While it’s hardly a great revelation that too much technology use can wreck havoc on our spines, many of us tend to carry on being absorbed in our gadgets without giving a second thought to our back health. So to ensure you use your devices safely, our team at Pure Chiropractic in Staines has the following advice:
When you are using technology…
- Always focus on your posture. Don’t slouch over your phone or computer and remember to change positions regularly.
- When you’re using a PC or laptop, make sure you sit in a chair that provides adequate support for your spine. Your shoulders, hips and knees should face the same direction and your feet should rest flat on the floor.
- To avoid unnecessary strain on your back, sit with your head directly over your body instead of hunching it forwards.
Put these tips into practice when using technology. They could just save you from years of agonising back pain.
