Ergonomics
The Science of Fitting the Job to the Person
How Can Ergonomics help you?
The goal of ergonomics is to design or redesign workstations, tools and work tasks for safety, efficacy and comfort. A successful ergonomic design will help reduce common ailments such as discomfort, fatigue and injuries as well as increase morale and productivity! It will make you (or your staff) happier and more able to get a lot done!

Do You Have:
. Eye Strain?
. Sore Neck or Back?
. Arm or Hand Weakness?
. Pain, Numbness & Tingling?
. Injuries?
. Fatigue?

Work with greater comfort and efficiency in your office, industry or home!

Environments:
Office: Do you have the most modern and complex office environment or are you squeezed into the most challenging and modest work place cubicle?

Industrial or Other Type of Job: Do you do physical work? Work outside? Work with a sewing machine, heavy objects, up on high ladders or in a school?

At Home: Do you spend a significant amount of time in your kitchen, bending over and lifting children, caring for an elderly parent or bed-ridden person, putting on your make-up, doing house cleaning?

Special Note to New Parents:
Handling a squirming child, breast-feeding, getting a kid into and out of a crib, car-seat or stroller can be extremely hard on your back, neck and arms!  Especially when you are sleep deprived! (Two children of her own makes Irene Diamond an expert on Ergonomics for New Parents! Her new DVD - Ergo-Mommy should be released soon.)

Special Note to People Who Sleep:
Of course we all sleep, but some of us have trouble getting a good night's sleep.

Do you have a hard time finding a comfortable position? Do you wake up due to pain? Does your arm fall asleep before you do? Do you know you need a new mattress and/or pillow, but don't know what to buy? We can help with information on products, but more importantly, guidance on, believe it or not ergonomics of sleep!

Regardless of what you do - you need to know how to do it easier,
with less strain on your body!

Irene Diamond will begin with an evaluation to assess your situation and needs. Based on this evaluation, she will educate you of the variety of common errors that you may be doing that may be affecting your efficiency as well as harming your wellbeing. Rearrangements to your workstation or other environment will be suggested or actually done on the spot. If necessary, practical organizational tools or products will be suggested. Finally, various tips on body alignment, posture, lifting and bending, and stretches and strengthening exercises will all be taught to ensure your safety and comfort.

These sessions are best held at your location where the actual job is being performed, but some aspects can also be taught at Diamond Massage & Wellness Center.

Diamond's Goals

.Figure out what the best set-up should be
.Consider your financial / time budget
.Make the changes needed or direct you to the proper resources
