Posted: Sat Jul 03, 2010 1:55 pm- To take advantage of the space in a computer table is very important, for example: for books use a small bookshelf, or a stackable crate; for jackets use a coat stand and not the chair, or for more free space put the tables I front of each one.
- The table where is the computer has to be orientated towards the windows or towards a good lighting not to tire the sight.
- The desk has to be big and broad, but that one could accede to the keyboard and to the mouse easily. In addition, the space improves the concentration.
- If you like a lot the furniture, pictures and other objects, try to put them at spaces you could not see from the computer because they can distract you.
- The ergonomic furniture’s allow you to adapt the measures to your body to find the ideal position.
- Keep your legs bent at the knees so that the knees are only slightly higher than your hips. Feet should be flat on the floor or on a step stool of some sort.
Exercises:
Neck: To stretch your neck, flex your head forward/backward, side to side and look right and left. This can be done almost anytime to lessen tension and strain. Never roll your head around your neck. This could cause damage to the joints of the neck.
Wrists: Roll your wrists regularly, around every hour or so. Roll the wrists 10 times clockwise, then 10 times counter clockwise.
Arms and Shoulders: A good stretch for your arms and shoulders is to brace your hands on the edge your desk, each about a shoulder width away from your body. Twist your hands in so they point towards your body and lean forwards, hunching your shoulders. Take this a step further and push your shoulders and elbows closer to the desk..
Shoulders: Roll your shoulders forward for around 10 times, then backward. This helps release the tension off your shoulders.
Eyes: Give your eyes a break from focusing on your screen. Every 30 minutes or so, shift your focus from the computer screen and scan around other subjects in the room, such as a window, clock, desk, or door. This helps promote eye movement and lessens chances of eye irritation and headaches. Another technique to relax your eyes would be to rub your hands together, then place your cupped hands over your eyes.
