What Ergonomic Upgrades Can I Make to My Workspace?

Do you suffer from chronic neck pain due to poor posture?

Do you feel like your office space could be more comfortable?

Does your workspace quite literally leave you in a slump? Spending eight or more hours a day with your shoulders hunched at your desk can lead to severe back and neck pain later in life. Thankfully, we have all kinds of modern technology to combat this!

Check out these upgrades to add to your office to ensure a pain-free work day:

Standing Desk

Excessive sedentary time often leads to a spike in blood sugar levels, elevated risk of heart disease and chronic back pain.

Studies show that those who utilize standing desks have lower feelings of stress and fatigue and improved mood and energy levels.

Chair with Lumbar Support

Ergonomic office chairs are designed to follow the natural curvature of your spine which offers lumbar support. This will improve your posture and save you from excruciating back and neck pain.

Footrests

Ergonomic footrests are beneficial for improving blood flow and circulation in the legs during long periods of time sitting. Footrests help in maintaining a neutral stance while seated, or can aid in pelvic positional unloading which helps distribute weight in a more manageable way and reduces fatigue.
