INSIGHT

Neck Muscles Work Nonstop

  • Neck muscles constantly fight gravity and must support the heavy head all day.
  • That constant load makes neck muscles prone to fatigue, tension, and pain.
ADVICE

Ears Over Shoulders

  • Keep your ears aligned over your shoulders whether sitting or standing to protect your neck.
  • Use posture as a prevention tool to reduce neck strain from daily tasks.
ADVICE

Set Screens At Eye Level

  • Place your monitor at eye level and adjust desk and chair height to avoid forward head posture.
  • Use an adjustable setup and footrest as needed so both feet sit flat and your neck stays neutral.
