While office jobs aren't physically demanding, sitting for long periods can lead to back pain. Sedentary work can be tough on your back, but thankfully, there are steps you can take to reduce the strain on your back. Our team at Whole Health Chiropractic Center in Issaquah can treat back pain and provide chiropractic care for the entire family.

How to Minimize Back Pain In the Office

Ideally, you want to sit in an ergonomic chair while you're at work. You may not be able to upgrade your chair, but you can improve your current chair with a few adjustments. Take the time to adjust the height of your chair so that your resting eye level is where it needs to be while you're working. Adjust the back of your chair and your armrests for extra comfort.

Take occasional breaks throughout your work day. Taking a minute or two to stretch can help reduce the tension in your back. While you're in your chair, try to maintain a good posture. Sit as close to your desk as you can, keeping your head upright.

Relieve Pain with Chiropractic Care

The right strategies can help you prevent back pain at work, but if you're already dealing with back pain, visiting a chiropractor can help. Chiropractors identify and treat the issues that cause pain. Instead of masking your symptoms, you will be able to get real relief.

Not only can a chiropractor help you deal with the pain from sitting all day at the office, but we can help you treat other types of pain as well. If you have an auto accident injury that you haven't recovered from, or if you're dealing with aches that you can't seem to explain, make an appointment so that you can get professional care.
