, we offer specialized chiropractic care designed to address the unique challenges of TOS and promote long-term relief and improved functionality.
## Understanding Thoracic Outlet Syndrome
TOS can manifest in various forms, depending on the structures affected:
- **Neurogenic TOS:** Compression of the brachial plexus nerves, leading to neurological symptoms.
- **Vascular TOS:** Compression of the subclavian artery or vein, resulting in circulatory issues.
- **Disputed TOS:** A controversial diagnosis with nonspecific symptoms that don't clearly fit into the other categories.

At Performance and Recovery Clinic, our chiropractic care offers several advantages for individuals experiencing TOS:
- **Personalized Treatment Plans:** We develop customized treatment plans based on a thorough assessment of your condition, ensuring that your specific needs are addressed.

- **Exercise Rehabilitation:** Tailored exercise programs focus on strengthening the muscles supporting the shoulder and neck, enhancing stability, and improving posture to relieve pressure on the thoracic outlet.
- **Manual Therapy Techniques:** Specialized techniques are employed to alleviate muscle tension, reduce inflammation, and promote healing in the affected area.
