title: Bilateral leg symptoms--the T10 syndrome?
abstract: Prior studies have investigated the role of the sympathetic nervous system and the thoracic spine related to the upper extremities (known as the T4 syndrome). However, there is only little known about the role of the thoracic spine related to the lower extremities. In this case report, a patient with a heavy, tired feeling in both legs and hypomobile thoracic segments was treated with passive mobilisations of the thoracic spine.
