3 Reasons How Standing Desks Conquer Neck and Back Pain
SHARE

If you’re a chiropractor living in the 21st century, one of the main inventions you can thank for providing you with so much work over the years is the internet.

Because so many office jobs now require people to spend significant amounts of time sitting on uncomfortable chairs at their desks, perched in front of a computer monitor or laptop, bad posture and the side effects associated with poor posture are more prevalent than ever before.

If you find yourself constantly dealing with a sore back as well as neck pain and discomfort, this could very well be down to bad posture caused by your office desk or chair. Nowadays, sitting is considered very harmful which is why standing desks are now proving to be so hugely popular in office environments.

But how do standing desks help improve your health and conquer neck and back pain? Let’s take a look, shall we?

What is a standing desk?

Adjustable standing desks are now commonplace in a lot of offices and working environments, due largely to the fact that they are so efficient at tackling the risks and ill-effects caused by prolonged spells of sitting.

Adjustable standing desks are specially created desks that are designed to allow users to alternate between periods of sitting down to work and standing up to work. These desks are typically electronic and can be adjusted by pressing a button.

The idea is not to spend all day standing up working, instead, the idea is to alternate between periods of sitting down and periods of standing up throughout the day.

What are the benefits of standing desks?

An adjustable standing desk such as the SOLOS Glass Standing Desk is ideal for people who are suffering from back and/or neck ache and generally poor posture. But why?

Here’s a look at how standing desks can conquer neck and back pain.

Here’s a look at how standing desks can conquer neck and back pain.

Standing desks help to align your spine

One key reason to invest in an electric standing desk is the fact that they have been found to help align your spine.

One common reason why people experience neck and/or back pain is that their spines are misaligned because of how they spend their days sitting and hunched forwards for hours on end.

With an electric standing desk, the user will spend prolonged periods standing up straight as they work, which in turn can help to realign their spines.

  1. If your spine is misaligned and is causing you pain and discomfort, a standing desk could prove to be the perfect solution.

Standing desks help to relieve back pain

It isn’t just spinal alignment issues that can cause people to experience back pain, it turns out that poor posture, in general, can also place an unnecessary load upon the spine.

Lower back pain is not uncommon and will affect between 1 in 4 and 1 in 5 adults at some point in their lives. One common reason for this is simply because sitting can place an increased load upon the base of the spine, resulting in lower back pain.

Using adjustable standing desks, however, is a great way to relieve lower back pain because when you are standing upright you are immediately relieving the pressure placed upon the spine and lower back caused by sitting down.

Put simply, the more time you spend stood upright, the less pressure will be placed upon your spine, which can only be a good thing

Standing desks promote weight management

The obesity epidemic is one which doctors and health officials are very serious about tackling as it is resulting in all manner of health issues and physical ailments plaguing the general public.

Life expectancies are declining, hypertension cases are on the up, and currently, heart disease and cardiovascular-related issues claim more lives every year than any other disease or illness. All of these are caused, at least in part, by obesity.

One reason we’re becoming obese is that we spend so much time each day sitting down. We wake up and sit down to eat breakfast. We then sit in our cars or on public transport and travel to work. We then spend the best part of 8 hours sat at our desk before driving home and spending our evenings sat on the couch. This type of sedentary lifestyle is not conducive to weight management.

One of the best things about an electric standing desk is the fact that standing helps to burn more calories than sitting, and also means you’re more likely to be slightly more active when working.
