The thoracic spine, located in the middle and upper back region, plays a crucial role in supporting your posture and facilitating movement. When this area becomes tight and restricted, it can set off a chain reaction of discomfort and pain throughout your body.
Tightness in the thoracic spine can negatively impact your posture. This altered posture can then affect your movement patterns and range of motion. As a result, other muscle structures, such as those in the shoulders and neck, may become overworked as they try to compensate for the limited mobility in the thoracic spine.
