Offirex Uplift Raised Mouse Mat Product Details
Offirex Uplift Raised Mouse Mat supports your hand and wrist when using a wrist rest, ensuring good posture. Ordinarily, if you are using a wrist rest with your mouse, your hand needs to bend down to reach and use the mouse. This creates a pressure point that could lead to fatigue and eventually cause an injury.
The raised mouse mat sits in front of your wrist rest and underneath your mouse, raising your mouse to an ergonomic height. Two sizes are available, 11 and 18mm, allowing you to find the correct height for your needs.
When choosing your height, you should ensure that the raised mouse pad is slightly lower than your wrist rest, as this will allow for your actual working height.
Ergonomic Benefits
Ergonomic wrist rests ensure good posture by limiting the angle to which your wrists can bend, avoiding unnecessary stress on your wrists. It is important to note that wrist rests shouldn’t provide the surface from which to work, moreover, your hands should move freely and be elevated above the rest. A good ergonomic posture ensures your arms sit naturally and parallel with the floor, with your hands supported at the same height.
During periods of downtime, or when your work routines do not require keyboard or mouse use, wrist rests provide a comfortable surface to rest and this should be via the heel or palm of your hand. This helps prevent compression in your blood vessels, tendons and nerves which is one of the causes of carpal tunnel syndrome. Resting your wrist on a hard surface like a table causes pressure on your wrists, making the rest potentially harmful.
