Relating to both the neck and the shoulder blade (scapula), describing anatomical structures or medical conditions in these areas.
From Latin cervix (neck) and scapula (shoulder blade), a medical term for the region spanning from the cervical spine to the upper back and shoulder.
Physical therapists use 'cervicoscapular' when treating the neck-shoulder connection because these two areas are intimately linked—tight neck muscles pull your shoulders up, and tight shoulders pull your neck forward, creating a feedback loop.
