Resumo
Musicians, like any other professional guild, are victims of occupational diseases, although many of us never or almost never connect music with work. Regardless of the instrument that is played, this occupation imposes a fixed posture and a series of monotonous and repeated movements, which give rise to different injuries and the adoption of incorrect postures that, maintained for a long time, can affect the spine, producing even permanent deformations of this one. Studies conducted on instrumentalist musicians indicate that almost half suffer medical problems related to their activity, some of these problems threaten or end their careers. Most of these conditions could be avoided if, to the students of music, a series of postural and ergonomic norms were inculcated from the beginning of their learning.
