RSI/CANS Prevention
Avoid Repetitive Strain Injuries with these useful tips of Karin Vaessen.
Tip 1: During lunch or another break, go outside for example for a walk or cycle a bit and to get some fresh air (preferably on your own!). Try not to take your phone immediately during your break, instead go for a walk or do a few minutes of stretching or exercises.
Tip 2: Switch between postures while working. If you have to read something, try to do that standing for example, walk around while thinking or stand and look out your window while thinking. You don’t have to sit behind your desk all day!
For optimal workspace consults, browse to Karin's website.
Check if your workspace is properly adapted to your posture with a test here.
