Easy Back Stretch Technique for Trapezius Muscle Pain Relief: Yoga Tune Up®

Learn to relieve tension in your neck, shoulders & back muscles with this simple yoga technique. This is a great stretching exercise to do after a trapezius workout, after a long bike ride, or during a long period of sitting at a desk in front of a computer. The trapezius is the large stingray shaped muscle between your shoulder blades.Trigger points in the trapezius can lead to headaches and all kinds of neck pain and back pain. Jill shows us how to squeeze the shoulder blades together in sequence to free up the blood flow in the back muscles.

What a great trick! My shoulders and neck are always so tense. This is so easy to do and it works. This is a different type of yoga from what I've seen.
