Office
“Sitting is the new smoking” has become a common slogan when referring to the unhealthy sedentary work life of an office employee. This slogan is shockingly accurate, as the hours we spend sitting per day often lead to identical health hazards of smoking. On average, the American worker sits for 5 hours and 41 minutes each day in the office. However, when combined with daily commute and other factors, the total time sitting could be as high as 15 hours per day! This problem is only getting worse, as the quantity of American office workers has been increasing over time. Therefore, more people are at risk of developing common desk job ailments such as obesity, diabetes, heart disease, neck pain, repetitive strain injuries (RSIs), carpal tunnel syndrome, and even life-threatening issues like cancer and arthritis. In order to fight back against these outcomes that plague several office workers each year, visit Relax The Back to build an ergonomic office workstation and improve your long-term health. By simply making a few furniture and accessory switches, you could prevent chronic and painful problems that haunt many office workers.
But even though you’ve found a chair that can eliminate back pain, the problems with weight gain and slow metabolism still exist through the time you have to spend sitting. This is why it’s important to get up and move around throughout the day. Take morning walks, leave your desk during lunch, and stretch regularly to keep your cardiovascular activity at a normal rate and avoid storing fat. In addition to these tips, you can even take sitting out of your day completely with standing desks. Standing desks offer a huge ergonomic benefit because they get you out of your chair and keep your body active while you work. Standing desks are not only good for your weight and biological health, but they are also good for your back. The more time you spend in a chair, the more time your back leans and rests (which only makes it weaker and more susceptible to injuries). With the ability to rotate between standing and sitting positions, the standing desk keeps your body alert and lets you work in whatever way is most efficient for you.
There are several ergonomic products that can reduce back pain, neck pain, and limb injuries while helping you fight off weight gain. Our wide selection of back cushions, footrests, keyboard trays, monitor arms, and lumbar supports can help every part of your body feel refreshed and healthy even at the very end of the day. To rid of those nagging work pains once and for all, visit Relax The Back to create your own personalized ergonomic office workstation.
