The Restman

I guess just about all of you have some level of discomfort while working on the computer for long periods of time. For me, the pain is in my right shoulder. It begins to ache when mousing and keyboarding. I have tried arm rests and supports but they are too confining for me. One day we received a sample. They called it a Restman. All the gang at the office tried it out most everyone really though it was a great add to our webstore so here is is. It attaches easily to your chair or desk and supports the forearm, wrist, elbow and for me NO SHOULDER PAIN! As you can see in the photo it has a pretty large surface compared to a lot of mouse rests and arm rests that we have put to the test. We have sold over 100 of them and have had only good responses. Most folks thought that the Restman were a great value and were completly satisfied. So that’s good news.Let us know what you think!

HANDLESS MOUSE

fm_at_work152100054_std.JPGfm_pic194180943_std.jpgThanks to everyone who stopped by to check out our new blog. Hope you enjoyed it and will make our blog a regular read. After reading all your comments about the Steelcase Walkstation and questions you asked of us; we have decided to get more information from the manufacturer and will keep you posted.

I think we have come up with another new product that you might find helpful. Your hands and wrists will be given a break and your feet will be tapping away. This foot mouse has a slipper shaped cursor controller where your foot rests. The pedal is preset by windows for their most popular features; however is programmable to what your needs are. Think of the gamers with both of their hands completely free for the battle! Answering the phone and multitasking with your hands just became a lot easier. I think this product will also be helpful to the physically challenged. Another usage for the Footime Mouse could be using it with a program like Microsoft tablet where you could actually type with your feet.
We look forward to hearing from you! Let us know if this is something you would like to see on our website for the price of about $199.00. Until next time.

Ergonomic Blog Blast


Having never blogged before, I’m not sure how to get started. Perhaps I should begin by thanking you for taking the time to visit my website and encouraging you to look at all we have to offer. If you don’t see what you need, please let me know.
It has occurred to me that, while I try to stay on top of the latest ergonomic trends, it would be helpful to have input from my clients as to what their actual needs are so that I can best determine how to fulfill them.
With that in mind, I’m hoping that some of you will take the time to respond with some suggestions as to things you might like to see on our website.
Personally, I recently came across a new product that I found interesting. The concept seems good but I’m wondering if anyone would actually be willing to use it on a regular basis. If you’re like me and spend way too much time sitting at your desk, it might be the solution to your time management problems. Too much work and not enough working out seems to be a growing problem, so to speak. This product could get you up and moving, while still allowing you to get some work done. It’s probably not for everyone but, for those who spend a lot of time reviewing files, responding to e-mails, talking on the phone, etc., this could really work.
Apparently, it has a maximum speed of two miles per hour and is aimed at keeping your heart rate steady. It is quiet and has an adjustable work surface with an arc-shaped indentation in the table. The treadmill’s surface is slightly narrower than most machines’, but the arc and the firm wrist pad help prevent the need for side railings. It isn’t suggested that it be used as the primary work station but possibly an interesting “hot station” to be shared by everyone or in conference rooms where people could walk as they review PowerPoint slides or teleconference. While we would all rather take a walk in the park, this could be a great alternative for those trapped in the office all day trying to get some work done.
What do you think? I look forward to hearing from you. http://www.theergonomicstore.com/
