Massage Tutorial: the Trapezius (deep tissue, anatomy review)
My new book is out! It's called Massage Is Weird: https://massagesloth.com/book/
Trapezius is more than just the bunch of muscle on top of the shoulders! This video is about the broad structure of the trapezius, along with its broad implications for headache and shoulder pain. We review the anatomy, do some palpation on a client, and then go through a lengthy demo. Inferior, middle, and superior trapezius are discussed, along with some strategies for supine work.
0:00 Introduction
0:20 Anatomy and kinesiology review
1:53 Pain and referral patterns
2:40 Anatomy review with client
3:45 Massage technique demo (bilateral warm-up)
5:25 Unilateral massage techniques
8:00 Palpating the inferior trapezius
11:15 Unfurling superior trapezius
13:00 Thoroughly working upper traps
15:00 Likely sites of trigger points
17:15 Supine trapezius work
19:35 Unilateral supine trapezius work
Let me know what you think! Do you have any strategies or specific techniques to offer? Did I forget anything? Let me know in the comments!
