1 - Introduction

R.S.I (Repetitive Strain Injury) is a work related osteomuscular disease. Its relation is linked to the activity made by someone and always occurs when there is some incompatibility between the physical requirement of the activity or task and the physical human ability. There are some risk factors that contribute to the injury. One of them: repetitive movements (Typing, or mouse movements), incorrect posture, etc... This disease settles down slowly in the human body and most of time goes unnoticed throughout ones work life and when it is noticed there is at once strict danger to the affected area.

To get rid of this inconvenience, people fall into the trap by themselves: assuming improper posture, retracting their tendon, usually keeping their movements controlled and some of them have difficulty with their face movements.  This is the beginning of the vicious circle caused by the disease.

NO LER software is a system that is going to establish pauses between the constant use of a computer, helping to combat this osteomuscular disease.

Reduction of judicial expenses (work sues)

4 - Basic Exercises

*The list below  is aimed at those people who use  a computer:

•  Joing your hands - palms straight ahead, moving them down and up, until you feel a soft streching out, during 8 minutes. This exercise streches out the wrists forearms and hands.
• Clasp your fingers and stretch out arms ahead.
• Clasp your fingers and stretch out arms upwards.
• Hold your left elbow tightly using your right hand and softly, pulling your elbow behind the head until you feel the stretching of your shoulder or at the back side of your arms. Keep the stretch for 10 seconds. It helps you to stretch your triceps (back arm side), superior shoulders part and body lateral.
• Inclinate your body ahead, keeping down head and relaxed neck for 10 seconds. This stretches your back out.
