The first technique worked perfectly, so perfectly that as soon as i took a deep breath after doing it a few times I became emotional because I could finally take that breath without the pain. The tears caught me off guard. I guess I didn’t realize how much my costochondritis had been affecting me mentally. From the bottom of heart, thank you for this!
Why can't I seem to find doctors like this that want to actually help me. Every Doctor I've been to is so quick to prescribe medicine or tell me it's most likely the anxiety causing me all this debilitating discomfort.
You have literally saved my life, too many years with breathing problems, anxiety, tried everything and I just needed this, thank you so much for this video, I'll always be grateful with you
I had the flu for a month followed by acute bronchitis with bronchial spasms. After that I noticed a progressive chest pain that spread to my upper back and most recently my sternum in the form of a throb. I checked my blood pressure consistently and got back on meds but even with pressure together still experiencing those aches. Having come across these recommended stretches for the first time just now, and trying them, I do feel like deep breathing is easier despite the pain. Thank you so much!
My first attempt doing this my chest popped and one of my ribs moved back into its proper place. Been struggling with pains in my back for over two years and this did the trick. This is really amazing I can also breath deep without my sides hurting 💚
My sternum has been popping and hurting for months, this immediately made me feel so much better and like I can actually expand my chest and breathe again. Thank you so much you da man🤞
My most deepest Thanks 🙏 Dr. Rowe for sharing your knowledge with the world. My husband bumped his head from the top down and shifted one if his ribs from his sternum causing him a great deal of pain. I showed him this video and soon after a few reps, he had no more pain, it WORK! Thank you so much, I for helping my husband get back to normal.
First attempt I felt my rib shift all through my back and into my shoulder blade. I’m breathing normally again. This was literally amazing. Seriously thank you…
I've been dealing with costochondritis for about 6 months... I've even been to a doctor for it but this video is the only relief I've gotten in months!! Thank you so much now I can sleep!
Oh my god I’ve been sleeping so poorly and have been having panic attacks this last week due to how uncomfortable my rib was when I was laying down. This helped so much! Thank you
I had been suffering at work all day. I came home and tried this, immediate relief! I usually don't comment on videos but you sir saved the day. Thank you so much!
Wow! I’ve had pain and popping in my sternum for a while now, doctor said it’s just muscular, but after doing this exercise I could FEEL my rib pop back into place! It was an instant relief of pain. Thank you ❤
It is amazing how quickly you feel the positive effects of doing this simple maneuver, I’m super thankful to you for making this video. I’ve always thought I had lung/heart problems because I’d feel intense pain in my left rib cage area and it got so bad at one point I went to the doctor and got all kinds of tests done just to be told there’s nothing wrong with me it must be a muscular thing so I was prescribed muscle relaxers. But after taking them and still feeling pain I was deeply upset. Found your video the other week tried it out and now I’m literally 100% better now! No need for pills and no more thinking I have serious chest problems. Once again thank you !!!!!!!!
Yeah almost the same for me. I actually went to the ER some days ago thinking that i was having a heartattack or something. They didnt find anything wrong with me. But this video helped me alot, like almost all the pain is gone.
WOW!!!!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I'm a stay at home mom with an 8mo and I'm pregnant. I can't afford to be immobile! My sternum hurt so bad. I definitely had a rib or two out of alignment. THIS HELPED SO MUCH. I wasn't able to take a deep breath or reach to my right without a sharp pain in my sternum but after this exercise I can take a deep breath and move freely. I'm so happy I feel like crying, I'm so incredibly appreciative of you video!
