It is critical to evaluate the proper set up of your work environment because it is often the cause of most stress injuries, such as carpal tunnel in your wrist.

Because many people spend almost half of all of their waking hours sitting at a desk, it is important that your chair, desk and other equipment help your body maintain good posture and alignment. A healthy work station involves being aware of your seating, keyboard and mouse, computer monitor position and glare, telephone position, feet position, lighting and proper positioning of your work. It is critical to evaluate the proper set up of your work environment because it is often the cause of most repetitive stress injuries.

Things like improper chair position, cradling the phone between your ear and shoulder, or straining your neck to look at your computer monitor is not a big deal every once in a while, but when you do the same repetitive motions for several hours a day, several days a week, several weeks a month and so on, you will find that your body eventually has to give and in many cases will suffer pain, discomfort, poor posture and spinal disc damage. Unfortunately, most people don't correlate these problems to their day-to-day activity because they think it has to be caused by a specific traumatic event. That's just not the case. Check out these articles on what you need to know about proper set up of your work environment.

  • Keyboard & Mouse Pads

    Many computer keyboards now include wrist pads as standard accessories.

  • Lumbar Support
    Category: Health & Wellness, Wellness Essentials, At Work

    A support for your low back is essential to have in the chairs in which you will spend most of your time. Most furniture companies do not manufacture chairs that are actually healthy for you. Often they are hard rather than offering a cushioned seat, and the position of your spine is often very poor

  • Monitor Arm
    Category: Health & Wellness, Wellness Essentials, At Work

    First it was great when computer monitors went from taking up so much desk space to the new flat panels but they are still on the desk taking up space and don't have too many ways to adjust their position to best fit a person's work station. Humanscale, a leader in ergonomic office furniture, offers

Testimonio

  • "Vine a Salud Quiropráctica referido por el Sr. Rosado. Había visitado muchos médicos que lo único que me recetaban eran pastillas para el dolor. No tenía calidad de vida. Ni podía hacer actividad alguna sin experimentar dolor insoportable en el cuello. Empecé el tratamiento con la Dra. Delerme en junio 20, 2013. Puedo asegurar que mi vida ha vuelto a tener la calidad de antes. Puedo jugar con mis hijas sin ese dolor horrible de cuello. En esta clínica me siento cómodo y en buena compañ"
