So many of the clients I see for chronic back pain have desk jobs, which is also a top contributing factor in chronic pain and discomfort of this sort. As a society, even when are not at work we still spend a lot of time sitting…driving, watching TV, personal computer use, etc. It’s hard to avoid sitting for long periods so it’s even more important to get up often and do some simple exercises to keep your blood moving and joints/muscles open. As the video above notes, even that hour in the gym isn’t enough to compensate for the hours and hours we spend emailing, Facebooking, and watching entire seasons of LOST.
