Healthy Desk Posture | Ergonomic Tips | Humanscale

It’s not difficult to find a study or statistic to show that sitting is bad for you. It’s linked to obesity, diabetes, heart disease, a whole host of other medical problems and overall shorter lifespans.

Did you know that you can’t counteract the effects of sitting by visiting the gym at the end of the day? Though being active reduces health risks, it doesn’t completely remove the damage that sitting can cause.

An increasing number of companies are taking a proactive approach, providing alternatives to the standard office desk setup. Standing desks and even treadmill desks are becoming more commonplace. To prevent chronic neck and back pain and other health issues associated with desk work, it’s important to practice better work ergonomics. The term ergonomics generally refers to the practice of fitting your job to your body. This means tailoring not only your desk and computer equipment to your body but your entire range of working habits as well.

Below are some good posture tips so that you can reduce pain and improve total body health.

10 ERGO Tips To Do At Your Desk & Avoid Fatigue

Prolonged Sitting & use of a computer keyboard and/or mouse can lead to frequent muscle aches and nerve pain unless a few guidelines are followed. Follow these quick and easy Office ergonomics tips to decrease fatigue, discomfort and physical stress while also increasing comfort and productivity while working.

• Are you on the phone for more than two hours per day? Try using a headset to avoid cradling your phone and free both of your hands. 

• Instead of sitting up straight, lean back in your chair & adjust in your Monitor arms to dramatically increase long-term comfort through the upper and lower back. 

• Do you find yourself shrugging your shoulders to reach your keyboard? Install a keyboard tray to improve typing posture and long-term comfort.
