I use a “Headmaster” to move my mouse. It has a sip/puff switch that I use to click. I wear the headmaster just like headphones, see picture. To type I use a Onscreen Keyboard. More Information below. This is what I’ve used for four years now. I’m a graphic designer and use the computer a lot.

There are a few products to choose from, here is a few of my favs.

  1. you should try usig you neck muscle more. have your table lifted to a height you can poke at key with a mouth stick,you might like it. improving your mobility will be a natural progress without you focusing on therapy for your neck. also you will have to sit in front of your computer because of your head gear.
