When most people think of back pain caused by work, they imagine manual labor – a physically demanding job that have you lifting heavy objects. While that type of work can cause back pain, office work can be just as painful. In this guide, our team at Advanced Physical Medicine of Yorkville shares some of the most important steps you can take to prevent back pain in the office.
As long as a day might feel, you must always use good posture. This means you:
It can be incredibly difficult to practice good posture when your workspace doesn’t support it. However, you can change it with the following steps:
It’s much easier to practice good posture when your muscles can help hold your spine upright. Working out regularly and stretching each day can go a long way in preventing or reducing back pain.
Holding your phone between your head and shoulder is almost guaranteed to lead to neck and back pain. Try using the speaker or a headset instead.
Routine chiropractic care can help eliminate the back pain you currently suffer from. However, it can also prevent back pain in the future.
