As a guitarist and recovering TMSer, I have to say this is bull****. This 'article' leaves out the fact that people have been playing stringed instruments for hundreds of years, and forgets to mention the SMALL amount of effort required to play an instrument. I can't believe that a few years ago, before I discovered Sarno, I laid my instrument down for over 2 years, because I was led to believe that the pain in my arm was caused by inflammation that my immune system couldn't shake.

"Medical experts have now determined that novice guitarists are under considerable risk of developing Carpal Tunnel syndrome early on in life by picking up bad guitar playing habits."

I'd like to see a source on that. What is this website here for anyways?

Ugh.

Whenever somebody tells me they can get RSI from playing guitar, I tell them to go watch a video of Steve Howe from YES.

Case closed.
