Repetitive strain injury (RSI) is also known as occupational overuse syndrome or work related upper limb disorder. It results from the overuse of a tool i.e. computer keyboard, guitar, factory machinery and construction work tools. Repetitive strain injury, RSI, is most commonly seen in assembly line workers and computer workers.

In 2006 it was said that half a million people suffered from some form of repetitive strain injury. The intensive use of keyboards and other technology as well as posture related health problems are ever growing due to the nature of jobs.

Repetitive strain injury can be treated through pain killers, heat/cold packs and the use of supports or splints. These treatments aim to help pain and to enable strength and mobility to return.
