Head/neck misalignment alters the biomechanics of the cervical spine. The gravitational forces being applied as a result of this can cause compensatory changes in the thoracic area.
Realign the head and neck properly, and the pressure within the thoracic spine goes away.

Why do you think upper cervical care would help? Would that help my thoracic region?
Right now, the chiropractor I'm seeing it doing decompressions, realignments and some soft tissue work on my neck. There's not a whole lot to it, but I didn't know if there's more?
I'm not a fan of injections either. I'm not sure what type of chiropractic you're receiving, but you might consider finding an Upper Cervical specialist in the Scottsdale area. Here's a link of doctors in Arizona: http://tinyurl.com/c2adwk
Upper Cervical Care may be a good avenue to pursue at this point.
