Trapezius Slimming
Reducing activity and bulk in the upper trapezius
The upper trapezius muscles run from the neck across the shoulders and upper back. In some people, these muscles are relatively active or prominent, creating a broader contour between the neck and shoulders.
Procedure
Benefits & results
Helps reduce excessive activity in the upper trapezius muscles
May reduce the bulk of the upper trapezius muscles over time
Can soften the contour between the neck and shoulders
May also reduce tension or discomfort when muscle overactivity contributes
Tailored to the individual's anatomy, muscle activity and treatment goals
Treatment can reduce activity in the upper trapezius muscles. Over time, the muscle bulk may also decrease, which can soften the contour between the neck and shoulders. If excessive trapezius activity also contributes to tension or discomfort, some people may experience a functional benefit as well.
