Ergonomic Consulting
As a result of COVID-19, many people have transitioned their computer work into their home environment. As people work on laptops in makeshift offices, at the dinner table, or even on the couch, their bodies are having to deal with long hours in strange postures, and this leads to more discomfort.
Through ergonomics, you can learn how to manage your work practices, adopt less stressful postures, and incorporate new equipment. These changes will ultimately create a more sustainable work environment.
What are some common computer related complaints?
Neck pain
Shoulder pain

For Businesses
I am happy to do a single evaluation for an individual or perform evaluations for multiple employees, and evaluations can be performed for home or in-office workstations.
Evaluations will emphasize education on how to make changes in work practices and posture that can minimize the stress and strain on the body. This is useful for office and home environments, as it educates on how to evaluate work conditions and behaviors in any environment.
Equipment recommendations will focus on creating adaptable work spaces and environments. An adaptable work space makes it easier (or even possible) for a worker to use their new work practices and postural knowledge to reduce the stress and strain on their body. Your company’s resources and preferences for equipment purchases will be discussed prior to any individual evaluations and recommendations.
