Anti.Fatigue™ We offer the best available science in computer mousing, that is encompassed into a practical strategy we call Anti.Fatigue™ Anti.Fatigue™ manages the causal problems, not just the symptoms It addresses the underlying issues that cause mousing limbs to fail

Our Remedy Provide tools that work within the body's limitations; while still satisfying your work expectations Using the AirO2bic Mouse™ When first using AirO2bic™ mouse new sensations may be felt in the mousing arm This is normal and to be expected and we callthis the acclimatization period Make sufficient space for the mousing area and arms should hang freely Use the upper arm muscles to move the hand that now rests in the AirO2bic™ Remember not to grip and keep fingers off buttons (Nib™ makes for Click-Less)

If unsure how much space you need, use a Glide-Well™ mouse mat Optimized for use with High Glide Feet, it constantly reminds of good posture New sensations experienced should not be painful Stop immediately and seek medical advice if there are! Sensations felt can be viewed as a positive indication of mousing improvement Your arm is in the process of adapting to a new and more effective posture Some may feel the need, initially, to concentrate more on pointing This will quickly pass (an hour or two) as it becomes automatic behavior again The arm learns the moves so the brain can issue orders and not instructions!

The most common temporary experience is hands becoming warm, hot and even sweaty One explanation is that your circulation is less restricted and so blood flow is greater Hands become flushed and therefore warmer It only occurs for some for the first hour or so at the start of the day After a few days it gets less and soon stops Debris can build up in the gully of your AirO2bic™ It cleans off easily and is back to "new" with computer safe cleaning products It is a lot easier than cleaning track balls!

Common sense must prevail and if any sensations experienced become intense: Take breaks as necessary If receiving medical treatment notify your clinician before you begin using AirO2bic™ They can monitor and adapt any therapy that they feel is appropriate Any on-going pain from any mouse should be notified to a medical practitioner
