Ergonomic advice:


There is no such thing as a perfect sitting posture but some are much worse than others.

In example 1 above you can see that this is a short person, feet off the floor and slumped forwards.

Example 2 shows a taller person leaning back. This position gives some rest to the back muscles whilst at the same time tending to compress the spine adversely.

Example 3 is the perceived ideal. It will do the least harm.

Example 4 is the worst postion. It causes the most spinal disc compression and puts strain on almost all of the spinal muscles.

  • sitting slumped to one side with the spine bent
  • keeping the knees, ankles, or arms crossed for long peroids.
  • dangling or not properly supporting the feet, get a footstool.
  • sitting for a long time in one position, vary your position. Sit and stand desks are great for this.
  • straining the neck downwards for long periods while looking at a monitor, telephone screen, or document
  • sitting in a position that does not fully support the back, especially the lower back
  • sitting for an extended period without taking a break

  • support the forearms on the desk, ensure that any chair arms do not prevent you getting close enough to the desk.
  • exercising for at least 30 minutes three times a week, focusing on a mix of stretching, strengthening, and aerobic activities
  • trying not to stay in any one position for too long, changing position or activity every hour
  • using a hands-free device for long calls
  • keeping any screens at eye or chest level when reading to reduce neck and upper back strain
  • sitting up straight and looking directly forward when reading mobile screens or monitors
  • lifting heavy objects by bending the legs rather than using the back
  • keeping heavy loads close to the body when lifting or carrying them
  • adjusting the seat when driving to support the back without straining and to allow the knees to bend
  • placing lumbar support cushions on seats, including car seats, thus reducing lower back strain
  • wearing comfortable, supportive, or orthopedic shoes when standing for long periods of time
  • walking with a straight spine and trying to avoid slumping or leaning
  • swinging the arms briskly and evenly when walking, jogging, or running
