This is  Don Wigent at East Carolina U and I have found that If you try
not to hold  the keys down so hard while you are tuning it reduces the
tention.

A technique Virgil Smith taught me a long time ago was to stroke the key as  
if the key bottoms out at the top of the key, instead of at the end of the key 
 dip, and let momentum take it down to the bottom. That reduces the pounding 
on  the finger joints.
