Are you Sitting Correctly?
Firstly, If sitting hurts, donÔÇÖt do it. If you must sit, avoid sitting in one position for more than 20- 30 minutes.
- Generally, your neck should remain straight with chin pulled back in relaxed position
- Shoulders should be draw back.
- Lower back shouldn’t be arched too far in either direction ( neutral spine as discussed with your chiropractor).
- Keep good posture while sitting at desk, reading and watching TV or driving.
Use a towel roll in the small of your back to support your low back or sit on a wedge cushion. This may help you maintain a neutral position and reduce discomfort while sitting.
Avoid sitting on the floor, soft couches or with legs crossed.
