Neck Pain (Levator Scapulae Muscle) Mobilization

Показать описание
Today’s video shows how to mobilize the levator scapulae muscle, which often helps reduce neck and shoulder blade region pain.

The strap-like levator scapulae muscle runs from the transverse processes of cervical (neck) vertebrae (C1-4) to the superomedial angle of the scapula (shoulder blade).

The levator scapulae muscle has the ability to move both the shoulder blade and the neck. In terms of the shoulder blade, this muscle can create both scapular elevation (think shrugging your shoulders) and downward rotation. When the shoulder blade is fixed, the levator scapulae muscle creates ipsilateral (same side) side bend (ear to shoulder) of the neck.

When the levator muscle has been strained or is irritated, it has the ability to create both neck and shoulder region pain and limit neck and shoulder mobility.

In order to find the muscle, find the top corner of the shoulder blade and move back and forth until you find the rope-like levator scapulae. From there, trace the muscle up the lateral neck to where it attaches on the cervical vertebrae.
