Ruth Chiles is a specialist in Focal Dystonia and, as a musician herself, she works particularly with musicians. She's created support groups, hours and hours of video, appeared in many interviews, and written a book, (with another book on the way!) Links to her work are below.

Tune into this episode to hear Jim ramble on incessantly, proving that Ruth is a very patient and gracious listener. Obviously an excellent person to work with!
