    Casual anatomy, traps, trapezius

    Discussion in 'Research' started by H. Antler, Nov 19, 2019.

    Is there a less fitness/anatomy term for traps the triangular upper back/neck muscles? I have a scene where a person is being washed and I a running out of terms.

    Thanks.

    Feel free to delete this. I guess research is more appropriate section.

    Who’s doing the washing? What’s wrong with just shoulders and neck?

    Neck and shoulders are fine. But it is an erotic scene and need to linger a bit. Would like to communicate specifically enough but without sounding like an anatomy book.

    Feeling alliterative. Hmmm,
    Ahh for the kneading, with oiled thumbs, of those muscles that rest, in need of rest, alongside, and one at a lingering time over, the knolly bumps of the backbone. Up, up they slide, deft digits of de-tension, on their soothing path. A path past taut tops of shoulders to tenderly press the nape of aching neck.

    Personally, I like physiology more. Give your character ADHD so you can legally prescribe him meth.
