Office Ergonomics involves evaluating and adjusting your work environment—chair, desk, keyboard, monitor, and more—to better fit your body and reduce repetitive stress. Poor posture, prolonged sitting, and suboptimal desk setups can lead to back pain, neck tension, carpal tunnel syndrome, and overall fatigue. By implementing ergonomic principles, employees can maintain a healthier posture, minimize strain, and ultimately be more productive. At Be On The Move, our team offers on-site and virtual ergonomic assessments, where we analyze how you sit, type, and move throughout the day. We provide practical solutions, such as adjusting chair height, configuring standing desks, and recommending supportive devices. Education on micro-breaks, stretching routines, and good posture practices complements these adjustments, ensuring that your work environment supports—not hinders—your health.
Our specialists observe your typical work habits, assess your workspace, and identify risk factors. We then offer tailored recommendations—from simple height adjustments to full-scale workstation redesign—and provide guidance on posture and movement strategies.
Desk-bound workers, remote employees, or anyone seeking to prevent or alleviate back, neck, and wrist pain related to prolonged computer use.
Can office ergonomics help reduce neck and back pain?
Yes. Proper setup of your chair, desk, and monitor height significantly reduces strain on the spine.
Are standing desks always better than sitting desks?
They can help, but alternating between sitting and standing is generally most beneficial.
What if my office space is limited?
We provide creative solutions for smaller spaces, including compact furniture and ergonomic accessories.
Do you offer virtual consultations?
Yes. We can evaluate your remote workspace through video calls and photos.
How often should I take breaks to stretch?
Every 20–30 minutes, if possible. Short stretch breaks can help prevent repetitive strain injuries.
Can ergonomics prevent carpal tunnel syndrome?
An ergonomic keyboard setup and wrist supports can reduce the risk of repetitive strain on the wrists.
Will I need to buy expensive equipment?
Not always. Small adjustments, like monitor risers or lumbar supports, can make a big impact without high costs.
Is your pain keeping you from fully enjoying your day?
Do you wish it would just disappear, but it continues to trouble you?
If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, we understand how frustrating and overwhelming persistent pain can be. That’s why we’re here to help. Our caring team of physical therapists will listen to your concerns, create a custom treatment plan just for you, and work by your side every step of the way—so you can get back to living life on your terms.
