Whether your job entails sitting for hours at a computer or heavy manual labor it can take a toll on your back. Back Pain can be caused by overworked muscles, tension from stress or improper posture for long periods of time. So no matter why your back hurts it will always indicate that something needs to be done to improve the health and well-being of your body. Taking care of you can start with simple things such as exercise and proper back support while working or sitting. Exercise & Better Posture Simply by holding yourself upright in a good posture can greatly diminish back pain and improve the way you act, feel and look. Good posture starts by using and supporting correct muscles through regular exercise and a balanced stance when standing or sitting. Doing this will help to support your bodies weight evenly which will lesson stress to overworked muscles. Any kind of consistent exercise from yoga to cardio to weight lifting will be able to strengthen and support these muscles. This can not only make you feel better, but also keep a slim and trim figure. Support from the Back If from injury or for any other reason you may need further back support. Wearing a back brace or using a chair in the office that promotes good support will help to reduce or eliminate back pain while doing those activities that may otherwise irritate a sore back. It is also very helpful to have a good quality sleep on a supportive mattress. Sleeping on an old, swayback mattress can put strain on already sore muscles causing less restful sleep which may result in more slouching and chances for accidents at work the next day. With good exercise and posture along with back support from a quality mattress you may benefit from overall better health.
