These carefully designed accessories do more than provide temporary comfort—they create a foundation of support that protects against the gradual development of repetitive strain injuries. Whether you're seeking basic cushioning for occasional computer use or comprehensive support for intensive daily work, our selection prioritises anatomical design, pressure distribution, and durable materials that work together to transform how your arms and wrists interact with your workspace throughout the workday.
Why Use Arm and Wrist Supports? Proactive Injury Prevention
These supports serve as your first line of defence against computer-related musculoskeletal disorders by addressing the root causes of wrist and arm strain.
During extended typing sessions, wrists naturally tend to extend upward, compressing the carpal tunnel and restricting blood flow—a primary contributor to discomfort and potential injury. Quality supports maintaining the recommended neutral wrist position (0-15 degrees of extension), reducing pressure on the median nerve and preventing the inflammation that leads to conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome.

For mouse users, proper support prevents ulnar deviation (sideways bending) that strains tendons and ligaments. Beyond injury prevention, these ergonomic aids reduce muscle fatigue in the forearms and shoulders by providing stable, comfortable surfaces that minimise the micro-adjustments your muscles constantly make during unsupported work.
