RESULT AFTER 5TH THERAPY SESSION ON MAY 20, 1995.

After the 4th therapy session, the patient experienced no more numbness attack early in the morning.

Before the 5th therapy session, she reported a very slight numbness score of only 0.5 out of 10 in her upper L-arm. The degree of ROM was measured and was observed to maintain at 115 degrees, which was the same as the day before.

After the therapy, she experienced no more numbness in her L-arm and the degree of ROM was drastically increased to 125 degrees. The difference in the angle of maximum upward extension between her L-arm now as compared to that of her R-arm (which was at 130 degrees) was only 5 degrees. The patient and physiotherapist evaluated the treatment for numbness to be "excellent" and ROM to be "excellent" as well.
