Improve your posture
Poor posture is a major cause of neck pain,
especially in chronic neck pain with people who have a sedentary
job and lifestyle. For people who work at a desk visit the following
sites to improve desk ergonomic and working posture:
In summary:
- Keep your head on top of your shoulders,
not in front
- Keep your shoulders relaxed, not next to
your ears
- Maintain your forearm supported from time
to time
- Get up from the chair and stretch at least
twice in a working day
- Perform relaxation/deep breathing exercise
