SHOULDER PAIN, RIBCAGE COMPRESSION – NOW DECOMPRESSED AND PAIN-FREE

Tom came to Functional Patterns with noticeable ribcage compression and shoulder pain that was limiting his upper body function. After 6 months of focused training, his spine and ribcage are visibly more decompressed, and his scapular positioning has improved—leading to reduced shoulder discomfort and better upper body alignment.

Before (Feb 26, 2021):
Ribcage compression (vertical and lateral)
Poor scapular positioning
Shoulder pain
Lumbar compression

After (Aug 12, 2021):
Ribcage decompression (expanded vertically and laterally)
Improved scapular alignment
Reduced shoulder pain
Lumbar decompression

Great work, @austin_.jordan (USA)
