had a similar patient last year, pressing on a point on the R) rhomboids area, elicited tingling and numbness in right hand.....she got better with STM, TENS, Heat, Stretches and modification of her daily routine....(she worked on a farm).....

I found in her case she had very weak musculature in general esp upper body and she was overweight with asthma.....

In your case it sounds like a trigger point (referred symptoms??)....how are his Neural tension tests..??
