Playing a instrument often requires dedication and practice. This can mean that a musician will spend a considerable amount of time in an awkward position performing a number of repetitive finger and wrist movements. This can lead to the development of repetitive strain injuries such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis and tennis or golfers elbow. Preventing a repetitive injury is definitely better than cure. Maintaining a neutral wrist position and avoiding twisting and bending movements is the optimum way to prevent the development of a repetitive strain injury.The key points to remember when trying to prevent a repetitive strain injury are:

• Keep the wrist and forearm in a neutral position.
• Take regular breaks from an activity.
• Modify a task to avoid repetition.
  
• Naturally maintaining a healthy diet helps too!
