Abstract Objectives: This study aims at assessing the impacts of practicing the accordion on pain and posture of children and adolescent students. Methods: Pain and posture (forward head posture, scapular posture and lumbar lordosis) were compared between two groups of preparatory and secondary school students, matched for age and sex: those who have accordion lessons, hence accordionists (n=16) and those who never have studied a musical instrument, hence non-instrumentalists (n=16). Results: Students having accordion lessons reported significantly more pain in the shoulder, wrist/hand and thoracic regions (p<0.05), showed a significantly more forward head posture (accordionists (median±IQ distance) = 35.6º ± 7.8º, non-instrumentalists (median±IQ distance) = 45.3º±10.8º; p <0.05), and a significantly increased lumbar lordosis (accordionists (median±IQ 14 distance) = 55.5º ± 30.6º, non-musicians (median±IQ distance)= 39.0º ± 3.9º, p <0.05). No significant differences were found for scapular posture between groups. Conclusions: This study suggests that children and adolescents who play the accordion have an increased forward head posture and lumbar lordosis and a tendency to report more pain than children and adolescents who do no play any musical instrument
