Avoid Neck Pain at Your Computer

Question:

I desperately need effective advices how to avoid neck pain from the computer?
Answer:

Your neck pain could be manifesting itself in several of different ways - from nutritional, physical to postural.
Touching on posture for a moment, when you are sitting improperly, you'll notice you're leaning forward to see the screen, which strains the neck as well as leaning on the desk, causing strain on the shoulders and wrists.

Good posture when sitting at the computer starts with perfect vertical balance, with the computer screen at eye level. Sitting with your back against the chair and using the arm rests as support.
Proper posture will massively help you find neck pain relief.

Try to get up and move around to keep the blood flowing (this will reduce some acidic build up and reduce inflamation).

Among a number of possible issues, consider dehydration as a possible contributor to your neck pain as well.

Just a few thoughts.

To a future of pain-free living,

Charlie
