ErgoCentrix is dedicated to optimizing the way you interact with your workspace. Whether you’re at home, in the office, or on the factory floor, these consulting services are here to optimize your environment for peak performance and well-being.
I started this company because I too often see people in the outpatient clinic who come in with various musculoskeletal problems, in which there are factors related to their work that have likely led to their injury. My mission is to address these problems before they even become problems, by addressing the root causes that may be associated with someone’s workstation or the way in which they perform their work.
If this service is of interest to you, please email me with your:
- Name
- Type of work
- Problem you are experiencing
I currently only accept email communications at this time. I will do my best to respond within 2-3 business days.

WFH Office Ergonomic Assessments
I will assess your workspace for risk factors that may lead to pain. I use outcome measures that provide objective information that you can keep to refer to at your leisure. I will provide my recommendations at the end.

Office Ergonomic Assessment
The process is the same as an at-home ergonomic assessment. I will provide discounted rates for multiple assessments. I can also present on ergonomic principles to a group of employees.

Industrial Ergonomic Assessment
I will assess your workspace and how you move within the constraints of the environment and the tasks assigned to you. I will offer recommendations to you (the employee) and if appropriate, to the business (the employer)
About Me:

I graduated from Saint Catherine University with my Doctorate of Physical Therapy in 2020. Through my outpatient work experience, I have honed my skills in orthopedics and health promotion. In addition to my clinical background, I have pursued advanced certification in ergonomic assessments, earning the title of Certified Ergonomic Assessment Specialist (CEAS I). This has allowed me to be more comprehensive in my ergonomic assessments.
I am member of the American Physical Therapy Association (APTA) and an active participant in the Occupational Health Special Interest Group (OHSIG). I remain committed to advancements in the field of physical therapy and occupational health. I currently act as a liaison for the OHSIG in the state of Massachusetts and assist with content creation as the Vice Chair of the Public Relations Committee.
I am passionate about injury prevention. I firmly believe in proactive measures. It seems much more valuable to me to prevent injuries before they become debilitating, which is often when I begin my intervention in the outpatient clinic. I understand the effects pain and injury can have, not just on work, but on someone’s personal life as well.
In my free time, I enjoy exercise including exercise, golf, and soccer, as well as spending time outdoors hiking and fishing. I value quality time with my friends and family. I recognize them and their importance in providing me with a fulfilling life.
Reviews
Chris Lovell
COO at CL Tel, Clear Lake, IA
“During a monthly staff meeting, Jacob presented to the CL Tel team on ‘Workplace Injury Prevention.” Jacob was engaging, answered questions, and tailored his presentation to the telecommunications industry. Not only was the information he presented useful, but his delivery was strong and kept us all engaged. I would highly recommend Jacob to other businesses looking for guest speakers on injury prevention and similar topics.”

When Jacob visited my home office for an ergonomic assessment, I was immediately impressed by his depth of knowledge and keen eye for detail. He analyzed my desk setup and work habits, providing insightful recommendations on how to alleviate my neck, wrist, and shoulder pain by simply repositioning the items I already owned. Jacob also suggested a few chairs that could potentially ease my leg discomfort, showing his thorough preparation and understanding of my needs.
Additionally, Jacob tailored a series of desk exercises to reduce shoulder discomfort, a thoughtful addition. With his help, I can now focus on my work without the distraction of pain. Thank you to Jacob’s expertise and dedication!
