Abstract
A desk fittable arm rest which is used for alleviating bursitis, upper back and neck pain is designed to fit to a desk top at a work station. The arm rest comprises a rigid support frame, a cushion member atop the support frame and a cantilever attached from beneath and extending to a position forwardly of the frame. The frame has a forward overhang region spaced above the cantilever member to define a desk top fitting gap between the frame and the cantilever member. Through the use of the cantilever, the arm rest does not require anything in the way of a permanent attachment to affix it to the desk top and can be moved from one desk top to another.
