An upper trapezius stretch (or upper trap stretch) will help loosen tight muscles and relieve pain in your neck, shoulders, and upper back. Watch more Ask Doctor Jo videos featuring full routines for common injuries and syndromes at http://www.askdoctorjo.com

To perform an upper trapezius stretch:

1. Sitting in a chair, place your hand of the side you want to stretch underneath your thigh so you are sitting on it. You can also place it behind your back.
2. Take your other hand over your head and place it on the side you want to stretch. Gently pull towards the other side until you feel a stretch, and hold.
