The effects of a fixed 1st rib can have wider implications than decreased movement at the site of the sternoclavicular joint.
Some of the global effects might include a decreased capacity to breathe effectively, postural changes i.e. kyphosis, it affects shoulder function/ROM, organ motility and mobility, head placement and can place stress on other structures both hard and soft. As you can see, a lack of glide between the clavicle and sternum has a much wider impact than just at the joint.
Today I am exploring how to prepare the area and access it. It can be a very sensitive area and needs a slower, softer approach before actually applying more specific and deeper techniques.
