Standing At Your Desk...

Many people tell me how they only have pain when they get up from a seated position or are seated to begin with. This can be a very low cost way that helps you or your employees. So many I talk too want to rush into a surgery. This will often take a long time to heal, not to mention, cost more than you anticipate. The average back surgery cost tens of thousands and isn't always fully covered. And don't forget, the results aren't always stellar either...

Now they have standing desk stations. Yes, you can attach it to your current desk and stand to work comfortably. This also works well for someone who must move often. No more getting up and down; you are already ready to go. The only negative is if you were planning to nap at work. It's often hard to sleep standing up!

You can even walk on a treadmill and work (Isn't for me) or stand on a balance board. Just as long as your productivity doesn't change...

Motion Is Life!

Yes, you heard it right. This is a very true statement. Every joint in the body can move, without it there's a problem.

How can we lose that motion? One big one is arthritis. The joints build up degeneration in the form of bone. With this buildup comes reduced motion.

To some extent there is a double edge sword. If you don't move, arthritis more easily builds up. If you have bad motion then arthritis can build up...

In other words we need to exercise, but do it with proper motion and good posture. Not just the joints but other parts of the body work better when we have motion. Blood flows, nutrients flow, waste gets removed, all the way down to the cellular level.
