TRAPEZIUS & SHOULDER CONCERNS

YOUR UNDERSTANDING THE TRAPEZIUS MUSCLES AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO THE NECK AND SHOULDERS 

The trapezius is a large muscle extending across the upper back, neck and shoulders. Its size, activity and

appearance vary naturally between individuals and can influence the contours of the neck and shoulder area.

​

WHAT CAN INFLUENCE THE TRAPEZIUS AREA?

The appearance and activity of the trapezius muscles can be influenced by:

• Individual anatomy

• Muscle size and development

• Genetics

• Posture

• Physical activity

• Differences between each side

• Neck and shoulder movement

 

Muscular pain, weakness, restricted movement or other functional symptoms may have an underlying medical or musculoskeletal cause and may require assessment by an appropriate health practitioner.

​

YOUR CONSULTATION

If your concern relates to the appearance of the trapezius and shoulder area, consultation includes assessment of your anatomy, medical history and individual concerns.

​

Where appropriate, available management options can then be discussed, including their limitations, alternatives, potential risks and expected recovery.

​

Not every person will be suitable for a cosmetic procedure in this area.

​

IMPORTANT INFORMATION
