Carpal Tunnel and Cubital Tunnel Treatment
What are Carpal, Cubital, and Ulnar Tunnel Syndromes?
Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the median nerve is compressed while traveling through the carpal tunnel, a narrow passageway made of bones and ligaments in the wrist. The carpal tunnel is intended to provide protection for the median nerve and tendons that pass through it. The median nerve is responsible for movement and sensation for parts of the hand, so irritation from compression can cause pain, numbness and tingling in the hand and wrist.

Repetitive Strain Injuries in Musicians
Many musicians have heard of repetitive injuries, but are not really sure what they are, how they are caused, or if they should worry about them or not. Horror stories are heard over and over about musicians whose careers where threatened or ended by such conditions as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendinitis, thoracic outlet syndrome and other conditions. Little is taught though, about these injuries in schools, colleges, or conservatories.
