"When people look at trying to prevent repetitive motion injuries, mostly they look at how the workstation, chair, and other pieces of equipment are put together, which is a valuable thing to do. But what is missed in all of that is how people actually use their bodies. The Kines-Tech program really provides a significant missing element in most injury prevention programs."
Mr. Bob Noha, Loss Control Specialist, Firemans Fund Insurance Co.

Good ideas. Individual suggestions vital. Excellent program.

Excellent approach to tackling problems of "ergonomic" discomfort and injuries. I highly recommend.

I made use of the training on and off work.

........ This program has helped me identify how to relax my hands while typing quickly which has had an enormous impact on my wrist health.......

I thought it was very informative and made me much more aware of the control I have over physical discomfort due to sitting at a desk for long hours. I believe most people are not aware of their own body movements.

It came at a time I really needed it - I feel I've made significant change and improvements. We should embrace this company wide.

Although I don't practice all that I've learned all the time, I do have an understanding of what I should be doing and often catch and correct my behavior. It is valuable.

This training was very valuable to one. It is one more 'tool' I have in maintaining my overall health. I have incorporated the technique permanently into my life and I'm glad I had the opportunity.

My overall opinion of this training is extremely high. Had I had this training years ago I wouldn't have had the workers comp injuries I have today.

Very good - gives more ideas of what you can do for yourself when you hurt or are uncomfortable.

I am pleased with the results of the training. I am more cognizant of my 'mis-use' habits and believe it has helped improve the way my neck, shoulder and arms feel.

I would recommend the course to all employees who feel any physical stress from the work station.

Very helpful. The trainer taught me things and made ergonomic suggestions that eliminated neck and wrist pain.

It is an excellent component to our ergonomic program.

Training was very knowledgeable. I gained good information to use at my workstation. Good worksheets and examples were given out.

I have had a clear improvement in my shoulders and back. Have several new ideas about how to improve my posture and reduce bad postural habits. Am trying every day to do fewer things wrong.

Excellent - increased my level of awareness of my body so that I could 'catch myself' when I was using my computer incorrectly before the situation escalated. Was also able to recover from a pulled lower back muscle much faster than usual.

I held tension in my shoulders and need to practice the techniques learned in Kines-Tech to correct the problem. My shoulder problem is definitely decreasing.

Great!! John pointed out things to me I had no idea I was doing. In fact my Chiropractor never mentioned them to me either. It all made so much sense

Fantastic.

.......... This reminded me to think how I move and use my workspace to minimize stress and back pain (which has not reappeared since using this Alexander Technique.)

I'm delighted by the training and results. I really learned it well and the pattern, timing and pacing of the training was superb. It's given me techniques for relaxation as well as productivity.

This has been fabulous - it is an excellent loss control tool. I highly recommend using this training for more employees. Excellent - benefits have carried over to my home life - I have less discomfort doing household chores.

I greatly appreciate being included. It couldn't have come at a better time as I was diagnosed with carpal tunnel. Instructor was easy to work with. Made simple easy to follow instructions. .........Just being evaluated really opened my eyes and made me recognize things I need to work on. Thank you.

This training was very useful to me in work habits and other day to day activities. I have improved my posture and fitness myself in the last few years but was holding posture through tension. This course has helped me to learn to avoid tension and to allow proper usage. The ideas are always in the back of my mind every day and I believe have helped me very much.

I very much appreciated it..... I think it was good to let people see how other people get 'treated' by this approach since we all have unique needs and what works for one person may not for another. Thanks!

Great!! This has become an eye opener to the effect of how body positioning / habits can affect body comfort.....Thank you for the opportunity to participate in this program.

This program's focus on "awareness" is so easy to apply. I can feel immediate results and the follow ups help me to maintain the benefits. The progression of the program seemed just right: 1. Group session to introduce - efficient. 2. Paired follow ups - individualized sharing. 3. Workstation follow ups - real world and personalized.

It worked!

Very eye opening. A very different way of thinking.

Make it available to ALL employees. Less workers comp claims.

Give it to all employees to prevent carpal tunnel.
