How To Sit Properly In Front Of A Computer

                    

Sitting at a computer for long periods of time can take a toll on your body. By not sitting in the correct position, it is easy to end up with back pain, neck pain, knee pains, and a tingling of the hands and fingers. This could easily turn into Carpal Tunnel Syndrome over prolonged usage. Sometimes, this pain becomes so severe and painful that surgery is the only option. It is best avoided by good practices

          1, Push your hips as far back as they can go in the chair. Adjust the seat height so that your feet are flat on the floor and your knees equal to, or slightly lower than, your hips. Adjust the back of the chair to a 100°-110° reclined angle. Make sure that your upper and lower back are supported. If necessary, use inflatable cushions or small pillows. When your chair has an active back mechanism use it to make frequent position changes. Adjust the armrests so that your shoulders are relaxed, and remove them completely if you find that they are in your way         

2. Sit close to your keyboard and position it so that it is directly in front of your body. Make sure that the keys are centered with your body          

 3. Adjust the keyboard height so that your shoulders are relaxed, your elbows are in a slightly open position, and your wrists and hands are straight.               

4. Determine the tilt of your keyboard based on your sitting position. Use the keyboard tray mechanism, or keyboard feet, to adjust the tilt. If you sit in a forward or upright position, try tilting your keyboard away from you, but if you are slightly reclined, then a slight forward tilt will help to maintain a straight wrist position

                      

Use wrist rests to help maintain neutral postures and pad hard surfaces.The wrist rest should only be used to rest the palms of the hands between keystrokes and not while typing. Place the pointer as close as possible to the keyboard. Placing it on a slightly inclined surface, or using it on a mouse bridge placed over the 10-keypad, can help to bring it closer. position 

     6. Know that incorrect positioning of the screen and source documents can result in awkward postures. Adjust the monitor and source documents so that your neck is in a neutral, relaxed position. Center the monitor directly in front of you, above your keyboard.Position the top of the monitor approximately 2-3" above your seated eye level. If you wear bifocals, lower the monitor to a comfortable reading level.

  7. Sit at least an arm's length away from the screen and adjust the distance for your vision. Reduce any glare by carefully positioning the screen, which you should be looking almost straight at, but partially looking down. Adjust any curtains or blinds as needed. Adjust the vertical screen angle and screen controls to minimize glare from overhead lights.

8. Position the source documents directly in front of you, and use an in-line copy stand. If there is insufficient space then place the documents on a document holder positioned adjacent to the monitor. Place your telephone within easy reach. Use headsets and a speaker phone to eliminate cradling the handset. 

9. If you, like me, have a job where you sit still in front of a computer several hours per day, it's easy to forget that you need to move once in a while. I need to remind myself of that all the time. I can start out by sitting straight and then, somehow, later in the afternoon (especially on Fridays) I'm half lying down on my chair. Not so good for back, neck and shoulders. Do yourself a favor and take small breaks during your workday to release some of that muscle tension.

 10. Exercise your hand by pushing on top of your fingers, and using backword resistance movements.

11. Do a minimum of fifteen reps for each hand at least six time every day. This simple exercise will prevent you from developing carpal tunnel finger problems in the future. Believe me carpal tunnel problem is very painful and annoying. 

12. Even if you don't have any problems right now, you may prevent pain later in life by doing a few good exercises

 

 

 

• An articulating keyboard tray can provide optimal positioning of input devices. However, it should accommodate the mouse, enable leg clearance, and have an adjustable height and tilt mechanism. The tray should not push you too far away from other work materials, such as your telephone

• If you do not have a fully adjustable keyboard tray, you may need to adjust your workstation height and the height of your chair, or use a seat cushion to get in a comfortable position. Remember to use a footrest if your feet dangle.

• Take short 1-2 minute stretch breaks every 20-30 minutes. After each hour of work, take a break or change tasks for at least 5-10 minutes. Always try to get away from your computer during lunch breaks.

• Avoid eye fatigue by resting and refocusing your eyes periodically. Look away from the monitor and focus on something in the distance. Rest your eyes by covering them with your palms for 10-15 seconds. Use correct posture when working. Keep moving as much as possible.

• Avoid using excessively wide wrist rests, or wrist rests that are higher than the space bar of your keyboard.

• Other techniques to reduce glare include use of optical glass glare filters, light filters, or secondary task lights

• If your wrist hurts frequently while typing try the Dvorak keyboard (American Simplified Keyboard) setup.
