If you use the computer at work, then you’ve probably experienced aches and pains associated with it.

If not duly addressed through prevention therapy, they will develop into more serious problems such as carpal tunnel syndrome, chronic neck strain and deteriorating vision.

Here are some self-massage and tension-relieving techniques that can instantly relieve you of your workplace pain and mentally relax you so that you can focus better after your short treatment.

Wrist Circles
This simple exercise will help keep the wrist joints mobile and balances the muscles around the joints.

Softly stretch your fingers out from the palms and circle your hands in the air, as if drawing a large circle with your fingertips. Notice if part of the circle is more difficult than others, and go a bit more slowly through that part.

Shoulder Rolls
Sit with your feet flat, spine long and tall, hands by your side or in your lap. Inhaling, roll both shoulders forward, then up toward your ears. Exhaling, continue the circle back as far as you can, then release them down. Continue to roll your shoulders several more times, breathing and moving smoothly.

Neck Relievers
Sit up straight and slowly tilt your head back as far as you can go, stretching the front of your neck. Slowly rotate your head clockwise; try to feel the stretch in your neck at each angle of rotation. Repeat this movement counter clockwise.

For a simple and quick stretch, tip your head towards your right shoulder and hold for about two seconds then do the same but towards the left shoulder.
