[Dixielandjazz] Trombone Focal Dystonia

[Fred Spencer]

Dear Luis,
Perfect, focal is focussed and has to be localised. I would caution anyone 
about being too reliant upon focal dystonia publications. Many medical 
organisations begin when a few interested doctors form an association and 
start having conventions and publishing a journal. This is a convenient way 
to deal with the publish or perish syndrome, and there is an enormous amount 
of material published, without any statistical validity, in the few thousand 
scientific journals that now exist--especially when financed by 
pharmaceutical companies!
Incidentally, there is a Performng Arts Medical Association,USA, which is 
mainly concerned with musicians. Cheers.
Fred
