Are You Sitting Correctly?
Six out of ten of us will suffer from back pain at some point in our lives.
The most common cause of back pain is due to sitting. The muscles supporting our back become tired and relaxed causing us to slouch.
This leads to overstretching of the muscles and ligaments and the compression of our discs. The secret of sitting correctly is to encourage the spine to lengthen into its neutral balanced position. This means the weight is evenly distributed across the discs and there is balance in the supporting musculature.
