Due to the repetitive nature of work, hobbies and lifestyle activites the body is placed in sustained positions and postures over long periods of time. Research has proven that incorrect or malaligned postions maintained over time can lead to symptoms, movement problems and chronic conditions. Ergonomics is the intervention used to combat these side effects and is the alignment, design and positioning of workstations, equipment and the individual to minimise stresses on the body and prevent progressive dysfunction.
