the rhomboids are deep to the __ muscle and superficial to the __ muscles.
trapezius - erector spinae
can you name two actions in which the rhomboids and trapezius are synergists and one action in which they are antagonists
adduct the scapula - elevate the scapula - rotation of the scapula
the levator scapula is situated between which two muscles on the lateral side of the neck
splenius capitis - posterior scalene
an action to ask your partner to perform to feel the levator scapula contract is
elevation of the scapula
when accessing the levator scapula in a supine position, the benefits of rotating the head 45 degrees away from the side you are palpating include:
shifts the cervical transverse process further anterior - gives the levator more paplable tensions - shortens and softens overlying trapezius
the serratus anterior abducts the scapula, making it a direct antagonist to the
rhomboids
most of the serratus anterior is deep to the scapula and which two muscles
latissimus dorsi - pectoralis major
accessing the medial portion of the serratus anterior by curling your fingers around the medial border of the scapula, your fingers will inherently have to work through the bellies of which two muscles?
trapezius - rhomboids
the pectoralis major is divided into three segments:
clavicular - sternal - costal
can you name an everyday action in which you use your pectoralis major?
push-ups
the most important aspect when palpating near breast tissue is:
communication
if you follow the fibers of the pectoralis major laterally, they blend with the fibers of which muscle?
deltoid
flexing the shoulder and pulling it anteriorly where you palpate the pectoralis major in a sideling position has which two benefits?
brings the pectoralis major off the chest wall - allows the breast tissue to fall away
the pectoralis minor has the potential to create neurovascular compression on which three vessels?
brachial plexus - axillary artery - vein
Origin of Levator scapula
transverse processes of first through fourth cervical vertebrae
Insertion of Levator scapula
upper region of medial border and superior angle of the scapula
Origin of Pectoralis Major
medial half of clavicle, sternum and cartilage of first through sixth ribs
Insertion of Pectoralis Major
crest of the greater tubercle of the humerus
Origin of Pectoralis Minor
third fourth and fifth ribs
Insertion of Pectoralis Minor
coracoid process of the scapula
Origin of Rhomboid Major
spinous processes of T-2 to T-5
Insertion of Rhomboid Major
medial border of the scapula between spine of scapula and inferior angle
Origin of Rhomboid Minor
spinous processes of C-7 and T-1
Insertion of Rhomboid Minor
upper portion of medial border of the scapula, across from the spine of the scapula
Origin of Serratus anterior
surfaces of upper eight or nine ribs
Insertion of Serratus anterior
anterior surface of medial border of the scapula
Origin of Subclavius
first rib and cartilage
Insertion of Subclavius
inferior, lateral aspect of clavicle
