Cramps, heaving or tingling
In your arms?
You know your technique, but your body sends warning signals. Beyond tendinitis, it is often a hyperexcitability of the nervous system.

They occur early, sometimes without intense effort. It's a sign of an "asphyxiated" muscle or a local electrolytic disturbance.
Paraesthesia
Flushing in the fingertips, feeling heavy or numb. The nerve is irritated on its route (cervical or peripheral).
Irradiations
The pain is not fixed. She "travels" from neck to hand. It's not a local injury, it's a functional neuralgia.
Beyond the Arm: The Role of Breathing
Why are your symptoms coming back despite rest?
In the musician, the intensity of the game often results in unconscious hyperventilation. This mechanism modifies your blood chemistry (loss of CO2) and activates your neck accessory muscles (scalenes).
Result: The nerves of the brachial plexus are compressed at the base of the neck, and the threshold of excitability of your nerves decreases. Your arm isn't "cracked," it's in neurodynamic alert.
The Physiological Cascade
- Hyperventilation: Breathing high and fast.
- Chemistry: Lower CO2 = Alkaline blood.
- Mechanical: Cervical tension (Scalenes).
- Symptoms: Cramps, tingling.
A tailored care strategy
No generic protocol. Your treatment is dictated by Initial Review. We adapt the cursor between manual and active therapy according to your real needs.
"Liabilities" Care
Necessary when acute pain or restricted mobility.
- Tissue release: Relaxation of neck and shoulder muscles.
- Neurodynamics: Mild mobilization of nerves to calm the tingling.
- Manual therapy: Lifting joint blockages that hinder the gesture.
Active Care
Essential to stabilize earnings and avoid recidivism.
- Specific strengthening: Stabilization of the shoulder blade and back.
- Work of the gesture: Postural correction with the instrument in hand.
- Breathing: Diaphragm re-education to manage stage stress.
