Ergonomics

Ergonomics At igophysio we recognise the importance of correct ergonomics in today's workplace.

With the rapid development of computers an increasing number of people are working in offices for long hours in relatively fixed positions, performing repetitive movements while working hard to meet deadlines. This type of work is associated with health problems such as pain and discomfort in the neck, arms, elbows, wrists and hands.

A physiotherapist with a specialist knowledge in ergonomics and work related conditions can perform an individual work station assessment. Recommendations will be given such as the correct seating and workspace layout to prevent such conditions happening. Risks will be identified and advice given on correct posture, height of the desk and chair, position of screen, mouse and keyboard.

Igophysio run on-site physiotherapy and ergonomic clinics for corporate clients. Such services are tailor made to the individual business in order to satisfy their needs and demands.
