The Fresh-Start Desk Setup
If you spend hours at a desk, small ergonomic improvements can dramatically reduce strain on your spine, neck, and shoulders. January is perfect for refreshing your workspace.
Start with these adjustments: position your monitor at arm’s length with the top at or slightly below eye level. Keep your keyboard close so elbows stay near your body at 90 degrees. Adjust your chair so feet rest flat and thighs are parallel to the floor. Use lumbar support to maintain your lower back’s natural curve.
Did you know that for every inch your neck shifts forward and out of proper posture, the strain on your spine doubles? If you use a laptop regularly, add an external keyboard and raise the screen to eye-level.
Remember the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look 20 feet away for 20 seconds and shift position. Need personalized advice? We’re happy to discuss your setup!
