RSI Costing the UK £300 million a Year!

On the BBC News website yesterday health experts said that RSI is costing the UK £300 million a year. The umbrella of RSI covers the upper limb area and includes the upper back.

According to the Chartered Society of Physiotherapy, RSI can be often be avoided and encouraging regular breaks and exercise are two ways to reduce the risks.

Daily-Exercise has many exercises that can help reduce the risks of RSI, in particular some good strengthening exercise for the wrists. Anyone who uses a computer should have a go at these exercises

One important point to note, whilst reducing the risks of RSI with these exercises, you are also exercising your tummy muscles and helping to keep them strong, and importantly, flatter!
