Dr. Randall Kertz has a new book available that you should check out. Randy is a great bass player and long-time friend who is a Chiropractic Physician and Acupuncturist. He did a presentation at Bass@TheBeach this year.
Written by a bass player for bass players, The Bassist's Guide to Injury Management, Prevention and Better Health is designed to point out common and not so common problems that the musician may encounter during practice or performing situations. The injuries and conditions themselves are explained along with their prevention and treatment options. An easy to use symptom reference guide allows the reader to quickly look up the area of injury and find its source. A chapter of pro-tips offers advice and exercises from some of the top bassists including David Ellefson, Putter Smith, Victor Wooten, and little ol' me.
This is the ONLY book of its kind and it's GREAT.
