Ergonome Incoporated is a privately held New York corporation specializing in computer ergonomics. It was formed in October, 1993, for the purposes of packaging and marketing an ergonomics methodology for preventing carpal tunnel syndrome (cts), rsi, cumulative trauma disorder (ctd), dequervain's syndrome, musculoskeletal disorder (msd), repetitive strain injury, occupational overuse syndrome, keyboarding injuries, computer injuries, and other repetitive stress injuries (rsi) caused by the use of incorrect hand and finger positions and motions at the computer keyboard. This keyboarding ergonomics or computer ergonomics methodology exists in software and print form, is proprietary to the Company, and it remains the first and only such methodology in existence.

This methodology was developed over a ten-year period by Stephanie Brown, an internationally-known concert pianist, and is equally applicable as prevention for those at risk and as retraining for the already injured. It was first published by the Company in February, 1994, as a 100-page book with 88 photographs called “Preventing Computer Injury: The HAND Book”, and since its publication, it has received virtually unanimous acclaim from medical, governmental, industry, and occupational health and safety experts as the definitive text on correct keyboard use. In 1995, the Company created a software version of “The HAND Book” called “KeyMoves” — an exciting, engaging, user-friendly tutorial program with 100 color screens. "KeyMoves" is an online ergonomics training program which is key in repetitive stress injury (rsi) prevention and the prevention of tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome (cts), occupational overuse syndrome, dequervain's syndrome, repetitive strain injuries (rsi), cumulative trauma disorder (ctd), musculoskeletal disorder (msd), keyboarding injuries, computer injuries, and other repetitive stress injuries, and the key to occupational health safety, workplace safety, risk management and teaches and applies ergonomic principles throughout the software program.

The original KeyMoves ergonomic software, versions 1.0 and 2.x, became the foundation for the full KeyMoves Training Program, version 3.5, which was piloted at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories in 1999-2000 and released for Internet distribution in January, 2001. The Program has undergone several upgrades since then, leading to Version 3.9, as shown on this free site, and Version 4.0, which is distributed to Ergonome's commercial customers.
