As someone who has lived three times incredibly painful tendinitis and my left arm and right arm, I thought it important for some information that helped me to happen in the past.
It 'important to understand that the piano can cause serious injuries such as carpel tunnel syndrome and tendinitis. Both diseases are known as CSR. The ups and downs, the lateral movement of the arms and fingers whenPlaying the piano for a long time, is what causes these injuries.
This is common in pianists. It is so widespread that a special clinic in Hamilton, Ontario, said the musician Clinics of Canada, dedicated to the prevention and rehabilitation of injuries musicians. Of course, their patients, other instruments such as violin and guitar, but injuries are the pianist certainly the most common.
What can be done when a pianist gets hisTendonitis or carpel tunnel syndrome? Well, certainly there are conventional methods of dealing with inflammation and pain. Unfortunately, these types of treatments such as anti-inflammatories, analgesics and physical therapy are designed to treat symptoms. Therefore, after which the pianist goes back to the piano, without completely healed lesions may occur again, and finally rather difficult to eliminate.
It is not unusual to attack tendinitisaround for very long periods of time. In my case, I once had a problem with my right arm, which lasted almost three years to improve. The problem is, of course, that as a professional I can not stop playing the piano. I can during breaks between shows, but I usually only until the month of peace in a time to take one too.
So how can these lesions healed, while still playing next? It 'important to understand that not all cases is the same, but in reality for me, I hadre-learn to play the piano properly. I realized after visiting a clinic musician I had the completely wrong approach to the piano to play. In particular, I was too close to the keyboard, I had the wrong position of the wrist, fingers the wrong place, and I did not understand the concept of leverage.
Leverage means using the body to create the entire volume on the piano. I tried to create and keep the volume through the strengthening of the keys, rather than by force of the lower legusing the whole body. So my arm trying to muscles and joints of the tribe, according to play immediately. What I finally realized with the help of the musician's medical clinic was that I created with the speed necessary to force the opposition. Once the key reaches the bottom of the natural movement that can not go further. However, I tried to force the note to be passed over without realizing it.
The right way is to write down speed drive more with his backShoulders, biceps, forearms, wrists and fingers and then when the press release reaches its lowest point. Therefore, the speed of the hammer strikes the string, the band creates. Knowing when to leave is very important in the fight to prevent accidents.
Relationship with the movement of the rear bench in piano, I had to learn to be better with an upright posture and use to generate my entire body. It 's easier to go after this with the right foot (pedal), front andthe left foot under the bench. Then, as you pivot back and forth on the bench you have more balance and leverage.
As soon as the last point I would point out, the practice is very important. I started weight training a few years ago, because I find that much more muscle helps prevent injuries. But do consult a professional when you start strength training. Just the right way to be to their advantage.
