Correct Seating Posture

The Benefits Of Sitting Propery

Sitting properly can avoid discomfort and prevent symptoms, such as lower back pain, neck tension, and muscle fatigue, from developing.

Many people suffer from pain and back problems due to incorrect posture whilst sitting at a desk. For correct posture it is important that the feet are supported off the ground, and that the legs are keep bent at an angle of less the 90 degrees. Whilst working at a computer it is also important that the eyes are level with the computer to avoid bending the neck and tilting the head downwards, and that the arms are are not raised to an uncomfortable level on the desk. Rather the arms should be kept with the elbows by the side and bent at an angle of approximately 90 degrees.

It’s important to choose seating that supports healthy posture. Good posture helps to keep the natural curves of the spine relaxed and ready to absorb and distribute the stress encountered during rest and activity. When the spine and body are properly supported, the back muscles, ligaments and discs are not strained.
