When a musician finds relief from persistent hand pain, it can change what a career in music feels like day to day, and the accounts below show what that looked like for three performers.
“I have tried the old wrist brace, plus resting my hands and wrists forever with no success. After wearing the Carpal Solution for three nights, the complete numbness that I have had in both hands (especially at night) completely disappeared.
In addition, my aching, almost non-functioning wrists felt like new ones. I am sending all of my friends to the local pharmacy!”
Ceil, Pianist / Organist, and carpal tunnel syndrome sufferer for 6 long years.
As a guitarist I get so much satisfaction from playing and performing music. But my hands take a beating daily. I have struggled with different exercise regimens and splints to avoid Carpal Tunnel surgery. As an artist, I will not have anyone cutting on my hands. The carpal tunnel splints are so restrictive and don’t seem to help.
I was getting desperate the last six months on a concert tour and found the Carpal Solution on line. It worked so quickly, I began to take it for granted that I had my hands back and stopped in the middle of the Six Week protocol. The symptoms came rushing back so quickly, I got back to the disciplined six week program. Now I find that I only need the Carpal Solution once a week or sometimes after a big concert program.
It is so great to have a therapy that works and keeps me playing reliably.
I recommend the Carpal Solution without reservation.
Roberto – Classical Guitar Instrumentalist – Performer and Song Writer – California
I play the flute in a classical music group and am passionate about it. After a particular heavy series of practice sessions preparing for a concert I found my hands and wrists were aching and woke me up at night on a routine basis with numb hands. It was so disconcerting to think that my hand condition might keep me from playing. I began searching and talking with friends about what they do. A friend recommended the Carpal Solution. It seemed too good to be true, but I trusted my friend and purchased the Six Week Therapy Pac. Within a week I was back to regular practice without pain and numbness. My natural strength and dexterity returned. I was able to sleep without interruption. The Carpal Solution is Marvelous!

What Happens When a Musician Finds Relief From Hand Pain
The three accounts on this page come from a pianist and organist, a classical guitarist and a flutist, and they share a pattern: each had tried something else first. Ceil, a pianist and organist who had lived with carpal tunnel syndrome for six years, tried a wrist brace and resting her hands without success. Roberto, a classical guitarist, struggled with different exercise regimens and splints that he found restrictive. Jean S. played the flute and found her hands aching after heavy practice sessions before a concert.
What Each Musician Reported
Ceil says the complete numbness in both hands, especially at night, disappeared after three nights, and that her wrists felt like new ones. Roberto says the therapy worked so quickly that he stopped in the middle of the Six Week protocol, only to see his symptoms come rushing back, so he returned to the disciplined program. He now uses it about once a week or after a big concert program. Jean S. says she was back to regular practice without pain or numbness within a week. These are personal accounts, and results may differ from person to person.
The Lesson From Roberto’s Experience
One practical takeaway is that feeling better quickly does not necessarily mean the work is finished. When a musician finds relief quickly, it is tempting to stop early, and Roberto’s account suggests that completing the full program mattered for him. You can read the Six Week Protocol to see how the therapy is organized, and talk with your doctor about the right plan for your hands.
Why Musicians Take Hand Pain Seriously
Musicians rely on fine motor control, and numbness or aching can interrupt practice, rehearsals and performances. Carpal tunnel syndrome can cause numbness, tingling and weakness in the hand, and the NINDS carpal tunnel syndrome fact sheet offers general background on the condition. For a performer, a musician finds relief when the hands feel dependable again, and that can mean the difference between playing on and stepping back.