OMMMMGGG IVE WATCHED COUNTLESS RUclips VIDEOS BUT THIS ONE WORKED FOR ME, THANKS YOU SO MUCH I FEEL SO RELIEVED AFTER SO MANY MONTHS. IM LEGIT CRYING RIGHT NOW 😭 😭
I was skeptical about you having only positive comments at first as if they were bots but you sir are a life saver you have no idea the weight that was lifted off my shoulders god bless 💯
This helped me immediately. Been dealing with this sternum pain and discomfort since I was little. It was a due to when ran into the wall driving a go cart and I went forward and the steering wheel cushion hit my sternum and I've literally had this issue for about 22 years, ever since i've been uncomfortable and always adjusting. I didn't want to tell my mother at the time because I was embarrassed even though I was about 7 or 8 y/o. Today Holy Spirit placed it in my mind to search how to fix it. After thinking one last time how I might fix it on my own, I was giving the idea to search online. Then you popped up, it showed it was a short video, I clicked, watched and did what you said, and pop! My right side rib in the sternum and even all the way down to my right side of my back popped. The relief was instant and I'm feeling my shoulder on the same side start to release and get what feels to be more blood circulation or as if a muscle had fallen asleep for a long time and is now waking back up, is the best way I know to explain it. I thought I was going to live with this the rest of my life or that I would maybe grow out of it or just stretch I was able to do everything still but inside my mind it was always a thought that followed my and always just wished I could take that moment back. But God literally led me to you today! Of all days when i've been praying and asking Him how to fix this and that's when the chain of events that led me to you happened. Thank you Adonai and you Dr. Michael. You'll be sent my support as soon as I can. May you and your family be greatly blessed with peace and all that God has planned for your life.
Thank you so much my top right rib had popped out for the first time! I tried it in the door way and my fiancé heard it pop from the other side of the room 😂 I can finally breathe!
You Sir are a star ⭐️ has been really uncomfortable for the past 24 hours, struggled sleeping because of this pain, and God knows why I am so lucky to stumble on your video as soon as started searching for a solution. Tried the second method 3-4 times against the wall and felt the pop, have been so much better since 👏👏
I wish I could like this video a thousand times! I’ve been suffering for 6 months now and this worked when nothing else did. Even my doctor couldn’t help me. Thank you so much! I subscribed & can’t wait to watch your other videos!
I think this video just saved my day, I woke up with this chest pain and usually I just need to make my chest bone crack to get some relief, but today it wasn't working 😵 Thank you so much for this video!
After being unable to take a deep breath or twist my torso at all for days, I tried method 1. I didn't hear a "crack" like when you crack your knuckles, but I most definitely heard a very deep "thunk" sound, and I felt something shift in my chest. There was then a slight warmth by my rib area (didn't hurt at all, just felt warm.) Things felt a little better instantly, but by the next day, I'd say 90% of the pain is relieved and my range of motion is almost entirely restored. I can tell now it's just a matter of the soft tissue around the rib calming down. Thanks for these techniques!
I went to the doctor and say my sternum felt “stuck” and it’s been causing me chronic stress but they couldn’t figure it out. I did the first exercise and had six massive pops that my girlfriend heard from downstairs. I can take a full breath again finally! I think experiencing positive Gs every week as a pilot probably caused it but I feel so much better
Wow! This really worked! Thank you so much. My sternum was killing me. I was contorting my shoulders and trying to stretch my arms in all kind of ways to find relief. This provided almost immediate relief!
I’ve had chest pain and random popping for the last couple months and it would actually restrict how much I could breath some times. After watching this video I did the door method and had a huge release and finally have relief
OMG I AM ADDING THIS TO MULTIPLE PLAYLISTS SO I NEVER LOSE IT. I WENT TO PT FOR FIVE MONTHS AND GOT MORE IMMEDIATE RELIEF FROM THE FIRST ONE YOU SHOWED US. SERIOUSLY FEELS BETTER FOR MY BREATHING.... THE PAIN IS SEVERLY REDUCED ALLOWING ME TO BREATHE MORE DEEPLY. NORTHERN MICHIGAN GAL HERE
Neither of these methods INITIALLY worked for me, they offered a little relief but I continued to rotate between both for about 15-20 min and finally arched my back and got it to pop. It’s 3 am and I’m so grateful. I’m still sore because it’s been out since 10 pm but I can finally breathe again. If it doesn’t work right away for you, keep stretching it out! So grateful. Thank you! Unfortunately I get it on both sides so I was worried that I didn’t know what side to do this on and ended up rotating back and forth.
