RSI and Overuse Injury Association of the ACT online
We aim to help you cope with your RSI or overuse injury by providing information on every aspect of the condition, including treatments, compensation and the law, the latest medical research and managing everyday life.
We are a non-profit organisation based in the ACT dedicated to supporting people in Australia with repetitive strain injuries (RSI) or occupational overuse syndrome (OOS).
Repetitive strain injuries, like tendinitis, carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and epicondylitis (tennis elbow) are very common in Australia today, and affect people in many occupations, including computer professionals, hairdressers, butchers, assembly-line workers, painters and other trades.
