That cozy slouch in your chair might feel comfortable now, but your spine will beg to differ in the long run. When you slouch, you’re forcing your spine into an unnatural position. This can lead to chronic neck, back, and shoulder pain—and even more serious issues like herniated discs.
The problem is, you don’t feel the damage immediately. Over time, the effects build up, and suddenly, you’re dealing with pain that affects your everyday life.
What to do: Sit up straight with your shoulders back. Invest in ergonomic furniture that supports your posture and gives your body the relief it needs.
