How it works
Reduces the cumulative mechanical stress on tendons and nerves by interrupting sustained loading. Allows recovery of intramuscular blood flow and oxygenation that is compromised during sustained repetitive work.
Micro-breaks should include active movement — simple wrist, shoulder, and neck exercises — not just passive rest. Timer apps (e.g. Workrave) can prompt breaks for keyboard workers.
Getting started
This is a lifestyle-based approach. Start gradually and consult a health professional if you have any concerns about suitability for your situation.