Can I just say your channel is amazing!!! This has helped me a lot. I used to go to the chiropractor but haven’t been able to. From work and day to day I have some pressure, dull pain, and tightness your videos have helped me and made me feel sooooo much better with self adjustment.
Excellent. Thank you so much. I’ve been in so much pain for almost 4 weeks. I followed your instructions and it worked!!!! It was on my right side right - it doesn’t hurt when I cough at all and I can easily take a deep breath again. Wow! I’ve been so upset from the pain since this injury and it’s been hard to sleep. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom.
I cannot thank you enough!!!! i’ve slept on my left side for literally years to a point where it felt like my rib was slightly popped out compared to then others. its 3am and i was in discomfort and came across your video and wow! felt a light pop and i feel 100% perfect
This was absolutely incredible! I never thought such instant relief were possible... I have been all sorts of stretch/movement to alleviate it and this was instant! Thank you thank you thank you!
This video deserves millions of views. I was born with a funnel chest so experiencing pain in my sternum was extremely uncomfortable and the NHS in the UK would not help me and I couldn’t afford private care. I don’t always consider self adjusting, but I gave this adjustment a try. Surprisingly it worked wonders and I was genuinely in disbelief at how many deep breaths I could take. Thank you man!
I have tried the techniques and found the stretching of my arm and rolling over to have to biggest impact. Thank you. I also tried the self adjustment of my lower back from another video of yours. Great success. Again thank you.
I have costochrondritis, & it’s been the longest 3 months ever. ER visits, worry, anxiety, chiropractor…. NSAIDs, Ointments etc…… this video just might be the HOLY GRAIL. how often would you suggest this movement? I’m ready to get back in the gym. It’s a relief I can’t explain
I dislocated my ribs while starting golf, by the grace of god the first time I was randomly stretching it pop back in. I thought it would be fine to go play golf again…. Guess what I dislocated again…… Found this video and was able to put back in place!!!!!!! Thank you so much. This was a so easy that I was able to listen to the video in a car. Pull over in a Lowe’s parking lot and was able to fix my pain. Literally was thinking about going to a chiropractor for X-ray and adjustment today. Thank you so much again !!!!!! ❤
Never heard of the term Costochondritis but after some searching, this is definitely a presence in my life. You should have heard the noises that came for this adjustment. Thank you so much for this video!
it’s been a while since i’ve felt chest pains and tried this technique, but it happened again today when i woke up and when i clicked on this video and did the steps again, i can now breathe properly. thank you so much, this is very helpful!
Thanks a million for posting this! On Christmas, I was at a friend's house, sitting on an uncomfortable couch. By the end of the day, I was really hurting. Your video really helped me. Much appreciated!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! I was elbowed in the chest real hard last week playing a sport and have been out of action for 2 weeks. I just came across your video and tried this. The pain? What pain 😭😭 thank you so very much. 🙏❤
What an amazing technique and detailed instruction. It saved me a paid visit to the chiropractor. Now, I can enjoy the rest of my day pain-free. Thank you!
WHAT THE F i was self diagnosing myslef with breast cancer or something because of the constant pain! you have no idea what you just did for my mental health
I went through the SAME exact thing. 7 months of being thrown around by doctors and my physical therapist found it while assessing me. I kept telling my doctors “it feels like my right side is just giving up, internally and physically” and they prescribed me antipsychotics lmfao
I came here to get just to find out why I feel pain in my sternum. I didn't think it was natural for this uncomfortable feeling I always have. So enlightening!!! Thank you!!!
Ok, I broke my back over a year ago and have been to so many doctors, and I tell them about my rib pain and they all say it's bruised and this, that, and the other, but the pain is always there. I watched this video, and this technique instantly popped something, and I felt instant relief. What's wrong with our healthcare system if, after spending all this money, I find my healing through this RUclips video? Thank you!
