KST A to Z
Arm - lack of motion
Simon Sewert, DC

A lady came by for her 4th KST session today. Her neck now has full range of motion and her shoulder pain left after 3 sessions, good steady progress.
She said that she still couldn't move her left arm very well though.
I checked her left arm, and she couldn't raise it above 90 degrees to the side away from the body.
I got manubrium inferior and left lateral. There was a physical and chemical cause. I adjusted. She said “I felt something really move then”, I asked OD if I should re-check her abduction, got a big “yes.”
I asked her to raise her left arm again and out to her side and it went all the way up to her ear, in full range of motion. “Wow,” she said, “that is amazing, that's like magic.” I thought so too!!
