The pain related to the overuse of muscles is a common problem in the musicians (Steinmetz, Möller, Seidal e
Rigotti 2012). This, which can vary from a mild discomfort, and passenger discomfort prolonged and very painful, it is an experience sensory and emotional that normally associates with an injury.
In an article on this subject, published in 2014, it is stated that “the static weight, repetitive movements, excessive muscle activation , as well as the body posture extreme, they are imposed to the body, causing damage, early in the childhood” (Nawrocka, Mynarski, Powerska, Grabara, Groffik e Borek 2014, 29).
All these damage can lead to chronic pain, and the musicians in these conditions are more likely to achieve high levels of anxiety and panic, those musicians who do not suffer from pain (Zamorano, Riquelme, Kleber, Altenmüller, Hatem e Montoya 2015). Also the years of the occupation, the frequency of the music practice and the study time are the factors that contribute to the increase of complaints of pain in musicians.
In order to realize which are the main complaints of the muscle-skeletal forum, presented by musicians, the objective of this chapter focuses on the identification of the most affected areas of the human body related to the instrumental practise, as well as the causes of the pain that it occurs of them.
