Worktime Tips for the Healthiest Back

By Genevieve Cunningham

Work is an essential part of life. It, quite obviously, helps us pay the bills and live a good life, but it also gives us personal satisfaction and fulfillment. Without it, we often suffer financially, mentally, and emotionally. But one of the hard parts about work is that it can cause a bit of pain -- literally -- especially in the back and neck. If you’ve noticed a bit of pain caused by the demands of work, take a look at these tips for keeping yourself healthy and pain-free.

Spruce Up Your Workspace

Your workspace should be designed and modified with health in mind. The way in which you hold and rest your body all day makes a huge impact on the way that you feel. Make sure that you have a desk and chair that provide both support and comfort. If you don’t, ask your employer to make changes in this area. It can also help to add low back supports, wrist supports, and keep small pillows in the office. These items will help you change positions, provide comfort and support, and keep the spine in an optimal position to remain healthy and pain-free.

Get in Some Exercise

This probably won’t be done at the office (unless there’s an office gym), but it can make a serious impact on your overall health if you maintain an exercise routine. Get involved in a workout that feels good. This might be different for everyone. Some enjoy the sound and feeling of pounding the pavement with a run. Others enjoy the slow and methodical nature of yoga. Find something that works for you, and add it to your normal routine. This will strengthen the back, reduce overall pain, and keep you feeling better than ever, both on the clock and off.

Add Chiropractic Care to the Routine

Chiropractic care is one of the best ways to encourage a healthier back and body as a whole. Chiropractors may be able to remove restrictions from the vertebrae of the spine, thus reducing pain and enhancing basic flexibility. For work-related pain, regular trips to the clinic can negate the side effects of inactivity at work, and then help to prevent pain from returning in the future. Regular patients may also experience a boost in the immune system, better sleep, fewer headaches, and a wealth of other benefits. When it comes to staying healthy at work (or home!), receiving chiropractic care is a no-brainer.
