Learn Muscle Anatomy: Trapezius The trapezius, along with the rhomboideus major and minor, and levator scapulae, work together to elevate the shoulder. Scapula adduction, or the act of moving your arm and shoulder backwards, involves the trapezius and the rhomboids. The trapezius also acts in head/neck extension, or the act of tilting your head back.

Mastoid process Mastoid process Function. It acts as an important site of attachment for the following muscles present in the neck: 1  Longissimus capitis. 2  Splenius capitis. 3  Digastric posterior belly.4  Sternocleidomastoid.astoid process Location. It is located behind the external acoustic meatus and lateral to the styloid process. In simpler words, as a part of the skull, the conical prominence is situated just behind the ears. The vertebral level of this bone is C1.

Regions of the Head and Neck Posterior Cervical Region. The region posterior to the anterior borders of (i.e., corresponding to the area of) the trapezius is the posterior cervical region. Its main content is the trapezius muscle which runs down to the posterolateral aspect of the trunk. The sub-occipital triangle or region lies deep to the posterior cervical region.

LAB 2 Introduction • Examine and transect (the remaining) five of the eight extrinsic muscles of the thoracic limb: - omotransversarius m. (covering the superficial cervical lymph node) - trapezius m. (has cervical and thoracic parts) - rhomboideus m., three divisions: r. capitis, r. cervicis, and r. thoracis.

Trapezius With loss of trapezius function, shoulder abduction is limited. • Forward flexion of the shoulder, on the other hand, requires upward rotation of the scapula by the serratus with the scapula abducted from the midline. Therefore, with abnormal trapezius function, the patient can forward flex the shoulder more.

Trapezius The trapezius is the most superficial (nearest to the skin) of the back, neck, and upper trunk muscles. This triangular muscle is broad and flat, lying just beneath the skin and covering the upper back of the shoulders and neck. It links to the dorsal vertebrae of the spine, scapulae, clavicles, and ribs.

- But the trapezius doesn't stop there. This large shoulder and upper/mid back muscle has 3 parts, described below. It's just that the upper part is the one most of us are familiar with - because we tend to get pain, limitation and/or trigger points there.

Deltoids The Deltoid Muscles (also known as Deltoids or Delts for short) are a group of triangular muscles which most people would recognize as the shoulder muscles and are located on top of the common shoulder joint for the Scapula, Clavicle and Humerus..The posterior division, also known as the posterior deltoid, is located on the backside of the shoulder joint. The Deltoid Muscles consist of three divisions highlighted in this picture. Typically, there is a combination of these divisions which work together to produce specific movements.

Suboccipital muscles The suboccipital muscles are a group of muscles defined by their location to the occiput.Suboccipital muscles are located below the occipital bone. These are four paired muscles on the underside of the occipital bone; the two straight muscles (rectus) and the two oblique muscles (obliquus). The muscles are named.1  Rectus capitis posterior major goes from the spinous process of the axis (C2) to the occipital bone.2  Rectus capitis posterior minor goes from the middle of the posterior arch of the atlas to the occipit. Rectus capitis posterior major goes from the spinous process of the axis (C2) to the occipital bone. 2  Rectus capitis posterior minor goes from the middle of the posterior arch of the atlas to the occipit. 3  Obliquus capitis superior goes from the transverse process of the atlas to the occiput.

- In human anatomy, the trapezius (/trəˈpiːzi.əs/) is either one of two large superficial muscles that extend longitudinally from the occipital bone to the lower thoracic vertebrae and laterally to the spine of the scapula (shoulder blade). Its functions are to move the scapulae and support the arm.he trapezius muscle resembles a trapezium (trapezoid in American English), or diamond-shaped quadrilateral. The word spinotrapezius refers to the human trapezius, although it is not commonly used in modern texts.

Trapezius muscle The superior or upper (or descending) fibers of the trapezius originates from the spinous processes of C1–C7 and inserts into the external occipital protuberance, the medial third of the superior nuchal line of the occipital bone (both in the back of the head), and the ligamentum nuchae.he trapezius muscle resembles a trapezium (trapezoid in American English), or diamond-shaped quadrilateral.

Splenius The splenius muscle of the head and the splenius muscle of the neck work together so that the neck and the head can extend (tilt backward) and rotate. The splenius muscle of the head, also known as the splenius capitis, is a broad muscle located at the back of the neck. It is attached to the base of the skull. The splenius muscle of the neck, also known as the splenius cervicis, is a smaller muscle that is positioned slightly below the splenius capitis. Damage or injury to either splenius muscle can cause neck pain, headaches, facial pain, or shoulder pain.

Muscles of the Vertebral Column: Support & Movement The spinalis group is most medial of the three, and it includes muscles that originate on vertebrae and insert on more superior vertebrae. The thoracis spinalis belongs to this group of muscles. With contraction, the spinalis muscles extend the neck and the vertebral column-once again, good posture.et's take a look at these muscles. If we peel away the trapezius and the latissimus dorsi muscle that are on the superficial part of the back, we can see the muscles responsible for our posture. The erector spinae is a group of muscles that work together to extend the vertebral column and thus maintain good posture.

Splenius capitis muscle The splenius capitis (/ˈspliːni.əs ˈkaepɨtɨs/) (ˈkæpɨtɨs From greek, splenion spléníon, meaning Bandage and, latin caput) meaning head is, a broad straplike muscle in the back of. the neckhe splenius capitis is deep to sternocleidomastoideus at the mastoid process, and to the trapezius for its lower portion. It is one of the muscles that forms the floor of the posterior triangle of the neck. The splenius capitis muscle is innervated by the posterior ramus of spinal nerves C3 and C4.

Trapezius Muscle The trapezius muscle is a triangular, flat muscle of the shoulder girdle. It is supplied by the accessory nerve (cranial nerve XI) and the cervical plexus (C2-C4). The muscle itself consists of three parts: Descending (or superior) part: runs from the occipital bone and nuchal ligament to the lateral third of the clavicle. Transverse (or middle) part: originates from the spinal processes of the first to fourth thoracic vertebrae and inserts at the acromion.

Learn Muscle Anatomy: Scalene Muscles This is neck flexion, and the anterior scalene acts in it. The other muscles involved include the sternocleidomastoid (it’s in everything!), longus capitis, and longus colli. If you look straight ahead, then turn your head to the side, this is contralateral head rotation.

Trapezius Muscle Pain: End Burning Shoulder Pain with Self-Massage The trapezius is a broad triangular muscle which attaches to the base of the skull, and lies at the back of the neck, over the upper shoulders and extends down your upper back to your mid back. It is one of the most likely muscles to get sore knots or “trigger points”.

Bones & Joints of the Shoulder The coracoid process is a thick curved structure that projects from the scapula and is the attachment point of ligaments and muscles. The scapula is also marked by a shallow, somewhat comma-shaped glenoid cavity, which articulates with the head of the humerus. The top end of the humerus consists of the head, the neck, the greater and lesser tubercles, and the shaft. The head is half-spherical in shape and projects into the glenoid cavity. The neck lies between the head and the greater and lesser tubercles.

Shoulder Muscle Anatomy The Deltoid is a three-headed muscle that caps the shoulder. The three heads of the Deltoid are the Anterior, Lateral, and Posterior. All three Deltoid heads attach to the humerus.The Anterior and Lateral heads originate on the collar bone, while the Posterior head originates on the scapula.he three heads of the Deltoid are the Anterior, Lateral, and Posterior. All three Deltoid heads attach to the humerus.
