About the Class

Do you experience wrist, arm, or neck pain when working on your computer?

The MouseKeyDo™ System can help you solve this problem. This course will explain to you an innovative new way to use a keyboard, mouse, laptop, or handheld device.

You’re probably reading this manual because you’re experiencing some amount of pain or discomfort when you work at your computer. Maybe your elbow or neck aches, or your fingers are numb, or your hands have become so weak you can barely grip a pencil. You may be seeing a physical therapist; you may have considered or even undergone surgery.

You are not alone. Repetitive strain injury (RSI) is a worldwide problem and is one of the country’s leading work-related injuries. It accounts for almost two-thirds of all worker compensation claims. Although treatment and education help many RSI sufferers, the number of RSI cases continues to rise. We address the immediate symptoms, but not the cause. The human body simply wasn’t made for the kinds of motions most people make over and over again as they sit in a chair typing.

The answer is to change the way we type. That’s the thinking behind the MouseKeyDo™ System.

The MouseKeyDo™ System is the creation of Norman J. Kahan, M.D., founder, and director of Sports and Occupation Medical Associates in Los Gatos, California. A specialist in physical medicine and rehabilitation, Dr. Kahan noticed that a significant number of his patients were suffering from computer-related repetitive strain injuries. He also realized that even as they were being treated, many of them continued the same mouse and keyboard habits that had injured them in the first place. They didn’t know any other way to work.

Combining his background in rehabilitation, his research in ergonomics, and his study of computer and piano keyboard techniques, Dr. Kahan developed an entirely new way to type and mouse based on the way the body naturally moves. He has taught his system to several thousand patients in the last two decades. Studies using this technique shows the following results:

What kind of results can I expect?

  • 90% of users report less pain
  • The average user improved functionally by 25%
  • A number of users too impaired to type are able to type for 3.6 hours after training
  • More than a year after training, users report even less pain and improved function

The MouseKeyDo™ System is not a quick fix or a short-term solution, but a completely different way of working with the keyboard, mouse, laptop, and handheld devices. You’re learning an entirely new set of skills. As such, they may feel unnatural at first. Remember when you first learned to type? That seemed slow and awkward, too but it soon became automatic. The same thing will happen as you practice exercises. It won't be long before you’re typing quickly, efficiently, and comfortably once more. Use it any way you choose to guide through the entire program from beginning to end, as a reference when you aren't sure whether you're doing an exercise properly, or as an occasional refresher course.

Who should take this course?
  • Computer users with wrist, arm, or neck pain associated with keyboard, mouse, laptop, or handheld use
  • Students and occupational computer users with wrist and elbow tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and shoulder or neck pain associated with computer use
  • Health and safety professionals such as physical/occupational therapists and ergonomists who want a new treatment option for their computer-injured clients
