What Chiropractic Patients Need to Know About Sitting While Working

February 28, 2018/0 Comments/in Chiropractic Blog /by Dr. Kent Ferguson

Hi, there I’m going to share with you 2 harmful results on a person’s body as a result of sitting at work.(click to watch video)

Human bodies were not built to sit for long periods of time. Our twenty-first century workplace — working behind a desk, typing on the computer, endless video conferences — unfortunately stacks against us to keep us.

There are four harmful results on a person that stem from sitting at work.

  1. SITTING FOR MANY HOURS EACH DAY TAKES A TOLL ON OUR BACKS.

Working at a desk for many hours a day causes employees to stay in one position for an extended length of time. This puts a great deal of pressure on their backs. Over time, painful back problems can develop and, if left untreated, continue to worsen.

  1. SITTING ALSO TAKES A TOLL ON OUR WAISTLINE.

Obesity is at an all time high in Canada and at least a good chunk of the reason is our sedentary lifestyle. Sitting for a long period (8 or more hours a day) decreases our metabolism, causing us to burn fewer calories. The time at our desks can end up packing on the pounds.
