I hope its the right place to right ! if not im sure that of the moderators will move this thread from here ! but i choose to put it here coz i want it to get to as much ppl as possible.
anyway ......what is Carpal tunnel syndrome? and what it have to do with trance ?!!!
its directly related to the people who creat music and sit alot of hours infront of the pc.....
im sure that everyone who is crazy about trance and music sits for hours and hours on the pc and he wont even feel it ! i know that simply from myself - i can sit infront of the screen for days and i dont wanna go out of the house coz im into my track....
anyway.....alil bit medical point of view about it :
The carpal tunnel is a narrow passageway of bone and ligament in your wrist. The median nerve, which controls sensation in the fingers and movement in some of the muscles in the hand, passes through this tunnel along with some of the finger tendons. Repeated hand or wrist movement can put stress on the tendons, causing them to swell and press on the median nerve. Such pressure causes pain and numbness, and it impairs movement in the hand and fingers. Anything that causes tissues in the carpal tunnel to swell.
so technecaly sitting infront of the pc for hours,trying to put some filters,EQ`s,creat a bass line and so on and so on.......simply making music....can sielently damage your hands!
so to prevent CTS u should Take frequent breaks (five minutes each hour) from your trip into your new piece of trance art and do some repetitive hand motions to stretch your fingers and thumb, do wrist curls and circles, change your grip.
to be hounest alot of people who will read this will laugh about me coz its a strange topic to post since all the other ones mostly deal with trance as an issue....
but i hope you guys can have a deeper look to this,coz maybe its funny but its a fact !

not perhaps a trance thread but a could Topic, and i guess not many ppl think of it.
Many ppl sit 12hrs infront of computer but dont think of it.
I have a computer related jobb and i got to say that i spend more than 12hrs infront of th ecomputer someday but dont think about it, 8hrs at work and sometimes 4-5hrs when i get home.
So i get you point!
Cheers

i have it since i was 20 years old and i didnt get it by sitting in front of a computer but it harrited it from my mother !
the reason it poped out in my 20s was of the work i was doing needed lots of repetitive wrist action and that poped the problem out!
i lost many sleeping hours cause of the huge pain iand num i had in my hand!
suddly this want get better soon and only cure is taking long rest to your wrists!

lol
anyway.. indeed this is not relative to trance but to the frequently and heavy use of the wrist (either from computer relative job or not). I have also some problems from time to time with my wrists.. terrible pains some times up to the point of not being able to use my hand to stand up for example. Since '93 i sit infront of computer for houuurss (for music or not) and now cause my daily job is computer relative even more as dopamin said some times i reach 12-15 hours on a pc. It needs attention but what u can do! stop working or making music? I ll sure check the exercises keyop said.. hope that will help!
cheers

Fuck my wrists (even though reading this made them scream; save us! saaave us!). I've been working as a seller for years now, and it's on the phone. My back is soon to kill me. Sitting 8 ++ hours a day infront of a computer. My god. I have a VERY unhealthy job. hmm, better stand up for a while and move my legs around. |

if you have a good position then your wrist won't be under too much stress... If you have a bad position at the computer you will get all kinds of physical problems... If you can't put yer feet on the floor while sitting you will get knee problems, if your screen stands too high or too low you will get neck problems, if your table isn't high or low enough you will have to bend your wrists in an unnatural way that puts stress on it and you will get wrist problems... In fact, the ideal position at a computer keyboard is very similar to the correct position at a piano. |
