Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The sternocleidomastoid muscle is responsible for rotation of the head to the opposite side. Therefore, if a client has decreased right rotation, it is possible that the right sternocleidomastoid muscle is tightened or restricted and may benefit from soft-tissue work. The other muscles listed do not directly contribute to rotation of the neck.
