Posturite Penguin Wired Ambidextrous Ergonomic Mouse - Vertical High Precision Computer and Laptop Accessory - Compatible with Windows and Apple Mac - Medium Black/Silver

Product Information

An ordinary horizontal mouse requires your forearm to twist away from its natural position, which can cause painful injuries in the long term. The idea behind the Penguin mice is to enable users to use both their right and left hands to share the workload and minimise overuse of one hand. The Penguin mouse is also perfect for hot-desking by enabling both left and right handed users to share the same desk and utilise the ergonomic benefits of the mouse.

The micro receiver (H) is located inside the housing on the underneath of the Penguin ® (J). Remove the micro receiver and insert into a spare USB port of your computer or laptop. Wait for a short time for your PC to recognise the Penguin ® mouse. The Penguin was put to the test during trials carried out by VSI Risk Management and Ergonomics Inc., and the University of Brighton in the UK. Carpal tunnel syndrome - pins and needles, thumb weakness, dull ache in hand or arm caused by compression of the median nerve (which controls sensation and movement in the hands) The vertical orientation of the body is intended to rotate the hand(s) upward and away from the "palm down" posture that traditional mousing devices require. This position can reduce or eliminate the constant tension that is placed upon the tissues and tendons of the forearm when in the common "palm down" orientation. In the picture to the right you can see how the bones of the forearm are forced to twist over each other when adopting a the palm down positioning (i.e. Pronation). This pinches the internal tissue, stretches the membranes between muscle groups, and exerts a constant tension on the tendons that run along the forearm and attached to the outside of the elbow. Over time the constant strain can cause this attachment point to become aggravated, causing the painful condition commonly known as Tennis Elbow, (by the way this is also what happens when using a traditional keyboard - a very good reason the consider finding a keyboard which can reduce pronation while keying.) Comfortable and easy to use. The shape is thoughtfully sculpted for uncompromised comfort and easy-to-reach programmable buttons. No finger contortions are needed to operate the buttons.Improved thumb rest -the thumb rest has been reshaped to provide even more comfort over earlier versions. Ski Art Penguin Lover Gift, Snowy Mountain Cute Christmas Mouse Pad, Blue Round Mousepad, PC Gamer Gifts for Gaming Setup Mice that encourage the wrist to remain in a neutral position have been found to reduce self-reported hand and wrist pain and decrease muscle activity in the extensors of the forearm.
