Anybody who works in an office has come to know the term ergonomics over the past decade. It has become an increasingly popular theme, especially when planning work stations. Many of us sit in those Star Trek-looking chairs and use other items that help streamline our work process. Ergonomics affects every part of our lives without many of us every really noticing.
It’s more than chairs and desks. There are products out there that can help you with everything from how you sleep to travelling, even playing video games. Most of these objects are listed in big catalogs and on web sites with little in the way of education and advice.
Of course, when you go to a site, you are reading all of these wonderful things about each item as the owner of those sites are trying to sell you that product. The question is whether that product you are reading about really what you are looking for and whether it does what it says it does. After all, the catalogs and sites are trying to “sell” the product and not necessarily take care of your need.
You can put your worries aside now. At www.ergonecessities.com, we have a web site where every item listed is recommended and endorsed by a Doctor of Chiropractic and Clinical Ergonomic Specialist. There are products and articles for each part of the body that can be affected, such as your knees, hips, spine, head and elbow. There is an interactive “body” where you scroll your mouse to the part that is bothering you. Click on that part and a slew of ideas will be right there at your fingertips.
With each item, there is a brief review and links to Amazon so you can purchase the product. A few examples of what you will find on the site are the Black Swopper Chair, the Rejuvenation Millet Pillow and the 3M Copy Holder and Flat Panel Mount. I fully endorse and recommend each of these products to help you with your individual needs.
I have over 20 years experience dealing with poor office work conditions and the use of ergonomics. I also bring almost 15 years of chiropractic experience with me to help you make the right choices in regards to ergonomic products.
I created this site to give you access to this knowledge and experience. These suggested products help you in being proactive in your work and life. The intention is to create more ease and less physical stress in your body as most musculoskeletal (upper and lower body) pain is preventable with the right ergonomics.
