Trapezius Muscle Location and Trigger Points
The Trapezius is a major source of headache pain, typically the type of pain experienced as a “tension headache.” It can also be a cause of dizziness, jaw, and toothache pain. Tightness felt in the neck and back of the skull often comes from Trigger Points in the Trapezius.
If neck massage does not relieve the sensation of tightness in the neck, Trigger Points in the Trapezius are the most likely culprit.
If a computer user has an aching feeling on the top of the shoulder, they may have what many doctors call "Mouse Shoulder". This is caused by the overuse of the shoulder muscles used to operate the computer mouse. The trapezius is a common muscle that is exposed to this type of over-use, but other muscles are most likely involved as well. People that use their arms for extended periods of time while doing any task that requires holding their arms out in front of them, like driving a car or an assembly line worker, will recognize a burning pain between the shoulder blades.
