Repetitive Strain?

As musicians, we use our hands constantly, yet very few of us actually take the time to examine how they work. We take the workings of our hands for granted- a mistake! If each of us took even a small amount of our time to actually learn how these structures operate, there would be less cases of carpel tunnel syndrome and tendonitus, virtually no aches and pains during practice, and, by using our hands more efficiently, we have already set ourselves up to be technically better on our instrument.

Thats why I have developed a technique for the guitar that actually takes this into consideration- resulting in faster, more efficient playing, and alot less aches and pains! Sounds great, right? Well, with my technique you can become a guitar master (with, of course, plenty of practice!).

But this technique doesnt just apply to guitar, thats why I’m going to put more information up on my website, to help all musicians!

The full article should be up on my website soon (read it here), along with more technical exercises to take full advantage of this technique. Subscribe to this blog for updates, or find me on twitter http://twitter.com/chainsawmaniak
