Integrated Solution for Cervicothoracic Syndrome: From Structural Alignment to Cellular Regeneration

by Son’s Rehabilitation Medicine & Chiropractic Clinic in Seoul

Are you suffering from chronic stiffness where your neck meets your shoulders? Do you feel a heavy, burning sensation between your shoulder blades? You might be experiencing Cervicothoracic Syndrome.

At Son Chul-ho Rehabilitation Medicine Clinic, we don’t just treat the symptoms; we restore the system. Our comprehensive approach integrates Chiropractic care, Deep Fascia Therapy, IMS, Nerve Blocks, and PDRN (DNA) injections to provide a permanent solution for chronic pain.

1. Chiropractic Care: Restoring the Upper Cervical & Thoracic Spine

The "Cervicothoracic Junction" (C7-T1) is a mechanical bridge where the mobile neck meets the rigid mid-back.

  • Upper Cervical Focus: Misalignment at the C1-C2 level can disrupt neurological signals, leading to headaches and dizziness.

  • Structural Realignment: Through precise chiropractic adjustments, we correct the "Forward Head Posture" and "Buffalo Hump," restoring the natural curve of your spine and unloading the mechanical stress on your joints.

2. Deep Fascia Therapy: Releasing the "Body's Web"

Chronic pain often lives in the Deep Fascia, the connective tissue surrounding your muscles.

  • When fascia becomes thickened and adhered due to poor posture, it "locks" the pain in place. Our specialized manual therapy targets these deep layers to restore elasticity, ensuring that your chiropractic adjustments "hold" longer and your movement feels fluid again.

3. IMS & Nerve Treatment: Resetting the Nervous System

Persistent pain often means your nerves are in a state of "high alert" (hypersensitivity).

  • IMS (Intramuscular Stimulation): We use fine needles to reach deep, shortened muscles that manual massage cannot touch. This triggers a reflex that forces the muscle to relax and resets the affected nerve.

  • Nerve Hydrodissection: For compressed nerves, we use ultrasound-guided techniques to "wash away" adhesions and inflammation, providing immediate relief from radiating pain and numbness.

4. PDRN (DNA Injection): The Power of Regeneration

To prevent relapse, the damaged ligaments and tendons must be strengthened.

  • PDRN (Polydeoxyribonucleotide): Extracted from salmon DNA, this bio-regenerative treatment stimulates cellular repair and collagen synthesis. By injecting PDRN into the weakened cervicothoracic ligaments, we reinforce the "biological scaffolding" of your spine, promoting long-term stability.

Why Choose Son Chul-ho Rehabilitation Medicine?

We believe that effective rehabilitation requires a multi-dimensional approach.

  1. Align the bone (Chiropractic)

  2. Release the tissue (Fascia & IMS)

  3. Calm the nerve (Nerve Treatment)

  4. Rebuild the structure (PDRN)

This 4-step synergy is what differentiates our clinic. We don't just manage pain—we optimize your musculoskeletal health.

 What is Central Sensitization? by Son PMR(Physical medicine & Rehabilitation ) & Chiropractic Clinic in Seoul Central sensitization refers to a condition where the brain and spinal cord become abnormally sensitive to pain signals following an injury or inflammation. In simpler terms, the pathways that perceive pain become overly reactive, causing individuals to experience excessive pain from minor stimuli or persistent pain even after healing .
