About Sarah Mahoney

Hello, my name is Sarah Mahoney and I'm a trained physiotherapist from the Otago School of Physiotherapy in Dunedin. I also have a Diploma in Public Health specialising in the area of Health Promotion from the University of Auckland in New Zealand where I've lived for the past 40 years with my three children.

My work in the field of Occupational Health Physiotherapy developed after 20 years of clinical practice and involvement in numerous areas both professionally and socially in the Auckland community.

The Good Use Microdesk™
I created the Microdesk™ because I saw a need  in the workplace.

Office staff were having to use the computer, and write, or work on papers at the same time. This caused reach and twist issues giving rise to upper limb pain and there was no product solution at that time. I needed to remove the reach and twist action associated with this problem.

The Microdesk began as a non adjustable, see-through, sloped writing surface that was placed over the rear section of the keyboard. 

But it has since evolved into an adjustable writing platform, light and easy to use with 3 models to choose from:

• The Regular Microdesk™ for a one level desk.
• The Step Microdesk™ for the keyboard-tray style desk or where the monitor is positioned low on an ordinary desk. 
• The Compact Microdesk™ for use with a laptop docking station or a confined desk area.
