My Dystonia Experience

 

My name is Lars. I am a previously very ambitious classical pianist. But some years ago I started to suffer from what is known as Musician’s Hand Dystonia, a neurological condition which prevents me from practicing my art. According to the internet and all official sources there is no cure for this condition. But I am confident that I have found a path which will lead me to recovery.

This blog is about Dystonia, about rehabilitation, about emotional health and all the touching subjects I find meaningful. It serves as a documentation of my process.

 
 

First entries

These three posts served as an information base for my master’s degree presentation at the Norwegian Academy of Music in Oslo. They present Dystonia and an introduction to my path.
