Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Musculoskeletal problems that occur in musicians are usually in the form of soft tissue injuries affecting muscles, tendons, nerves and ligaments. These injuries can cause pain, weakness and sensory changes, making it impossible to play the instrument.It is aimed to include 50 adult musicians who meet the inclusion criteria from among the performers in Elazığ Culture and Music Association, Fırat University State Conservatory Department, State Classical Turkish Music choir and musicians who are actively performing instruments within the borders of Elazığ province. Pain, posture, upper extremity function and performance will be evaluated in this study.

Musculoskeletal problems that occur in musicians are usually in the form of soft tissue injuries affecting muscles, tendons, nerves and ligaments. These injuries can cause pain, weakness and sensory changes, making it impossible to play the instrument.It is aimed to include 50 adult musicians who meet the inclusion criteria from among the performers in Elazığ Culture and Music Association, Fırat University State Conservatory Department, State Classical Turkish Music choir and musicians who are actively performing instruments within the borders of Elazığ province. the aim of this study is to investigate the effects of proprioceptive training on upper extremity function and performance in musicians (stringed instrument performers). Upper Extremity Function Assessment, Upper Extremity Performance Assessment, Posture Assessment, Pain Assessment will be evaluated. Proprioceptive training will be applied 3 days a week for 8 weeks. The training will be prepared to increase the stabilization of the muscles in the shoulder, shoulder girdle and back that are active for long periods of time due to performance.
