    How to develop pain?

Because the amount of time spent sitting, gradually adjust your body in this position. This is done in a number of ways. The first, to adjust it, as the weight passes through the hips and pelvis. Then there is the way you can sit and mdash; Standing, twisted, or anything else. More importantly, what happens to the muscles while sitting is. For example, the hip flexor is tight in a shortened position and your butt will be weak and softer in a relaxed state.
This simple combination flexors and weak glutes tight hips called a "muscle imbalance". The result of these muscle imbalances postural dysfunctions of the pelvis and spine. These imbalances in both the spine and pelvis send in incorrect positions, the combination of a person somehow suffer from back pain, to be a person with a healthy and catastrophically devastating back.

    What can you do about it?
    What also must be understood that the imbalances are the result of what you do in your life every day and mdash; His training, meetings, their work and their own personal habits. I will not go to work to tell you to stop. But when fashion changes to be present at your desk?
    & Bull; Instead of sitting at your desk, try kneeling. I kneel at least 30 percent of the time I spend in my office. I have seen a small foam pad that puts me just high enough to write and monitor.
    & Bull; I sit on a therapy ball and mdash; and guess what? I do not feel like my mother told me. Move my hips in all directions, which means I've been working all day on the balance of my core.
    take action steps.

Because you have to work and because the quality of your life depends on your career, you should be able to make the most of their situation. I'll give you some tips to help in the day:

  • session
    When I sit, I sit with legs in all positions and different mdash; sometimes curved, sometimes behind me, sometimes I spread out before or even at my side, keeping the legs moving.
    Every 10 minutes, will my body to work in any form and mdash; and yes, that includes walk from my office. But more than that, I make a habit of always, when the phone rings. I like even if I have to read something, or if I arrange the stack of new things on my desk for greater productivity.
  • durable
    If your job requires that you stand all day, make sure you have high quality shoes and neutral template. Our body mechanics start when our feet touch the ground. It is preferable that the feet are the most neutral position.
    A negative body image that many people in the fall to keep moving their weight from one foot to the other. The problem is that most people finally decide that one leg more comfortable than the other, and that the leg more weight mostly. This will wreak havoc in the pelvis and spine damage. It is better to put the same on each foot to correct as much as possible, and to learn, if you find your weight change or too bent over the leg.
  • lifting
    A third obstacle to the work may be situations where a little more than 10 pounds need to lift repeatedly. Again, this is not the activity itself, which puts you at risk; is the inability to tolerate the weight of the load body. In other words, you should be able to anything you want to increase, and have difficulty with this. The problem occurs when the body muscle imbalances and postural disorders suffers, who spoke earlier, and mdash; and not even know.
    Therefore, if the object, and you are lifting injured, think like the straw that broke the camel. His body was already in a weakened state, and it was just to send in a painful condition last bit of stress.
  • stress
    It is an inevitable fact of life in the office, and may also play a role in tense muscles, so you can play more susceptible to injury. Stress also reduces your pain tolerance. In some cases, a difficult task to reduce stress at work, but deep breathing exercises to persuade the block on foot or even your frustrations with a trusted friend can help.

Finally, I want to go with this message: Even if work for your health can be dangerous if you back pain will be, remember that your thoughts and beliefs about your situation have a direct impact on their ability to recover and speed of recovery. It is therefore important to learn all you can about your condition and take action as soon as you can and hellip.
