If your office chair is your home for most of the work day, your posture in that chair becomes extremely important. Over time, poor postural habits can result in back pain, neck pain and wrist pain just to name a few.

Rehab SECRETS to avoid injury from sedentary desk jobs are:

1. Make sure you have a user-friendly workstation by adjusting the office chair, computer and desk positioning.
2. Modify your sitting posture in your office chair. Sit back in your office chair and keep your head and neck upright.
3. Take stretching breaks and walking breaks every 1-2 hours if sitting in an office chair for long periods of time.
4. Stretching should not increase pain. Stretch in a pain-free range.
5. If you have questions or are interested in having your workplace assessed, contact Community Rehab Physical Therapy.
