Left-Handed Version Now Available!

Most standard computer mice are too small for the hand, while their shape forces hands and fingers into an unnatural gripping position. They lack comfort. Instead of using your hand and wrist, your arm will let the optical HandshoeMouse float without any effort. The HandshoeMouse fits like a glove and is available in three sizes, so there is a HandshoeMouse for everyone.

This mouse prevents over exertion of certain muscles in arms and hands, a major source of NSAH (Neck, Shoulders, Arms and Hands complaints) and RSI. Working with a conventional computer mouse may result in complaints like tingling, pain and /or obstruction of blood flow to and from the arms and hands. Another indication of NSAH is a restricted rotation of the head.

Features & Benefits:

• No need to hold on to, or grip the mouse
• Your hand, thumb and fingers are supported in the optimal, relaxed position
• Thumb rest prevents excessive thumb action which can be harmful
• There is no friction between the skin of your hand and the desktop

Research:

A comparison between the HandshoeMouse and a conventional computer mouse using electromyogram (EMG) measurements shows the difference in muscle activity of the hand and fingers, due to gripping and pinching. When working with the HandShoeMouse there is hardly any signal which means the muscles are relaxed. However, working with a conventional (computer) mouse evokes a substantial signal which means high muscle tension.
