    Hence I said more or less, depending on what had caused the issue in the first place.

        I was having wrist pain and my employee safety committee ordered me a new chair. Seems remote to me, but what the heck! Herman Miller Aero.

        Mouse of keyboard caused? You can do a lot with shortcuts and not use the mouse so much. Sometimes I switch to my left hand with the mouse to give the right a break.

          When I left hand mouse it feels like someone else is writing the code.

            Would it make more sense to get an accurate diagnosis (wrist pain) before recommending treatment (new chair). It sounds like the only tool HR has in their toolbox is a new chair. Would anybody troubleshoot code that way? First find out what the problem is, then start modifying the appropriate parameters. As a chiropractor I certainly love me some good chair talk but we need to make sure we are addressing the right issue. Could be neck, shoulder,elbow or wrist issue. May be related to work or some other activity (workouts,hobbies, etc). Troubleshooting FTW!

                Wristbrace. ElasticBand. A side table so you can rest your whole arm level with your wrist ... (carpal tunnel syndrome). (Check the level of your chair left-to-right).

                  Actually, the chair probably did what was needed, but I augmented it with exercises and have no problem. What I had requested was an ergonomic keyboard (already using a nice wrist rest), but the old chair had a broken back and was not able to be locked into an upright position. I went into the Herman Miller site and picked out the back support features I thought I needed and had the chair two days later.

                    Singular? Do you use a mouse/pad with that hand? Then switch hands. Takes time to learn but doable and much better than repetitive motion syndrome. Once the pain goes away completely switch back and switch back when pain starts again.

                      You mean Aeron. That's what I have at work. We did get a heavy discount since we write software for Herman Miller!
