Abby Halpin, DPT

Abby Halpin, the physical therapist who wishes she was a music teacher fills you in on her own piano journey in honor of World Piano Day, asks Florence + The Machine for some much needed assistance, and walks you  through why your hands might be falling asleep while you play.

Main Takeaways:
1. You have to learn things  to be proficient at them.
2. The main resistance to doing anything is the getting started part.
3. Nerves can get compressed, pulled on, or over-sensitized at any point along their pathway. 
4. The location of your tingling, prickly, numb symptoms help your PT know what to do next. 
5. Go see someone for this symptom - you don't have to live like this.
