The cervical rhomboideus muscle in horses primarily functions to elevate and retract the scapula, assisting in the movement of the forelimb. It also plays a role in stabilizing the shoulder region during various activities, such as riding or running. Additionally, this muscle contributes to the overall posture and flexibility of the neck and upper back. Its proper function is essential for efficient locomotion and performance in equestrian activities.

No, the rhomboideus minor is superior to the rhomboideus major
Latissimus dorsi, Trapezius, the 2 Rhomboideus
What is loss of the normal cervical lordosis consistent with muscle spasm?
The rhomboid major is a skeletal muscle on the back that connects the scapula (shoulder blade) with the vertebrae of the spinal column.Hope this helps :)
Posterioly there are the Rhomboideus major and minor and levator scapula. While anteriorly is the upper three digitations of serratus anterior.
They have seven. A horse has 7 cervical vertebrae (neck) as do nearly all mammals, 18 thoracic vertebrae (along the longest part of the horse's back), 6 lumbar vertebrae (the general area above the horse's hips), and 5 sacral vertebrae (towards the tail (dock) area).
a combined contraction of the levator scapulae, rhomboid major and minor muscles and the latissimus dorsi muscle.I would narrow this answer down to the Rhomboid Muscles-Luceinrhomboids
The serratus anterior muscle protracts and depresses the scapula. It originates on the upper ribs and inserts along the medial border of the scapula. This muscle is important for stabilizing the scapula during movements like pushing and reaching overhead.
The cervical cancer injection does not go in the cervix! It is typically given in the muscle of the upper arm, as with other immunizations.
yes, if you go to www.ArabianHorses.org, there should be a picture of a horse skeleton. The scapula is located at the base of the cervical vertebrae
Some potential causes of cervical pain include whiplash, arthritis, muscle strain, and a herniated disc. If you experience prolonged cervical pain it is recommended that you contact a medical professional.
