The right chair can make a big difference to your lower back
On July 07, 2009 in Uncategorized
Most chairs that you find in homes, offices and restaurants have as little backing as a bikini, and are definitely not the type from which you’ll gain any back pain relief. Either there is enough room between the slats for a small child to crawl through or there is nothing but air at the point where the small of your back is yearning to make contact.
And, as if all this weren’t bad enough, most chair backs aren’t straight either. They are almost as curved as the inside of a barrel, or they tilt back just enough so that you’re neither reclining nor able to sit up straight.
Nevertheless, for optimum lower back pain relief, think straight and insist on adequate support when you shop for your own chair. Make sure the back of the chair extends down to, or almost to, the seat. Also see to it that the back of the chair is at least high enough to make contact with your head, so that it can adequately support your upper back and neck.
