Small Size - Right Hand Mousing Surface
The Comfort Rest were initially developed to help get injured
individuals back to work. They dramatically reduce the muscle activity
in the neck and shoulders, significantly reducing fatigue, discomfort,
and pain.
- Maximum neck, shoulder and forearm support.
- Reduces upper body muscle activity.
- Promotes neutral arm and wrist position.
- Extends narrow work surfaces.
- Improves posture.
Experts state that keyboarding requires a combination of two kinds of muscle work, static and dynamic.
The neck, shoulders and arms do static work to hold our hands in the
typing position, and the fingers perform dynamic work while
keyboarding. They conclude that static effort is actually more strenuous than dynamic work,
so the arms, neck, shoulders - areas involved in the postural efforts
exerted in simply holding our hands in place - deserve more focus.
To illustrate the point: You would have no problem using your arms
to pick up and put down a five-pound weight repeatedly for a few
minutes. Now, how about holding your arm outstretched with that same
five-pound weight in a single position for a few minutes? Even though
fatigue sets in rapidly, less work is actually being done, but it isn't the type of work for which the body was designed.
It's the same principle: Would you rather walk for an hour or stand
in one place for an hour? Blood has difficulty flowing through
contracted muscles; dynamic work actually helps pump your blood, and
the blood is the key. It brings in nutrients and removes waste products
that result from burning calories, particularly lactic acid.
Alan Brown, P.T., A.T.C., owner of Granite Hill Physical Therapy states: "Comfort
rests have proven to be very effective in reducing excess demand placed
on shoulder, neck, and upper extremity muscles while computing.
Reducing this demand has helped decrease muscular-skeletal symptoms of
computer operators."
Small-framed:

width should be less than 16 inches. Weight is usually less than 100 lb.
