Terapia de puntos gatillo: elevador de la escápula (estiramiento)
Técnica de compresión isquémica para el elevador de la escápula
Elevador de la escápula
El elevador de la escápula está profundo al ECM y al trapecio. Recibe su nombre por su acción de elevar la escápula. También ayuda a doblar el cuello lateralmente.
Los puntos de activación en el elevador de la escápula típicamente refieren el dolor en un patrón triangular desde la parte superior de la escápula hasta la nuca. En algunos casos, el dolor también se referirá ligeramente al borde medial de la escápula y la parte posterior de la articulación glenohumeral.
