Rib Subluxations Relieved with Chiropractic Adjustments
Rib dysfunction (often called rib “subluxation” in chiropractic care) can create sharp, stabbing pain in the chest or upper back, sometimes worsening with breathing, coughing, or movement. Depending on the level involved, upper rib restrictions may contribute to neck and shoulder tension, mid‑rib irritation can feel alarming and mimic heart or lung discomfort, and lower rib restriction may influence diaphragm motion and breathing mechanics. Gentle chiropractic adjustments aim to restore normal rib and thoracic joint mobility, reduce local inflammation, and ease protective muscle spasm. When appropriately assessed and screened, many patients experience improved breathing comfort, reduced pain, and better overall mobility.😃
