Ergonomics means that YOU should feel good!
The importance of changing position of the muscles
The most important thing to feel good at work is to get more movement into the working day. The ergonomics of the old days were based on the muscles being static but relieved as much as possible. Now today we know better, the muscles have to change position continuously (achieve movement) to be relaxed and healthy.
WORLD UNIQUE PILOT STUDY PROVES THAT MOVEMENT PROMOTES WELL-BEING!
The risk of developing problems from the neck, shoulder, arm and hand is strongly correlated with an individual’s computer use. Symptoms increase over time and monotonous use of the keyboard and mouse exposes the individual to the risk of developing chronic problems. A world-unique pilot study has been conducted at Linköping University. The study shows significant advantages of working in front of a DynaDesk compared to a static traditional desk. The people who took part in the study not only felt better, the researchers also measured a clear increase in productivity when they worked at a DynaDesk.

HIGHT ADJUSTABLE DESKS ARE NOT SUFFICIENTLY GOOD
Many people do not think that the desk is particularly important, but the fact is that it is the first, and sometimes most important step towards an ergonomically adapted office.
Many people have a height-adjustable desk, and it is of course important that you know how to use the possibilities with this. You should change working height several times a day, for example you can start by standing up when you get to work. When you then get tired in the legs, you can sit down and then stand up again if you leave your place for a short while.
In this way, it becomes a habit to continuously change working position every day. Unfortunately, the above does not matter for shoulders and arms and this is where most people have their problems. Regardless of the height of the desk, the upper body is static and problems can occur. A DynaDesk gives the user a proven effect for both well-being and productivity. Do not settle for a static height-adjustable desk!
IT TAKES MORE THAN A DYNADESK TO GET A REALLY GOOD WORKPLACE
A DynaDesk is not enough to get an optimal workplace, even if it is perhaps the most important thing. Remember to have the right chair (choose an active, unstable chair), the right lighting, good keyboard and mouse, good ventilation and a low noise level. The monitor is also very important. It should be placed about 60-80 cm from the eyes, slightly depending on the screen size. The top of the screen should be at the same height as your eyes and slightly angled away from you.
