Wheeled Laptop Bag / Trolly Bag

Wheeled laptop bag | Mobile office bagCarrying a conventional laptop while commuting can be a source of neck and shoulder pain.

 

A better solution is to get a Wheeled Laptop Bag. It doesn't have to be tartan and accompany you to the shops!

 

They generally look very business-like and once you start using them you will quickly feel the benefit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Telephones and Headsets

Telephone HeadsetsHolding a phone to your ear is another RSI risk you can do without!

 

If you imagine, any posture where your muscles are not in a resting position, if held long enough will give you problems.

 

In business scenarios, you can be on the phone for an hour sometimes and if you're using a PC at the same time, you inevitably wedge the phone between ear and shoulder!

 

With a headset, you have none of those issues. Whether it is cordless or corded / wireless or wired, any headset is better than none.

 

 

 

 

Ergonomic Gel Wrist Rests

Gel Wrist RestThe idea behind gel wrist rests is that they help support the hand so that the wrist and arm isn't held in a tense position and thereby become overused leading to RSI.
