Avoid Computer Injuries - Use your body at the computer pain-free!

We teach fun, hands-on ergonomics workshops on prevention of eyestrain and repetitive strain injuries (like tendonitis or carpal tunnel syndrome). Benefits:

• Optimize your workstation setup without spending a fortune
• Prevent eyestrain (including self-massage and eyesight acupressure points)
• Relieve muscle strain before it causes injury

As a workshop participant, you'll learn:

• Good postural habits and more efficient body usage
• Safe hand and wrist techniques for both keyboard and mouse
• How to "drive" your chair (what are all those levers for anyway?)
• Gentle movement exercises and stretches that prevent RSI and back pain

We offer ergonomic injury-prevention workshops to community service organizations, non-profits, religious groups, professional organizations, and others who value health and vitality. Past workshop hosts include:
