Do Harpists fall into the Guitar Tendonitis category?

by Matthew

I'm a harpist and my forearms have a lot of pain and swelling.

Would your guitar suggestions help us too?

Would it be similar in symptoms?

Hello Matthew.

In short, the answer to your question is 'yes'.

Fleshing that out a bit....

Ultimately, the symptoms are the same: tightness of muscle, constriction of connective tissue, pain enhancing chemical from the Process of Inflammation, and a freaked out nervous system.

Plus likely nutritional insufficiency/deficiency, and various other factors.

It's the Pain Causing Dynamic of the Tendonitis dynamic.

So yes, the Reversing Guitar Tendonitis ebook would work just fine for a harpist, pianist, and similar hand intensive musical categories.

Different musicians may have instrument specific issue of posture and back/shoulder tightness etc, but that's easy to answer with an email after the forearms get dealt with.

More questions, more answers.