This works so well am a 13 year old boy who had to experience this for weeks and I gave up on sports clause it hurt so much but now I can breath and get up normaly thank you so much for this relife and I appreciate your explaining this in detail and I hope you make more videos to help people
I can’t believe this actually worked! I was super skeptical at first but I’ve been dealing with this pain for so long I thought why not? and i actually got the pop I wanted it was amazing!
Omg thank you! I have chronic costochondritis since like forever because I have fibromyalgia and tonight I was having awful lot of pain, this Sir, relieved me, I feel I can breathe!
Thank you for this info! I remember having a costo episode years ago, before I was diagnosed. I was in constant severe pain for a week and could not sleep. I hadn't heard of costochondritis at the time so I thought it was gas. Never have I had such pain. I went to a doctor. They couldn't help me, nor did they know what was wrong. However, when I bent over to tie my shoe while still on the table, I heard a pop sound. Suddenly, my pain was all gone. Years later I went to my PCP who was actually able to help me, and quickly told me what it was without hesitation. It was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.
So, I've been going to a Primary Care DO for the last few years for her to manipulate my rib back in. Never once did she let me know that I could do this myself. I picked up something that I shouldn't have about 2 weeks ago and haven't been able to get in with my Dr so I went to a chiropractor. He had not heard of a rib popping but decided that it had to do with my spine so he has worked on my back twice. Never my rib. Yesterday I ended up at the ER. The Dr there of course had never heard of a rib popping out and working it back in. Thank you for this video and your help! It's so good to know that I can now do this myself and get some tried. I just sent your video to my 4 daughters who know what I have been going through.
I am grateful for this video. I have been having a pinch in my left rib cage, it’s worrisome for me as I just finished radiation of left breast. This video help relieved that pain. It’s still there but not nearly as bad as it had been. I am hoping with repeated use it will subside completely. Thank you for taking the time in making this.
Bro, no way. I have had difficulties with breathing like a year. And thought it was astma. Did this and now can breathe. Bro what ?! Thank u very much man fr !!
my medical schedule is less than a month away. at first I was nervous because my sternum still hurts, however when I watched your video and imitated it, I felt better because my sternum pain is gone.. thank you very much bro, keep it up!!
extremely well spoken doc ! important knowledge presented in an absolutely perfect and efficient manner ! you'd make the perfect teacher / proffesor . and i just discovered i have this rib / sternum inflamation , probably from bench presses or decades of construction work . this provided immeadiate lessening of tightness and deeper breaths . thanx 4 vid !!!
Thank you so much. You have blessed me. I was laying on my right side for 9 months due to left side numbness caused by Thoracic Outlet Syndrome that I was addressing through stretches and postural PT. I also had a persistent cough for 8 weeks. I was also laying on a pillow because I wanted more thoracic comfort on a sunken mattress...thinking it would be harmless to my spine. I was so wrong. These 3 circumstances combined... had shifted maybe 3 of my left ribs. Felt lots of sharp pains in random areas of the left chest from the slightest movements for the past month. Now, I can finally breathe/sit/drive/move in peace!!
Maybe it isn't a costochondritis. It could be a problem with the serratus anterior or some other muscle that works on inspiration, although I don't know much about the problem so I'm probably wrong.
Ive had an xray, a ct scan, an ekg, and blood work twice. I was leaning back to button my pants just now and felt a hard "pop" in my chest where its been hurting for 3 months. I never knew you could put a front rib out of place. (Apparently my doctor didnt either). Thank you so much for sharing this information with the world. I just got lucky and my rib popped itself back in place, I can feel the relief already.
