W.A.S.P Wrist & Arm Support Product Details
WASP (Wrist and Arm Support Platform) allows you to glide your hand across the full range of the keyboard and mouse while your wrist is comfortably supported. This helps to protect you from the injury and strain that can arise as a result of inadequate limb support when using your keyboard and mouse.
Tests have shown that a restricted blood flow in this area when coupled to muscle fatigue, can result in tissue degradation, the release of lactic acid, Cytokines and other pain-inducing inflammatory substances. Using these wrist supports ensures no loss of blood circulation and will help safeguard against these conditions.
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 should not 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.
