Today's video for our rib and thoracic series is looking at how to deal with and help the pain and symptoms resulting from an intercostal muscle strain.
This could occur post-cold or illness with coughing, direct trauma to the area, sudden twisting/ rotation in the body or even lifting etc.
We strongly recommend getting your thoracic spine and ribs assessed properly by a musculoskeletal expert before trying these exercises to determine the working diagnosis as other treatments may be more appropriate and required to help initially.
In the video Louise demonstrates:
1. The typical signs and symptoms of an intercostal muscle strain
2. How to add heat to the area
3. How to mobilise the thoracic spine & ribs
4. How to release the diaphragm