@@DrRowe Sorry if this isn't the best place for this, but are these exercises meant to put your ribs fully back into place and never pop back out? Or are these exercises meant as some sort of daily maintenance? I did it and felt my rib pop back into place, and now I have greater range of movement but there are still some positions, leaning way back or twisting my body to the right, where my rib (#6 or 7 on my left front side) will pop/click again. Is there a permanent fix for that or is this the best I can hope for?
I've had Costochondritis for 10 years. The Backpod really works. It's actually a rib injury at the back. Although this might provide temp relief, the backpod will fix the root cause.
Oh man! That first technique is so effective i tried it just now. Such a wonderful person you are giving this very helpful tips to everyone. May Godbless you always and thank you very much!
👉👉 Let us know how this worked for you in the comments section. We appreciate it!
@Hello Newman! give this a try: ruclips.net/video/K6UJLJ8pbb4/видео.html
hi can you do a video on adjusting ankles or elbows
Dr. What causes this to happen?
I have a rib that pos out in the back, generally on my right side toward the top near shoulder blade. Do you have suggestions for that?
Any news about back ribs?
The first technique worked perfectly, so perfectly that as soon as i took a deep breath after doing it a few times I became emotional because I could finally take that breath without the pain. The tears caught me off guard. I guess I didn’t realize how much my costochondritis had been affecting me mentally. From the bottom of heart, thank you for this!
That’s amazing! I’m really glad it made a huge difference for you.
@@DrRowe i can feel tension in my left rib when i apply pressure but im afraid to add more because im afraid that something may go wrong 😢😢😢
@@ayb1550 Don't be scared. Just do it!
Exactly the same just got a little click not I can move thanks !!
Lindsey, i was also worried to be cancer or something worst, i know what you feel because i am passing throught it right now
Why can't I seem to find doctors like this that want to actually help me. Every Doctor I've been to is so quick to prescribe medicine or tell me it's most likely the anxiety causing me all this debilitating discomfort.
Most doctors are drug dealers making commission from big pharma. Same reason they aren’t helping anyone with covid
Cause capitalism. I’ve had the same issues as you and I’m sorry you’ve experienced that
Their job is to sell medicine above all else
Coz 💰
Same
Years and years of sternum pain and this literally just made me have by first deep breath without pain in so long. Blew my mind
Glad you found the video and are getting relief!
You have literally saved my life, too many years with breathing problems, anxiety, tried everything and I just needed this, thank you so much for this video, I'll always be grateful with you
Glad you found the video and the exercises are helping, and thanks for watching!

Thanks so much for watching!
Neither of these methods INITIALLY worked for me, they offered a little relief but I continued to rotate between both for about 15-20 min and finally arched my back and got it to pop. It’s 3 am and I’m so grateful. I’m still sore because it’s been out since 10 pm but I can finally breathe again. If it doesn’t work right away for you, keep stretching it out! So grateful. Thank you! Unfortunately I get it on both sides so I was worried that I didn’t know what side to do this on and ended up rotating back and forth.
Glad you’re getting relief, and thanks for watching!
Can I just say your channel is amazing!!! This has helped me a lot. I used to go to the chiropractor but haven’t been able to. From work and day to day I have some pressure, dull pain, and tightness your videos have helped me and made me feel sooooo much better with self adjustment.
I’m glad we are able to help, and thanks for watching!
Excellent. Thank you so much. I’ve been in so much pain for almost 4 weeks. I followed your instructions and it worked!!!! It was on my right side right - it doesn’t hurt when I cough at all and I can easily take a deep breath again. Wow! I’ve been so upset from the pain since this injury and it’s been hard to sleep. Thank you so much for sharing your wisdom.
I just fixed my six-month chest pain. Thank you!
Great to hear! Thanks for watching.
Is it gone permanently????
did u have scoliosis or ??
I cannot thank you enough!!!! i’ve slept on my left side for literally years to a point where it felt like my rib was slightly popped out compared to then others. its 3am and i was in discomfort and came across your video and wow! felt a light pop and i feel 100% perfect
Glad to hear you’re getting relief!
