Desk Setup Guide for Shoulder Pain Relief
Arrange your workstation to eliminate shoulder tension and upper back strain caused by poor ergonomics.
Shoulder pain from desk work is usually caused by one of three problems: a desk that's too high (forcing you to hunch), a mouse placed too far (reaching strains the shoulder), or armrests positioned too high or low. Fix your setup by ensuring your desk lets your elbows rest at 90 degrees, placing your mouse close beside your keyboard, and adjusting armrests to support your elbows without elevating your shoulders.
