Description
The R-Go HE Ergonomic Mouse (Bluetooth) by R-Go Tools is designed to support a natural, handshake style grip that rotates the hand upward and outward. This vertical position helps reduce forearm strain compared to the traditional flat "palm-down" posture. By lifting the hand off the desk surface, it also prevents users from resting their wrist, which minimises the risk of repetitive strain injuries (RSI) caused by extended wrist movements.
Key Features
Comfortable Grip
Keeps your hand in a natural, relaxed position. Its rounded shape offers full support, while dedicated rests for the thumb and little finger prevent slipping.
Easy to Reach Thumb Buttons
Contoured thumb buttons are perfectly positioned for natural access, reducing unintended movements and improving control.
Movement from your arm
Promoting movement from your strong muscles in your shoulder and elbow eases wrist strain. Its lightweight build also helps reduce discomfort.
Ergonomic Benefits
Reduces Pronation
- The R-Go HE positions the hand at an 80° angle. Similar to a handshake, lifting the thumb and index finger. This natural posture helps rotate the forearm away from a pronated (palm-down) position, reducing strain and the risk of related physical issues.
Reduces Wrist Extension:
- Traditional mice require your hand to be in a face down position, often causing users to plant the heel of their hand on the desk and move the mouse with their thumb and fingers. This forces the wrist into an extended position, which can lead to painful RSI. The R-GO HE rotates your hand away from the desk, eliminating the tendency to "plant" your hand and reducing wrist extension. By encouraging arm movement rather than wrist movement, it further minimises strain.
Addresses Tennis Elbow:
- The vertical orientation of the R-GO HE reduces excessive tension on the tendons and soft tissue of the forearm, which is common when the hand is in a palm-down position. This tension often leads to "tennis elbow," where inflammation develops at the outer edge of the elbow. By eliminating pronation, this allows the tendon to relax, promoting healing and reducing discomfort.
Reduce Potential for Anticipation of the Click & Eliminates Finger Extension:
- The ergonomic design and low click force of the R-Go He encourage users to let their fingers rest naturally against the buttons, rather than hovering over them in anticipation of clicking. This eliminates finger extension and hovering, reducing the risk of developing conditions like Trigger Finger.
Almost No Learning Curve:
- The R-Go HE uses the same familiar handhold as a traditional mouse, just turned sideways with the buttons operated by the same fingers. This virtually eliminates the need to retrain or establish new muscle memory, making the transition seamless and intuitive.
