Understanding Trapezitis
Trapezitis is the inflammation of the trapezius muscle, one of the largest and most important muscles in the upper back and neck
What is Trapezitis?
The trapezius muscle is a large, triangular muscle that extends from the base of the skull to the mid-back and out to the shoulder blades. Trapezitis occurs when this muscle becomes inflamed, strained, or develops trigger points due to overuse, poor posture, or stress.
- Upper Trapezius Strain - Affects the neck and shoulder area, commonly causing tension headaches and neck stiffness
- Middle Trapezius Involvement - Causes pain between shoulder blades and upper back discomfort
- Lower Trapezius Issues - Leads to mid-back pain and postural problems
- Postural Stress - Prolonged sitting, computer work, and forward head posture strain the trapezius
- Emotional Tension - Stress and anxiety cause involuntary trapezius muscle contraction and spasm
- Acute Injury - Sudden movements, heavy lifting, or whiplash can traumatize the trapezius muscle
Trapezitis is often mistaken for other conditions, but proper diagnosis and targeted treatment can provide rapid relief.
Recognizing Trapezitis Symptoms
Trapezitis presents with distinctive symptoms that affect daily activities and quality of life
Upper Back & Neck Pain
Dull, aching pain or sharp, burning sensation in the upper trapezius area, often worse with movement or prolonged sitting.
Tension Headaches
Headaches originating from the base of the skull, radiating to temples and behind eyes due to muscle tension.
Shoulder Stiffness
Difficulty moving shoulders, especially when reaching overhead or behind back. Feeling of tightness and restricted motion.
Trigger Points & Knots
Palpable hard knots in the trapezius muscle that are tender to touch and may refer pain to other areas.
Our Trapezitis Treatment Approach
Comprehensive care to relieve inflammation, release muscle tension, and prevent recurrence
Comprehensive Muscle Assessment
Muscle Palpation
Detailed examination to identify trigger points, muscle tension, and specific areas of inflammation in the trapezius.
Postural Analysis
Assessment of sitting and standing posture to identify contributing factors like forward head posture and rounded shoulders.
Functional Movement Testing
Evaluation of neck and shoulder range of motion to identify movement restrictions caused by trapezius tension.
Our Targeted Treatment Methods
Trigger Point Therapy
Specific pressure techniques to release hyperirritable spots in the trapezius that cause referred pain and tension.
Myofascial Release
Gentle sustained pressure to release tension in the connective tissue surrounding the trapezius muscle.
Dry Needling
Precise needling technique to deactivate trigger points and promote healing in the trapezius muscle.
Therapeutic Stretching
Specific stretches to improve trapezius flexibility and reduce muscle tension that contributes to pain.
Ergonomic Correction
Workstation assessment and modifications to reduce strain on the trapezius during daily activities.
Stress Management
Techniques to reduce emotional tension that contributes to trapezius muscle contraction and pain.
Patient Success Story
Real results from our trapezitis treatment
"As a software developer, I spent 10-12 hours daily at my computer and developed severe trapezitis that caused constant neck pain, tension headaches, and shoulder stiffness. I had tried painkillers and massages with only temporary relief. After starting treatment at Spine-X, the difference has been incredible. The combination of targeted trigger point release, dry needling, and postural correction has eliminated my chronic pain. Dr. Zinzala also taught me simple stretches and ergonomic adjustments that I use throughout my workday. I'm now pain-free and can focus on my work without constant discomfort."
