Sponsor's own description
Shoulder protraction is the forward tilt of the head with hyperextension of the cervical spine and is associated with lengthening of the sternocleidomastoid and scalene muscles. With the lengthening of the flexor muscles, the weakened and shortened trapezius, levator scapula, and serratus anterior muscles lead to extra flexor torque and sustained contraction.
