Ergonomic Micro-Upgrades: Keyboard, Mouse & Accessories that Save Wrists | DeskDen Supplies
Share
Prologue
Ergonomics is architecture for the body. You don’t need a remodel to feel better; you need micro-upgrades that meet your anatomy where it works: keyboards & mice that fit, wrist supports, and measured reaches that reduce strain. Explore under Digital Accessories and Home Office → Ergonomic Accessories. DeskDen Supplies
1) The Triangle of Comfort
-
Eyes: top of screen ≈ eye level.
-
Elbows: 90–110°.
-
Wrists: neutral, not cocked up.
2) Keyboard Choices
-
Low-profile to reduce wrist extension.
-
Split/ergonomic if shoulder width or ulnar pain demands alignment.
-
Add a wrist rest only if you float-type poorly—never press down while typing.
3) Mouse Logic
-
Size to hand (no clawing).
-
Vertical or trackball options can ease pronation and shoulder travel.
4) Layout Discipline
-
Keep Notebooks & Planners within forearm’s reach; move infrequent items to the edge.
-
Dock a phone stand to stop neck tilts.
5) Micro-Break Protocol (every 45–60 minutes)
Stand, roll shoulders, focus on a far point, sip water. The best posture is your next one.
FAQ
Q: Do I need an expensive chair first?
A: Start with input devices + screen height. Chairs help, but hands log the miles.
