Why reclining at work can cause neck pain - even on an ergonomic chair! Correct your posture...

Several studies have shown that leaning backwards can relieve the pressure on the lower back tissues, incl. on the intervertebral discs. But scientific studies on posture have to be read carefully, because what happens in a lab cannot always be taken to the office, or when you are working from home.

In this video, I will show you
- the difference between slouching and leaning back (or reclining)
- why you need a high backrest and a headrest on your ergonomic office chair if you have a reclined posture
- why leaning back is not compatible with working on your computer, and why it can cause neck pain, upper back pain, mid back pain and lower back pain.

There are many tempting shortcuts to correct your posture and relieve pain... posture correction is fine arts: you always need expert advice on ergonomics and biomechanics if you want to achieve durable results and relieve the pain!
