Look after your 4 zones and they will look after you:
Prevent Back Tension
Don’t be one of the 48% of workers that suffer back pain at a desk. With a back support you can maintain the natural curve of your spine, retain core strength and avoid slouching. You could also try utilising a foot rest to relieve pressure on the lower back.
Avoid Wrist Pressure
Relieve pressure on your wrists by making use of a wrist rest for your mouse and keyboard. Your hands will maintain a more neutral position and avoid any tension caused by typing and scrolling.
Relieve Neck Strain
Maintain a good eye level whilst looking at a screen by utilising a monitor riser. This helps promote good posture as you’ll avoid slouching.
Reduce Inactivity
Incorporate movement into your day by taking regular breaks. Or try a sit stand desk that allows you to alternate between sitting and raising the whole desk to stand whilst working, taking the pressure off your back.
