With the increased use of computer for work and entertainment, the number of people suffering pain in the neck and shoulder areas is on the rise.<\/p>\n

When sitting at a desk for several hours at work, and then later enjoying a couple of hours of games and\/or emails how we sit matters to our spinal cord. The wrong position causes subluxations of the bones and pain. There are other side-effects of improper posture, but one of the most important is the way it can hamper the way a person breathes. Many people who sit at a computer for hours, take in less oxygen causing other complications such as headaches and tiredness.<\/p>\n

Here are some ways you can relieve the pain in your neck and improve your overall health while still earning a living working on your computer:<\/p>\n

1. Check with your chiropractor to be sure the pain you’re enduring is caused by subluxations of your spine.<\/p>\n

2. After working at your computer for an hour, take a break. This can be as simple as doing a few stretching exercises prescribed for you by your chiropractor \u2013 you want each\u00a0 movement to propel\u00a0 you toward healing.<\/p>\n

3. Remember to breathe. One way to do this is to place a sticky note in your work area that you check often, with the word “breathe,” written on it. If you drink at your desk, when you reach for your beverage, take a couple of deep, cleansing breaths before, or after you take a drink.<\/p>\n

4. Ask your chiropractor for a long-term plan of action. If you spend hours working on a computer, you need to factor chiropractic care into your health regimen. With less pain, you will experience more personal and professional gain.<\/p>\n
