    ….and in the ‘relieving stance’ if not needing chest pressure, it is more relieving to extend arms down and flex wrists/hands in toward body. When flared and having difficulty walking, it is helpful to assume the ‘relief stance’ with arms extended, wrists flexed inward and if I alternate flexion of hands, left then right, seriously I can walk better…..

    ….but sometimes the alternating flexionextension of wrists will provoke T4 zone then the ‘relief stance’ with arms extended down slightly forward with both wrists flexed inward provides best relief and stability….seems to ‘open up’, ~relieve pressure in the Thoracic spine. and the cervical area…..

    You can call Drs. Jay Kaiser/Betsy Holland in Marin Country (San Francisco) and send them your DVD of the MRI films for a second overread of your films (for a fee). You can then place their report on this Forum as I trust their reading of films and we can discuss what they found.
