- What
Free Ergo Equipment Do You Need?
If there's a piece of ergonomic equipment you need that's not too expensive,
tell us what it is and perhaps
we can provide it for promotional purposes. Frankly, it's the cheapest
form of advertising possible, so don't be surprised if you get what you
need. And mention it to other folks when they matter-of-factly say, "oh
yeh, I've had this pain..."
- 2011-Mar-25: the Evoluent Vertical Mouse 2 was given
to an RSI sufferer who is a college professor in Florida.

About
Who |
Jack Bellis & Suparna Damany.
Jack is a long-time technical writer. Suparna is a physical therapist
who treated Jack for a repetitive strain injury. |
|
What |
Advice on treating repetitive strain injuries...primarily
computer related, but you'll learn a lot here for any type of cumulative
trauma injury. Based on our book, "(On Amazon) It's
Not Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: RSI Theory & Therapy for Computer Professionals." |
Where |
Jack is from suburban Philadelphia, PA USA. Suparna is
from Allentown, PA. |
Why |
Jack had surgery for computer-related RSI and his symptoms
came back in 3 weeks. Suparna helped him control the problem. This site
helps promote our book. |
How |
We recommend lots of hands-on therapy. We have a
five-page article synopsizing our theory of RSI, an interactive quiz,
many sample chapters (Chapter
7) and testimonials from the book, an awesome review, a brochure
that you can print for business or personal use, and our collection of
web links (to the left). |
When |
Now! The single most common remark from chronic
RSI sufferers is wishing they had treated it seriously right away. |
Follow-Up... Are We Wrong? Or Outdated?
It's Not Carpal Tunnel Syndrome was
published in May of 2000... the years fly by! And just like all RSI sufferers,
we too are waiting for the breakthroughs that relegate our book to the
dustbin. But as we work through our 5th printing and see book readers
change to iPad readers, it looks like we're still waiting. More...
From Jack Bellis...
When a physical therapist performed tests on me that my surgeon didn't
— before or after the operation on my ulnar nerve — and my symptoms returned
in a few weeks, I decided that someone had to tell the story. With my
therapist, Suparna Damany, I've written a book on the subject, entitled
"(Amazon) It's Not Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: RSI
Theory & Therapy for Computer Professionals." In the book
and on this web site is what I learned about RSI, without embellishment
or false promises, and with hard details — not just accolades — from other
patients.
Our Theory
If you find that many of the explanations you read about RSI leave you
wanting, this five-page article may be what you're looking for. Written
by a veteran technical writer with RSI, in conjunction with a successful
physical therapist, it goes where few other sources do...drawing an explanation
for computer-related RSI that is comprehensive enough to explain the common
denominators, and specific enough to recommend distinct therapies.
Read more, our 5-page theory... it might explain why no one else seems
to solve your RSI! |
