Office ladies with back pain can try standing while working

If you can maintain the correct posture, you can not only prevent the harm of lumbar sprains and hernias, but also solve the troubles of tight waist and swollen calves, and improve the quality of life. A website wrote an article to provide office ladies with a quick way to eliminate back pain.

First, change your sitting posture

The position of your sit bones is important if you want to sit comfortably. When many people sit down, their ischium tends to move forward, which in turn causes the pelvis to move backward, increasing the burden on the waist. Therefore, the correct way to sit is: move your buttocks back 3 cm when sitting down. This will correctly adjust the position of the pelvis, and only by standing up the pelvis can you maintain an upright and correct sitting posture.

If changing your sitting posture still cannot relieve your lower back pain, it is recommended that you stand up to work. Many people think that computer work is a job that requires sitting, but in fact, research results show that sitting for long periods of time increases the risk of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and low back pain is also an adverse consequence of maintaining a posture for a long time. If your back hurts from sitting, standing up to work is a good idea when you're doing something that doesn't require your full concentration, such as replying to emails. If you work at home, you can also choose to put the computer on the floor and do stretching exercises on the floor while working on the computer.

Generally speaking, low back pain is caused by maintaining poor posture for a long time. When working, office ladies have to stretch their shoulders and arms forward to reach the keyboard, which can easily lead to hunchback, forward bending pain, etc. Therefore, you might as well spend a minute or two doing some simple stretching exercises during your work breaks:

1. Cross your legs on a chair, sit upright like the Japanese, stretch your back muscles, clasp your hands behind you and stretch them, and do chest expansion exercises;

2. Keep sitting, stretch your legs and do forward bending exercises;

3. Maintain the cross-legged posture, first straighten your right leg, bend your body forward, and try to touch the right toes with both hands, and hold for 10-20 seconds; then straighten your left leg, continue to bend your body forward, and try to touch the left toes with both hands, and hold for 10-20 seconds. The same method can be repeated 2-3 times.

Just doing some simple stretching exercises can effectively stretch the muscles of the lower body and relieve back pain. So, you should try it, too.
