Another chapter deals with the psychological consequences of this prolonged injury. There is also an introduction into the basics of RSI and I will tell you my own personal journey from hardly being able to hold a glass of water to being pain free and working on the computer again. In 2006 I first experienced severe pain in my forearms after working on the computer intensively. I was 20 years old at that time. In 2007 I had been seen by many doctors, but no one had any idea. Mid-year I couldn't even hold a cup without pain. I spent time on the internet and read a couple of English books on the topic of RSI. 2008: My condition improved significantly after setting up an ergonomic workstation and working with a physical therapist. I started publishing my experiences in German on the internet. In 2009 I was almost healed. However, I still had to perform stretches and take short breaks regularly. I published my story as a German book. In 2010 I had rebuilt all my muscles and I was able to work again on the computer just as before. 2015: Thousands of people have visited my website and/or have bought my book in the past years. To overcome the language barrier I decided to translate everything into English and publish it for free on my website and as a book.

The Repetitive Strain Injury Handbook is a unique, user-friendly guide that is broken into two parts: (1) the 8-step recovery plan and (2) an RSI prevention guide. The 8-step plan moves RSI sufferers beyond the common denial of this ailment and into a diagnosis and treatment plan with a doctor. It provides: o Nutrition advice o An exercise program o Breathing tips o Traditional and alternative pain management suggestions o A holistic maintenance plan for long-term health The second section is filled with suggestions, stories, and tips for RSI sufferers that will help them live pain-free at home, at work, and in their social and intimate lives.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Repetition Strain Injury is the general term for a range of injuries to joints, tendons, muscles and nerves, caused by repetitive movements or overuse. It can start with minor aches and pains in the wrists, arms, shoulders or neck, which many people ignore. But if symptoms are not recognised and treated at an early stage, they can develop into serious injuries such as tenosynovitis or bursitis, causing victims a great deal of physical pain and all too often rendering them incapable of the work they have been trained and employed to do. RSI has been around for a long time, especially in manual jobs. But it's now on the increase among a new group - keyboard operators working on electronic typewriters and computers. Sex RSI sufferers tell their tales in this book. They write about the pain they have suffered; the harassment and discrimination they have experienced from employers, the DSS, and doctors; and the hardship they have suffered through loss of income and their livelihood.
