I'm going to have to try that. I have RA and between sewing and the 90+ minutes I practice piano everyday, sometimes I am in agony. I find that if I limit my stress and eat well then I do a lot better with my joints. I also use heated hand mitts you can buy from beauty supply companies. I use them after I play everyday. The discomfort isn't as bad.
