Practical hydropathy, including plans of baths and remarks on diet, clothing and habits of . , in mclining thehead backwards, among which there appear in the figure the trapezius (20)and the splenius (28). Seven pair are engaged in inclining the head sidewards,several of which are also those—such as 1(J and 20—which incline the headbackwards. (Lard?ier.)—The principal anterior muscles of the trunk and shoulders are shownin Fig. 56, those on the left being superficial, and those on the right the deeperlayer covered by the former. In proportion to the surface over which they arespread, these muscles are much less numerous than those of the back, a circum-stance which naturally arises from the fact already indicated, that the weight ofthe trunk, being chiefly in front of the spine, is altogether supported and, forthe most part, moved by the posterior muscles. In Rg. 54 the superficial muscles of the back, including the neck, haunch, are shown on the left side of the spine; and those of the secondlayer, disclosed by the removal of the former, on the right Fisr. 5i.—Zardner, 390 HANDBOOK OF HYDROPATHY.
