Coming soon.....

Stay Healthy in the Office – Exercise for Computer Users will be the most comprehensive book on the market about how computer use can affect us in the long run and how we can undo its harmful effects on our bodies. This is the most targeted book on how we can stay healthy working in offices and enjoy our careers. It has been written in a very simple language so that people who aren't medical professionals can educate their minds to maintain strong and healthy bodies, meet the demands of living in our modern world and enjoy life.

Stay Healthy in the Office – Exercise for Computer Users has been written by a successful City of London professional, who was progressively disabled by working intensely and for long-hours with computers, but rebuilt her health with a very targeted training saving her business career, which became even more rewarding after recovery. Kasia Verissimo has helped a good number of people after qualifying as an Advanced Professinal Fitness instructor. She has also realised that the only way to help many people stay healthy working in offices, and do it globally, is to publish this book.
