Choose Ergonomic Chairs to Prevent Body Fatigue While Working

Dream - The shape and features of the chair used during work or other activities greatly affect body posture.

A chair with the wrong shape and features can cause your posture to slouch and lead to various types of ailments such as back pain.

Choose a chair that can maintain an ideal body posture when sitting. Ideally, the elbows and knees should form a 90-degree angle. The body should be upright, and make sure the spine does not curve when leaning against the chair.

Use Ergonomic Chairs

Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation Specialist, Edbert Wreksoatmodjo, suggests using ergonomic chairs that have several features to adjust to your body shape.

Use chairs that can be adjusted in height. If necessary, the armrests can rotate 360 degrees and be adjusted in height to suit your body shape.

Make sure that when sitting, your back can perfectly lean against the chair and there is no empty space left, so that you won't easily get tired as the chair supports your entire body.

Edbert also suggests choosing a chair with an adjustable headrest height, so that it can be placed behind the neck and make you more comfortable while working, and prevent back pain.