This was absolutely incredible! I never thought such instant relief were possible... I have been all sorts of stretch/movement to alleviate it and this was instant! Thank you thank you thank you!
Glad you're getting instant relief!
This video deserves millions of views.
I was born with a funnel chest so experiencing pain in my sternum was extremely uncomfortable and the NHS in the UK would not help me and I couldn’t afford private care.
I don’t always consider self adjusting, but I gave this adjustment a try. Surprisingly it worked wonders and I was genuinely in disbelief at how many deep breaths I could take.
Thank you man!
I have tried the techniques and found the stretching of my arm and rolling over to have to biggest impact. Thank you. I also tried the self adjustment of my lower back from another video of yours. Great success. Again thank you.
Glad it helped and thanks for watching!
First exercise helped like a charm. You've just saved me 100s of dollars of chiropractor visits. Thank you!!!!!
Happy to help!
The first part helped my breathing so perfectly, I will show this to my friends if they need help. Thank you!
I have costochrondritis, & it’s been the longest 3 months ever. ER visits, worry, anxiety, chiropractor…. NSAIDs, Ointments etc…… this video just might be the HOLY GRAIL. how often would you suggest this movement? I’m ready to get back in the gym. It’s a relief I can’t explain
My chest FINALLY popped and I feel so much better!!! It has been bugging me for a week now!!!
Glad it helped, and thanks for watching!
You literally have a video for every kind of problem. Thanks a lot!
We’re slowly getting there 😂 thanks for watching!
I dislocated my ribs while starting golf, by the grace of god the first time I was randomly stretching it pop back in. I thought it would be fine to go play golf again…. Guess what I dislocated again……
Found this video and was able to put back in place!!!!!!! Thank you so much. This was a so easy that I was able to listen to the video in a car. Pull over in a Lowe’s parking lot and was able to fix my pain.
Literally was thinking about going to a chiropractor for X-ray and adjustment today. Thank you so much again !!!!!! ❤
Never heard of the term Costochondritis but after some searching, this is definitely a presence in my life. You should have heard the noises that came for this adjustment. Thank you so much for this video!
I hope the exercises help for a long time to come, thank you so much for watching.
it’s been a while since i’ve felt chest pains and tried this technique, but it happened again today when i woke up and when i clicked on this video and did the steps again, i can now breathe properly. thank you so much, this is very helpful!
Glad the exercises are helping you, and thanks for watching!
Thanks a million for posting this! On Christmas, I was at a friend's house, sitting on an uncomfortable couch. By the end of the day, I was really hurting. Your video really helped me. Much appreciated!
Glad the video helped, and thanks so much for watching!
ARE YOU KIDDING ME!! I was elbowed in the chest real hard last week playing a sport and have been out of action for 2 weeks. I just came across your video and tried this. The pain? What pain 😭😭 thank you so very much. 🙏❤
Wonderful to hear you’re getting quick relief!
What an amazing technique and detailed instruction. It saved me a paid visit to the chiropractor. Now, I can enjoy the rest of my day pain-free. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
WHAT THE F i was self diagnosing myslef with breast cancer or something because of the constant pain! you have no idea what you just did for my mental health
Hope the exercises help for a long time to come!
I went through the SAME exact thing. 7 months of being thrown around by doctors and my physical therapist found it while assessing me. I kept telling my doctors “it feels like my right side is just giving up, internally and physically” and they prescribed me antipsychotics lmfao
At 9 years old, I told my mom I was having a myocardial infarction
After repeating several times. it worked! Huhuhu. Im in pain for the past 2 weeks. This is magic! Thank you so much!!!
Fantastic!!!! Woke up sore, did a search and found your video. Instant relief. Still sore, but nowhere as sore as I felt!
Great to hear you got instant relief, and thanks for watching!
I came here to get just to find out why I feel pain in my sternum. I didn't think it was natural for this uncomfortable feeling I always have. So enlightening!!! Thank you!!!
Thanks for watching!
