In this video I talk about spasmodic torticollis aka wry neck and the two main muscles affected. Those muscles are the sternocleidomastoid and trapezius.
When either of those two muscles involuntarily contract, they can move the head in several directions. To relieve the spasms you must do 3 things:
1. Place heat in the affected area to increase circulation to the muscle 2. Massage the muscles to relieve tension 3. Stretch the muscles in the opposite direction of contraction
