Ergonomic Research by Medical University
Intensive working with a conventional computer mouse may result in complaints like tingling, pain
and /or obstruction of the blood flow to and from your arms and hands. Another symptom is a restricted
rotation of the head.
However excellent the functionality of the standard computer mouse - we all use it with great
ease - most of the time it is too small for the hand while its shape forces your hand and fingers in an
unnatural gripping position. It lacks comfort.
Therefore a group of mechanical engineers, working in close co-operation with the Medical Center of Erasmus
University in the Netherlands, have re-designed the mouse, and invented the ergonomic Handshoe Mouse.

Prevent
RSI and Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
This innovative, patented, truly
ergonomic computer mouse, has been field tested in large organizations for almost two years and has
shown to reduce the complaints as well as the risk of Repetitive
Strain Injury (RSI), Carpal Tunnel Syndrome and other Neck, Shoulder, Arms and Hands
(NSAH) complaints.
Instead of over-using your hand and wrist,
your arm will most of the time let the optical Handshoe Mouse float without any effort. The shape
allows for the hand to continuously rest on the mouse body in a relaxed
fashion, so there is no skin contact
between your hand and the desk.
As a result there is no skin irritation as caused by excessive rubbing when moving a
conventional mouse. Contrary to conventional computer mice you don't have to continuously lift (hover) the
fingers, to prevent accidental switching.
The mouse buttons are positioned in line with the fingers. Only
minor pressure is required to click the buttons. The thumb rest of the HandShoe Mouse allows for a relaxed
position and prevents excessive thumb action which can be harmful.
HandShoe
= "Glove"
In Dutch the word HandShoe means "Glove".
The Handshoe Mouse "fits like a glove" or, like some people say "feels like a saddle for the hand". The
HandShoe Mouse is available in three standard sizes (Small, Medium and Large) which are available in a
wireless and a wired version. So there is
a Handshoe Mouse for everyone! You can order your own, ergonomic mouse, the HandShoe Mouse here.
The HandShoe Mouse is developed, based on proper university research and measurements and
not on beliefs of individuals.

Thank you for your prompt and very helpful advice! I followed your instructions, and my wonderful
handshoemouse is working again. I am grateful to you because I can hardly use an ordinary mouse now. My
hand thanks you too. |

Already after one day’s work with this mouse I experienced a less numb feeling in my arm.
Before I got the HandshoeMouse I used to experience a strong prickling sensation. |

I just wanted to let you and the Hippus team know how much I loooooove using my new mouse. It is a
real delight -my hand feels great on it and I don´t get as tired.
Many of my colleagues at the office are also impressed -first by the very cool look, but when they
place their hand on it the response is always the same "WOW!"
Thanks for all of your work to develop this product and putting it in the market!
