"Ergonomic training is the missing link
in computer education –
and CyberStretch is the solution to the problem."

What is CyberStretch?
CyberStretch by Jazzercise is a FREE stretching program for
computer users at home, on the job, or at school.
This innovative software program guides you through energizing stretch breaks
in an easy-to-use interactive screensaver format to help reduce tension and
the risk of repetitive stress injuries. The screensaver format reminds you
to do CyberStretch before starting work on a computer,
as well as throughout the day.
CyberStretch consists of
- 26 body-specific, timed stretches (in full color illustrations),
- 26 Action Tips (vision and relaxation breaks, posture checks and fitness
tips),
- More than 200 "Did You Know..." fitness and healthy lifestyle
facts,
- An Activity Log that tracks usage, and
- An Ergonomics section.
Access the Interactive Menu by holding down "SHIFT" key. This
allows you to select any individual stretch or Action Tip, or choose any
one of the eight stretch groupings to perform stretches that work specific
parts of the body (head & neck, hands & wrists, etc.). It also accesses
the Ergonomics and Activity Log sections.

Caution: We suggest anyone with a pre-existing RSI condition
(such as carpal tunnel syndrome) check with his/her physician before
using CyberStretch. This programs is designed to aid in reducing the
risk of RSI - not to cure it. Some of the stretches could exacerbate
a user's symptoms if he/she already have an RSI.
