Dystonia Instrument
Violin
This class has been designed by Dr. Farias to help violin and viola players affected by Musicians’ focal hand dystonia to recover their ability to play their instruments.
This program of exercises includes the exercises for right hand (bow technique) and left hand. No matter if your diagnosis has been right hand or left hand dystonia, we recommend that you practice the exercises suggested for both hands in order to obtain the best results and avoid mirroring of your tension.
