Simple tips for home office health

The Chiro from The Chiro - Upper Hutt

After coming out of lockdown, we have noticed a lot of our practice members continuing to work from home. 🤓
Postural stress is a common complaint we are hearing, as people are working from their counter tops or dining room tables.
We have a few tips to help your not so ideal home setup to be as ergonomic as possible to ensure we are supporting your posture and spinal health while you work from home. 👍

Some common complaints we are hearing include:
Shoulder tension
Headaches
Eye strain
Tight upper back muscles
Neck pain
Tight hip flexors

Check out our blog on more information on how you can set up your workstation to best avoid these postural stressors - thechiro.co.nz...

This can be true even if the life changes are a good thing, such as a move to somewhere you will love to live.

Once you understand why you have this feeling, you can reframe it as creating a new environment that will support your present life while reminding you of your best experiences.
