NERVES HEAD, FACE & NECK
Fifth cranial,trifacial, trigeminal nerve • Largest of cranial nerves; chief sensory nerve of the face and motor nerve of muscles that control chewing • Has three branches • Ophthalmic • Mandibular • Maxillary
Fifth cranial nerve affected by massage • Supraorbital nerve • Affects skin of forehead, scalp, eyebrow and upper eyelid • Supra-trochlear nerve • Affects skin between eyes and upper side of nose • Infratrochlear nerve • Affects membrane and skin of nose
Fifth cranial nerve affected by massage • Nasal nerve • Affects the point and lower side of nose • Zygomatic nerve • Affects skin of temple, side of forehead and upper part of cheek • Infraorbital nerve • Affects skin of lower eyelid, side of nose, upper lip & mouth
Fifth cranial nerve affected by massage • Auriculotemporal • Affects external ear & skin above temple, up to top of skull • Mental nerve • Affects skin of lower lip and chin
Seventh Cranial Nerve • Chief motor nerve of face • Emerges near the lower part of ear • Its division and branches supply and control muscles of facial expression and extends to muscles off neck
Seventh Cranial Nerve • Posterior auricular • Affects muscles behind ear at base of skull • Temporal • Affects muscles of temple, side of forehead, eyebrow, eyelid and upper part of cheek • Zygomatic • Upper and lower- affects muscles of upper part of cheek
Seventh Cranial Nerve • Buccal • Affects muscles of mouth • Mandibular • Affects muscles of chin and lower lip • Cervical • Affects side of neck and platysma muscle
Eleventh Cranial (Cervical) Nerves • Originate at the spinal cord, and their branches supply the muscles and scalp at the back of the head and neck
Eleventh Cranial (Cervical) Nerves • Greater occipital • Located at back of head, affects scalp as far up as top of head • Smaller occipital • Located at base of skull, affects scalp and muscles of this region
Eleventh Cranial (Cervical) Nerves • Greater auricular • Located at side of neck, affects external ear, and area in front and back of ear • Cervical cutaneous • Located at side of neck, affects front and side of neck as far down as breastbone
Nerves of arm and hand • Ulnar • With its branches, supplies the little finger side of arm and palm of hand • Radial • With its branches, supplies thumb side of arm and back of hand
Nerves the of arm and hand • Median • Smaller nerve than ulnar and radial nerves • With its branches, supplies arm and hand • Digital • With its branches, supplies all fingers of the hand
