Forgot to mention:

WorkRave is freeware and comes with all the features of expensive counterparts.

I have a chronic condition of tendovaginitis, and I can attest that a program called workrave

does the trick.
Be sure to heed the “microbreaks” when they pop up.

Hope it all goes well,

travelmate machines from acer. their customer support sucks, and there are better machines spec-wise, but they have a curve to the keyboards which doesn’t entirely suck.

Sometimes using a laptop lap desk helps provide ergonomic support.

The only thing that has worked for me is drastically limited laptop use. I don’t know what your requirements are, but if I needed to use a laptop long term I would plug in an ergonomic keyboard.

For the past 8 or 9 months I’ve been using an Adesso ergonomic keyboard with touchpad and its made a huge difference, although my hands still can have problems if I do too much repetative work.
