I am surprised she hasn't mentioned ART to you. I am curious if your scalenes are bound up too. That would explain the tingling and maybe numbness. I was diagnosed with polyneuropathies in 2009 or so.
I don't go to Chirpractors that like to adjust bones and joints. ART is based more on muscle work to free up joints. Different way to look at it.
Good luck and let us know how the treatment is on Friday. She should go right to the neck and feel problems.
