The control and storage unit are programmable to trigger, at predefined or random moments, micro movements of the forearm supports of short duration, less than two seconds, and of small angular amplitude, less than 2° and/or of linear amplitude, less than 5 mm. The workstation further includes a user interface connected to the control and storage unit, to trigger other micro movements, and/or to modify the settings.
