The Act of Playing an Instrument.

What Wind Instrument Players Should Know About Their Bodies

Do you ever feel pain in your shoulders or lower back
after playing a wind instrument?
Or perhaps your arms and fingers feel tired
after long practice sessions?

These issues can be caused by “errors”
that result from putting
too much strain on your body.

However, opportunities to learn
how to use and care for your body
while playing are often limited.

As a result,many musicians
endure pain and continue practicing
despite the discomfort.

To address this situation,
it is important to understand
how your body works during performance
and to learn the specific characteristics of your instrument,
proper care and attention are essential.

This time, let’s focus on the weight and strain
on the body to explore
how playing wind instruments
affects you physically.
