Millions of us spend the hours on end hunched over a computer keyboard
Little wonder that back pain and other musculoskeletal disorders are on the increase, or that companies are increasingly worried about the threat of major compensation claims as computer workers develop serious, career-affecting complaints
Fortunately most of us will only experience fairly minor aches and pains through prolonger computer use. But why should we put up with even small amounts of discomfort when the solution is so obvious and widely-known - good posture!
We all know (or can easily be taught) how we should sit at a computer. So why, when you look around a typical office, do so few of us sit well?
PostureMinder has been developed to help computer users feel better by gradually helping them to improve their posture
Even if you've not experienced back pain to-date, it's never too soon to start looking after your spine. If you sit better and adopt healthy working habits, you'll reduce fatigue feel better at the end of the working day. The evidence suggests that you'll also perform better and get more done, whilst the long term benefits of good posture and healthy habits are well documented
