Choosing an ergonomic keyboard
The keyboard decides the posture of wrists and shoulders for most of the day: straight wrists and open shoulders are the goal.
- Keyboard format: full split, fixed split, curved or wave, each with its real adaptation curve.
- Dominant hand: a real left-handed version or an ambidextrous design, not "suitable for both".
- Connection: wireless for a clear desk, wired if you do not want to depend on a battery.
Frequently asked questions
Fixed split or full split?
From gentle split to full split. The further apart the two halves, the better for the shoulder and the longer it takes to get your speed back: that is the trade-off to decide before buying.
How long until you type fast again?
With a curved or wave keyboard, a few days. With a full split, one to three weeks, because it forces you to type each key with the correct hand. Wrist and shoulder posture improves from day one.
The calculations are indicative and educational: they do not replace a professional assessment if you have persistent pain.
