It seems that wrist problems only started for most people with the advent of the computer. Because the keyboard only needs a soft touch to respond most people tend to rest their wrists on the desk which puts their fingers at a higher level and strains their wrists.

As keyplyr states there is no such complaint with piano players because their wrists are in line with their hand and not below.

All keyboard users should type while holding their hands in the same position as a piano player. That's what I have done for 40+ years and never had strain problems.
