Poor posture may contribute to illness such as back ache, poor circulation, poor digestion and more.

With prolonged use of display screen equipment maintaining good posture at all times may prove difficult.

To help combat the effects of poor posture physical exercising should be carried out throughout the day whilst seated.

Here are a few exercises to get you started;-

Breath in through nostrils so the chest expands. Hold and release (do this 5 times).

Feet flat on the floor push down on toes and so heel of foot raises in air (hold for 10 seconds).

Put legs out in front of you so thigh and calf muscles are straight. Toes may touch the modesty panel at the back of the desk (hold for 5 seconds).

Press the palms of your hands together. Raise your elbows so at 90-degrees to your chest (hold for 10 seconds).

Arch back and tilt head backwards. Hold for 5 seconds and forward until chin rests on chest (hold for 5 seconds).

Sitting upright on you're chair move feet up and down as if you are walking on the spot (do this for 30 seconds).

Repeat the above routine as often as required.

Feel free to adapt any of these exercises or introduce your own exercises to the routine.
