Whether compression of the median nerve as in seen in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome or fatigue of the muscles of the hand, computer related hand injuries are rampant in the workplace. These problems may be compounded by angulation of the wrist, particularly when the table or desk height does not match arm height. Reducing wrist angulation with the R-PAD maximizes carpal tunnel diameter.

In order to improve wrist ergonomics and angulation, users often sit forward in their work chairs. With the R-PAD, you are able to sit back into your chair while you use your mouse.

When the wrist is not angulated, blood flows more easily to the fragile wrist bones, nerves, tendons, hand muscles, and surrounding structures.
