New Method to Reduce Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI) Uses 5 Minute Exercises From Desk-Trainer.com
Desk-Trainer Ltd., specialists in the development of five minute interactive exercises, announces the launch of a new web site designed to protect against pain and injury resulting from Repetitive Stress Injuries (RSI).
Users are guided through a series of interactive animations which provide movements and exercises targeted at specific problem areas. Guided narrations and multimedia explanations during the exercise allow users to be aware of the flexibility changes that occur between the beginning and end of each exercise and reduction in pain or strain. For a complete cycle of fitness, the user’s progress is saved and the program can be continued upon re-entry to the site.
Desk-trainer.com also offers ergonomic advice for workstations, break alerts and presents each subscriber with Personal Statistics for user awareness and adjustments necessary in reversing and preventing RSI. A corporate version of the program with a software envelope that manages licenses and enables statistics is also available for those companies concerned about reducing lost time due to carpal tunnel syndrome and other RSI-related conditions.
“By doing the exercises at www.desk-trainer.com people can reverse many of the common symptoms of RSI,” states Anat Baniel, the developer of the Desk-trainer system and former apprentice of well known movement expert Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais. “By providing people the access to easy, fluid, and well coordinated movements through this site, they will immediately begin to achieve greater flexibility and strength; pain and strain will subside; they will be able to work longer hours with less fatigue, their health will improve and they will have greater physical comfort; more alertness, improved thinking – and a higher quality of life.”
These exercise programs are not the typical stretching or strengthening exercises. The exercises are short, safe, refreshing, and presented in an entertaining format for use at work, at home and on the move. Each exercise is different than all the others. These exercises reverse computer injuries and other Repetitive Strain Injuries (RSI) by using state of the art methodology based in the understanding of how the brain forms new neural patterns to create new pain-free movement patterns. Desk-Trainer Ltd. exercises can improve concentration, alertness and productivity for computer users, video game players, musicians, or athletes involved in sports such as tennis and of course reduce pain and prevent injury.
The Desk-Trainer site also features a Members Club, Blog TV sessions with Anat Baniel, Forums, and more. Future versions of the Desk-Trainer line of products include mobile program versions for on-line exercises via cellular phones and PDA's - allowing users to benefit from a brief stretching and exercise break, no matter where they may be.
