How to do the exercise
Trapezius
Stand or sit upright with your shoulders relaxed. Tilt your head calmly to the left, as if bringing your ear to your left shoulder. Place your left hand gently on the right side of your head and add light pressure to increase the stretch. Do not pull hard, the weight of your hand is enough. Hold the stretch.
