Recognizing the increased risk of injury musicians face because of the repetitive movements their profession can require, this guide for pain prevention argues that the surest method of avoiding injury is to teach appropriate posture and instrument position from the earliest lessons and to avoid subsequent changes to the ideal posture. It prompts readers to consider their body position with and without the instrument and offers a number of techniques for correcting a body position that may be out of alignment, including techniques for specific instruments. It also discusses how breathing can play an integral role in ameliorating the situation and discusses postural hygiene. This manual is a holistic approach to better health and a vital resource for all musicians.
