(Redirected from Somatoform disorder). A somatic symptom disorder, formerly known as a somatoform disorder, is a category of mental disorder included in a number of diagnostic schemes of mental illness, including the DSM-5.
Piano uses all 10 fingers, and harp only uses 8. On piano, you have to understand more theory about when to use the black keys than you do on harp, which uses levers or pedals that often donât change through an entire song. Both instruments require you to use two hands to play two sets of notes.
Yet those very components that enable us to play the piano or simply to get dressed also make our hands susceptible to numerous injuries, particularly repetitive strain injuries (RSI). Although not life threatening, these injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, tendonitis and bursitis, can be painful and debilitating.
