Description
The downside of using a laptop Laptops are portable & convenient. They have made working easier but harder on the body. Sadly the design of a laptop with an attached screen & keyboard causes a laptop user to be in awkward body postures. Laptops were hence not designed for long term use! When the screen is at eye level, the keyboard position is too high creating bad hand/wrist posture; when the keyboard is at elbow height, the screen is too low causing you to hunch & poke your neck down. This creates an ongoing trade-off between poor neck/head & hand/wrist postures. These poor postures are unsustainable in the long term & many people find that out the hard way! The commonest problems faced are: ● Carpal Tunnel, Cubital Tunnel Syndrome ("Repetitive Strain Injuries" (RSI)) ● Neck Pain ● Tight, strained shoulder muscles Setting Up Your Laptop the Ergonomic way A comfortable ergonomic workstation setup promotes: ● Neutral back position with the neck in line with the rest of the the spine (NOT bent forwards) ● Back upright & supported ● Shoulders relaxed (NOT hunched or rounded) ● Elbows close to the body & bent at an angle between 90 &120 degrees ● Wrist & hands straight (NOT bent or turned) Ergonomic Laptop set up using a Laptop Stand India Laptop stand - A portable device that transforms your laptop into a comfortable desktop workstation improving head-neck alignment & therefore user comfort. Place your laptop on a laptop stand so the screen is at eye level or slightly below. Attach an external keyboard & mouse at or slightly below elbow height.
