Mousetrapper Armrest Details
Mousetrapper Armrest has an asymmetrical design that promotes a naturally centred and relaxed working position in front of your keyboard. This prevents the risks of strain injuries like RSI and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome.
The armrest is contoured with a uniquely thin central section, which is only 4cm deep at the centre. This encourages you to work very close to the keyboard, while still giving you a robust and comfortable place to rest your arms. The closer proximity prevents over-stretching, ensuring you are free from strain in your arms, shoulders and back.
Two z-shaped brackets are supplied with the armrest which enables you to fix it to the front of your desk. This, along with the contouring means you are getting a robust place to position your arms while still working close to your input devices. With this, you are also retaining valuable desk space which might not be the case with standard wrist rests.
The armrest is made from easy-to-wipe black artificial leather so you can ensure it stays clean and disinfected.
Ergonomic Benefits
Ergonomic wrist rests ensure good posture by limiting the angle to which your wrists can bend, avoiding unnecessary stress on your wrists. It is important to note that wrist rests shouldn’t provide the surface from which to work, moreover, your hands should move freely and be elevated above the rest. A good ergonomic posture ensures your arms sit naturally and parallel with the floor, with your hands supported at the same height.
During periods of downtime, or when your work routines do not require keyboard or mouse use, wrist rests provide a comfortable surface to rest and this should be via the heel or palm of your hand. This helps prevent compression in your blood vessels, tendons and nerves which is one of the causes of carpal tunnel syndrome. Resting your wrist on a hard surface like a table causes pressure on your wrists, making the rest potentially harmful.