OMG IT worked I was so uncomfortable now I'm ok thank you😭
GREAT to hear! Thanks for watching.
@@DrRowe thanks so much
Ok, I broke my back over a year ago and have been to so many doctors, and I tell them about my rib pain and they all say it's bruised and this, that, and the other, but the pain is always there. I watched this video, and this technique instantly popped something, and I felt instant relief. What's wrong with our healthcare system if, after spending all this money, I find my healing through this RUclips video? Thank you!
Now it hurts so much less thank you
Great to hear that! Thanks for watching too.
THANK YOU! After waking up with a flare I’ve actually managed to go back to bed comfortably. You’re an actual diamond.
Glad you’re getting relief, and thanks for watching!
This works so well am a 13 year old boy who had to experience this for weeks and I gave up on sports clause it hurt so much but now I can breath and get up normaly thank you so much for this relife and I appreciate your explaining this in detail and I hope you make more videos to help people
I can’t believe this actually worked! I was super skeptical at first but I’ve been dealing with this pain for so long I thought why not? and i actually got the pop I wanted it was amazing!
Glad you gave the exercises a chance and they’re helping, thanks for watching too!
THANKS A LOT!!! You safed me a visit at the doc.
Glad it helped, and thanks for watching!
Omg thank you! I have chronic costochondritis since like forever because I have fibromyalgia and tonight I was having awful lot of pain, this Sir, relieved me, I feel I can breathe!
Great to hear you’re getting relief, and thanks for watching!
Thank you for this info!
I remember having a costo episode years ago, before I was diagnosed. I was in constant severe pain for a week and could not sleep. I hadn't heard of costochondritis at the time so I thought it was gas. Never have I had such pain. I went to a doctor. They couldn't help me, nor did they know what was wrong. However, when I bent over to tie my shoe while still on the table, I heard a pop sound. Suddenly, my pain was all gone. Years later I went to my PCP who was actually able to help me, and quickly told me what it was without hesitation. It was like a weight had been lifted off my shoulders.
So, I've been going to a Primary Care DO for the last few years for her to manipulate my rib back in. Never once did she let me know that I could do this myself. I picked up something that I shouldn't have about 2 weeks ago and haven't been able to get in with my Dr so I went to a chiropractor. He had not heard of a rib popping but decided that it had to do with my spine so he has worked on my back twice. Never my rib. Yesterday I ended up at the ER. The Dr there of course had never heard of a rib popping out and working it back in. Thank you for this video and your help! It's so good to know that I can now do this myself and get some tried. I just sent your video to my 4 daughters who know what I have been going through.
As always, I can’t thank you enough for relieving pain I’ve suffered with for years! 🙌🏼
Thanks again for watching!
I am grateful for this video. I have been having a pinch in my left rib cage, it’s worrisome for me as I just finished radiation of left breast. This video help relieved that pain. It’s still there but not nearly as bad as it had been. I am hoping with repeated use it will subside completely. Thank you for taking the time in making this.
Glad you're getting relief!
Holy shit , my pain is gone and i can breathe freely again.
Wonderful to hear you're getting relief!
I have been sneezing alot lately. then I notice this chest pain. I associate it with the sneezing. your video had given me some relief. thank you.
Glad it helped! Thanks for watching too.
Dude you saved my life. My first rib had been out for months at the back and this made it pop right into place!
Glad you found the video!
Bro, no way. I have had difficulties with breathing like a year. And thought it was astma. Did this and now can breathe. Bro what ?! Thank u very much man fr !!
Glad you found the video, and I hope the exercises help you for a long time to come.
I had this pain and tightness in my chest for years. And just like that gone! Thank you thank you thank you!
my medical schedule is less than a month away. at first I was nervous because my sternum still hurts, however when I watched your video and imitated it, I felt better because my sternum pain is gone.. thank you very much bro, keep it up!!
extremely well spoken doc ! important knowledge presented in an absolutely perfect and efficient manner ! you'd make the perfect teacher / proffesor . and i just discovered i have this rib / sternum inflamation , probably from bench presses or decades of construction work . this provided immeadiate lessening of tightness and deeper breaths . thanx 4 vid !!!
