We are
back:
Our domain name was lost for two
years when notification of renewal was sent to an expired email address
and ErgoSpace Corp. was not manufacturing for a period -- but the
company is back poised for growth, reaching out to our many fans
(therapists, ergonomists, etc..), our appreciative customers, people
unfamiliar with the ErgoSpace Palm Posturing System, and we will be
getting the word out - with your help - to reach the many people who can
benefit from our innovative and extremely effective palm posturing
system.
With this new beginning, this web
site is very new and it will be updated to provided more information
about this and future products -- so please
return for updates.
A little
history:
The LaunchPad Professional has been
our most popular product and it is the one we are re-launching the
company with -- offering a considerable discount for a limited time over
past pricing to our loyal and new customers.
The original concept was designed
out of necessity for it reversed the inventor's RSI including carpal
tunnel, lateral epicondolytis, neck pain, and shoulder pain associated
with mousing. The palm posturing system concept then developed with
feedback from research at the University of Washington, from
ergonomists, ergonomic office furniture dealer representatives, end
users working on desktop publishing, CAD, graphics design, web design,
and data input. The ErgoSpace Palm Posturing System version with the
integrated rigid mouse pad (the LaunchPad Professional) has been our
most popular as it adapts to the broadest range of work spaces and
essentially joins with the data input device that rests on the
integrated rigid mouse pad base.
The product was then sold to
thousands through the recommendations of ergonomics, occupational
therapists, physical therapists, ergonomic office furniture consultants,
risk managers, and end users' word of mouth. Many of these experts
realize that RSI primarily affects the mousing wrist (etc..) first and
most. They also realize that the ErgoSpace Palm Posturing System
incorporates a synergy of the key elements essential to computer
ergonomics, that it is easily customizable to virtually all cursor
controlling input devices as well a ten key systems, and that it
integrates with and improves most any work space. So a huge benefit can
be introduced quickly without disruption.
The concept of the ergonomic mouse
has evolved through many iterations and the LaunchPad Professional has
enhanced all of them -- primarily since it provides passive support of
proper posture with the wrist aligned, the palm slightly supinated, the
hand relaxed and fingers not pre-stressed, and support of proper posture
in the resting phase. During the resting phase the shoulder, neck and
back also gain relief while the wrist remains aligned during a period
that can be very stressful. Wrist rests don't do this - in fact they can
cause considerable harm. Ergonomic mice and track balls don't do this.
And the LaunchPad will out survive them all with durability to last for
many years - from mouse to mouse, track ball to track ball, mouse to
track ball -- etcetera.... So it a great value, elegant, extremely
comfortable, easy to adapt to your specific input device and work space,
and it is effective.
So if you are looking for a mouse
pad, a wrist rest, or an computer mouse you have found much more than
that.
