Violin-playing aid helps music meet medicine
Rehab Regs, May 6, 2004
Finger Finesse, a hand position strengthener designed to improve violin playing for musicians, has drawn the attention of physical therapists. Created by the Crane Classical Music Society in Atlanta, GA, the tool is being used not only to assist in string players' dexterity and finger independence, but also by individuals who need to rebuild fine motor skills in their hands. Users include those suffering from Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, stroke and Parkinson's disease patients and others dealing with various neurological challenges.