Thanks for the kind words, and I hope the exercises help for a long time to come!
Thank you so much. You have blessed me. I was laying on my right side for 9 months due to left side numbness caused by Thoracic Outlet Syndrome that I was addressing through stretches and postural PT. I also had a persistent cough for 8 weeks. I was also laying on a pillow because I wanted more thoracic comfort on a sunken mattress...thinking it would be harmless to my spine. I was so wrong. These 3 circumstances combined... had shifted maybe 3 of my left ribs. Felt lots of sharp pains in random areas of the left chest from the slightest movements for the past month. Now, I can finally breathe/sit/drive/move in peace!!
Glad you’re getting relief, and thanks for watching!
Me:*watches every video to crack bones*
also me:*never works*
Maybe it isn't a costochondritis. It could be a problem with the serratus anterior or some other muscle that works on inspiration, although I don't know much about the problem so I'm probably wrong.
@@Apolo044 away
same :/
I just didn’t this at 430am waking up from horrible pain. Thank you very much
Glad to hear you’re getting relief, and thanks for watching!
Worked!!! I had this exact issue and it brought me out of pain. Thanks!
THANK YOU for supporting the channel, I appreciate your generosity! - Dr. Rowe -
Worked instantly, much thanks. I was afraid to do it my self until i watched this.
Glad you're getting relief!
Thank you very much for this video! It had some very uncomfortable rib issues and this really helped to relieve the pain and fixed my issues there!
Glad it's helping, and thanks for watching!
Ive had an xray, a ct scan, an ekg, and blood work twice.
I was leaning back to button my pants just now and felt a hard "pop" in my chest where its been hurting for 3 months. I never knew you could put a front rib out of place. (Apparently my doctor didnt either). Thank you so much for sharing this information with the world. I just got lucky and my rib popped itself back in place, I can feel the relief already.
Great to hear you’re getting relief, and thanks for watching!
@@DrRowe Sorry if this isn't the best place for this, but are these exercises meant to put your ribs fully back into place and never pop back out? Or are these exercises meant as some sort of daily maintenance? I did it and felt my rib pop back into place, and now I have greater range of movement but there are still some positions, leaning way back or twisting my body to the right, where my rib (#6 or 7 on my left front side) will pop/click again. Is there a permanent fix for that or is this the best I can hope for?
I've had Costochondritis for 10 years. The Backpod really works. It's actually a rib injury at the back. Although this might provide temp relief, the backpod will fix the root cause.
Got mine from aged care. Have pain under left breast and to the side n back. Have been coughing a lot and seemed to make it worse
Oh man! That first technique is so effective i tried it just now. Such a wonderful person you are giving this very helpful tips to everyone. May Godbless you always and thank you very much!
Thank you for the kind words, and for watching!
Over 2 weeks of pain gone with a 5 min video. 😊 thanks
That’s fantastic!
I had pain under the armpit when taking a deep breath and pain in the rib.. this fix it immediately. Thank you ❤
Thank you sir. Couldn't get the pop but felt instant relief. Such a blessing.
Main thing is you're getting relief, and thanks so much for watching!
I took pain killer.muscle relaxant. But no use. This first trick helped. Thank you very much brother
Glad it helped you!
This definitely helped me. Be warned, the blood rush that you get from the first few reps if you do it right is intense lol
Glad the exercises are helping, and thanks for watching!
Thank you. Been dealing with a spot for almost a year. Feels better after one. Doesn't feel like it needs to pop anymore. Will continue.
I have costochondritis and this is a life saver 😭
Awesome to hear it helped you!
I tried this last night, and it did not work. I tried it again tonight and it worked! I’m so relieved!
Sometimes it just takes a couple sessions. Glad it finally worked for you!
