Are you living a musician's worst nightmare?

  • Are you getting pain in and around your elbows or wrists from overuse when you play?
  • Are you avoiding or stopping yourself from practicing, recording or performing because of niggling pain or fear of flaring the issues up?

  • Are you getting numbness and tingling into your hand or fingers?

  •  Are you feeling like your forearms are constantly jacked and tight?

  •  Are you having problems holding or playing with a pick? 

  •  Are you dropping your notes, drumsticks or bow? 

  •  Are you getting a burning sensation around your wrist or thumb?

     

    OK, if you said yes, then I agree, things are probably feeling a bit tough for you right now, but there is hope and I have an easy plan for you!

Do you feel...


Frustrated, in pain and seeing no progress in your practice? 

Stuck and like you don't know where to start?

Stiff and stressed by every movement, stretch and alternate position available?

Anxious and overwhelmed that you have TOO much pain in your arms, hands and fingers to get to the next level in your performing, recording or touring? 

Distracted and left behind by the 'constant noise' of your pain? 

 

If you are still saying yes, then you're definitely in the right place.
Take a deep breath, I got you...

I'm here to tell you that it is completely within your capacity to make the changes that will prevent career-ending injuries.

I'm Kaja Quinn

From Skeletal Harmonics 

Forearm pain plagued me as a sax player, and as a Musculoskeletal Therapist I can say it’s come up for the majority of my musician clients over the last decade and a half, without a doubt. Whether you get just a small niggle, occasional RSI symptoms, or you've been completely taken out of the game, you are in the right place. 

I still can’t believe I get to do this as a profession. Every day, helping musicians regain their ability to perform humbles me. I have an internal driving force to help performers not give up just because of an injury. I feel very strongly that the world needs to hear your creations and I want to do all I can to make that happen.

I’ve had the privilege of helping thousands of world class musicians, performing artists and their crew transform their personal and professional lives, on and off stage, across the globe. I have been able to do this via my backstage treatment clinics, with my whole team at music festivals, my private 1 to 1 sessions at my clinics, the venues or at the artists house or hotel, and my whole party touring packages as a live-in therapist.

Branching into the online teaching community excites me and I'm ready to embrace the ability to be able to help you anywhere in the world at any time. And being a people person, I’m so pleased to now be extending my new offers to you via my online course, online coaching package and online 1 to 1 sessions. 

I can’t wait to work with you. Let's get you playing, performing and touring the way you were meant to.
