Prevention tips !
Stretch Breaks
Stretching, changing positions, getting up and away from the desk can help prevent repetitive injuries. Every hour or as much as you can.

Posture
Natural body positioning is important to preventing injury. Hands, wrists and forearms need to be straight, in-line and parallel to the floor.
The head needs to be level or slightly bent forward and in-line with the torso.
Shoulders are relaxed.
Upper arms hang normally at the side of the body.
Feet are supported by the floor or a foot rest.
The back is fully supported by a lumbar support.
Change your position frequently throughout the day.

Desk and Work Surface
It needs to include enough room for the keyboard and mouse.
Desk height needs to be at elbow height with feet flat on the floor or foot rest.
Avoid glass topped desks due to the glare.
