Training the Whole Body for Correct Instrumental Technique

By Dr John Maloney

The ultimate goal of this book is to help musicians extend their careers, enhance their performance, and improve their overall physical well-being through focused strength training.

Dr. John Maloney is a chiropractic physician practicing in Westchester, NY, with eight years of experience specializing in diagnosing, treating, and preventing muscular, skeletal, and neurological injuries. For the past four to five years, he has collaborated with Elizabeth Tufankjian on developing a method to help musicians train, optimize their performance, and prevent injuries. Their work focuses on addressing the physical demands musicians face due to long hours of practice and performance.

Through their research, they discovered a significant lack of information on training the whole body for correct instrumental technique. Musicians often lack knowledge on how to strengthen and train their bodies to handle the physical strain of their craft, as well as how to prevent injuries. To address this, Dr. Maloney and Mrs. Tufankjian have been developing a structured approach to identify and correct areas of weakness, tension, or discomfort.
