I promised citations at the end of yesterday's post, so I guess I should keep my promise.
I am afraid some of the observations are my own, after hand trouble, back troubl and shoulder trouble, but here are some links if you would like to learn some more:
"Sign Language Can Cause Repetitive Motion Injury"
"Overuse Syndrome among Sign Language interpreters."
"Interpreter's wrist. Repetitive stress injury and carpal tunnel syndrome in sign language interpreters."
AVLIC’s Position On The Prevention of Repetitive Strain Injuries
Injuries and accidents at work - Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome
Hopefully this gets you started - or convinces you to take it easy! You are the only you the profession has... and we need every one of you.
