Where is the Splenius insertion?
The splenius muscles, which include the splenius capitis and splenius cervicis, have distinct insertions. The splenius capitis inserts on the mastoid process of the temporal bone and the lateral third of the superior nuchal line of the occipital bone. The splenius cervicis inserts on the transverse processes of the upper cervical vertebrae, specifically C1 to C3 or C4. These muscles primarily function to extend, rotate, and laterally flex the neck.

What are the neck extensors?
The neck extensors are the group of muscles located on the back of the neck that help to extend (tilt backward) the head and neck. These muscles include the splenius capitis, semispinalis capitis, and the upper portion of the trapezius. Strengthening these muscles can help improve posture and reduce neck pain.
Which muscles do you use to nod?
The sternocleidomastoid muscles are the major muscles that assist you in flexing the neck, along with the longus capitis and a few other small deep muscles of the anterior neck. These flex the neck and head forward or anteriorly. The splenius capitis, semispinalis capitis and longissimus capitis are the major extensor muscles of the neck. These extend the neck upward and backward or posteriorly.
Muscle inserts into the mastoid process?
Posterior Belly of Digastric Muscle (innervated by CN VII) Facial nerve Sternocleidomastoid (innervated by CN XI) Spinal accessory nerve Longissimus Capitis (innervated by dorsal rami of C3-C8 spinal nerves) Splenius Capitis (innervated by dorsal rami of middle cervical spinal nerves)
What muscle allows you to look up?
The splenius capitis muscle allows you to look up. This muscle is located at the back of the neck and helps to extend and rotate the head.
