“An ounce of prevention is worth a
pound of cure”
Take a Preventative Approach
Because few – if any – computer-bound workers
have policies which insure their hands, eyes, backs,
etc. against It’s imperative to take a preventative
approach to protecting your livelihood and your
health.
We know how easy it is for you to lose track of
time. When you get into a rhythm of typing or
editing hours can go by without notice. Somewhere
along the way you begin to experience discomfort.
Then eventually down the road chain reaction type
injuries begin to manifest, because like most of the
American work force you are not positioned in a
naturally comfortable posture. Ultimately these
injuries result in reduced productivity and a lower
quality of life outside of work.
Our goal is to help you make sure that never
happens. The only one of its kind Stop & Stretch
widget and corresponding web site provide you with
the guidelines for a preventative approach to your
good health within the workplace.
We have everything organized and conveniently
located so that you can download the widget and get
through the articles quickly and systematically begin
improving your health TODAY.

Start by downloading your Stop & Stretch widget.
The program will prompt you to fill out a bit of
information relating to your overall physical status
at the time. It will give you a great point of reference
and an honest assessment of which areas you may
need to address.
Review the Work Station Checklist article and make
note of which areas of your work station you can
begin updating into more ergonomic and user
friendly functionality.
Depending on your financial situation, it may make
sense to begin with the small less expensive changes
(ergonomic mouse pad - $10, ergonomic keyboard
pad - $20) before you jump into the larger purchases
(ergonomic mouse - $100+, ergonomic keyboard -
$100+)
Take your time get to know the site and really make
an effort to apply one new thing that you have
picked up here at least once a week.
