We like to answer questions from some of our readers and today we are going to address this question, “Dr. Riley, I sit at a desk all day and frequently suffer from low back and neck pain, with no apparent cause. What are some things I can do to manage my symptoms?”
I’ve stated before that we live in a forward world; from the time we get up and sit at the breakfast table with arms out in front of us and heads down, to getting in our cars and sitting with arms in front of us, to sitting at a desk at work for eight hours a day, in front of the computer or on the phone. All of this involves static or sedentary type positions and can result in what I refer to as “cumulative trauma.”
