First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study looks at how the shoulder blade moves and muscles work in violin and viola players who have neck pain compared to those who don't. Researchers will measure muscle activity and shoulder position while players lift their arms and perform musical tasks. The goal is to find patterns that can help design better training and rehab programs to reduce playing-related injuries.
