The name âCrew neckâ comes from the word crew as they were the types of shirts worn by oarsmen on a boat. The Crew neck features a round neck which is designed to sit around the base of the wearerâs neck, usually following the line of the collarbone.
The cervical spine (the neck) has seven vertebral bodies, also called segments. The top two segments are unique: The first cervical segment (called the atlas) is a ring that does not have a vertebral body. This vertebra is named C1. The second vertebral body (called the axis), acts as a post that the first vertebral ring. Like the rest of the spine, the next five vertebral segments (named C3-C7) have three joints at each segment, including one disc in the front and paired facet joints in the back.
