I guess i don't carry stress' in my life the same at 44 years young. a session to work trhough some shorts i let my body breath the vitalogy of my recovery . I felt new within. thank you
Thanks a bunch! I might actually remember leaving my head upright now (normally I sit up straight and then five minutes later, catch myself with a forward head again...) xD
Thank you. The exercises are wonderful. The head pushed forward and the armest moving backward exercise has done wonders for me. I will remember to do this throughput my day.
I suspect a significant number of "carpal tunnel syndrome" cases are actually "poor neck and shoulder posture". In the US, orthopedic surgeons hear "tingling in hands" and immediately jump to CTS. The reality is that Thoracic Outlet Syndrome and related disorders are much more common than they would like to admit and cause virtually identical symptoms as CTS. There are some minute differences you can look for if you suspect you have one of these disorders, but ultimately if your hand is tingling/numb, it's likely a pinched nerve *somewhere* between your cervical spine (neck) and the hand itself. It can be in the neck, shoulders, elbows, forearms, or the wrist.
All the chairs I want to buy for ergonomic reasons are over $300?! Like, seriously you have to be rich to be able to live a healthy life. All the other chairs below 300 are trash.
I am not rich but I bought an ergonomic chair for 430€ and a table for 350€ approx. Not at once both but one by one. Good investment if your work is mostly in front of pc
I am using IKEA Marcus chair since 2016. It is approx. 200 €. It has 10 years warranty. The best investment ever. Completely rest your head while working all day. Zero fatigue. All clever software companies are equipping their staff with Marcus' as I saw in years. Sometimes I am trying other fancy looking boss chairs with head rests, but their head rests are not designed well and simply not working not supporting any weight of your head. And it is a no. When you bought a chair, it is usually not easy for you to change it for a long time. So do your research well. Think it like a car driver seat, it has a simple design, no need to adjust the headrest moment to moment, just touch and rest your head while driving, it is taking the whole stress of driving if your seat is inclined as necessary as it should be. That's why rally car seats are rigid and has no back incline adjustments.
Ridiculous that you have to mod the chair just to provide useful neck support. Why would they not design them this way? You had one job, neck support...
On another channel a posture therapist suggests that we should sit only with the lower back supported by the chair for good posture. However I can't bring myself to do this for long periods because I like resting my back. I have a herman miller chair so very ergonomic. Would you agree with him that your shoulders shouldn't touch the chair back or do you have a different opinion?
Interesting question. Actually I like the idea of your shoulders touching your chair because it gives you a point of reference of where your shoulders are sitting. If your shoulders aren't touching the chair you've probably got forward/rounded shoulders. But if they're touching the chair, you know that they're back. (This is assuming the chair doesn't feel like it's pushing your shoulders forward.)
My headrest seems to go forward enough (I will check this with a mirror tomorrow). I never realized that the headrest can be used for a point of reference. My head wants to go forward.
I don't think this will work for me as I am hunching over a tablet screen to do illustration work...I also keep leaning on the arm rest causing pain that side...I'm a mess! 😢
Cem, ben de öyle dedim. Muhteşem bir sandalye değil mi? İkinci kademede çok hafif yatık, kendini bırak, kafanı yasla, saatlerce otur çalış. Arada üçüncü kademeye getir, neredeyse yatarak daha da dinlenerek çalış. Yada birinci kademede dimdik ama süper rahat otur.

Thanks so much!
Thank you for this!!! I’ve been trying to rehabilitate after whiplash 7 years ago. I’m struggling taking a class with desk/chair/bed desk, etc!
Thank you. The exercises are wonderful. The head pushed forward and the armest moving backward exercise has done wonders for me. I will remember to do this throughput my day.
Great Videos! Simple, Short, Understandable!
Thanks for watching!

Yes, exactly. Joint dysfunction at the base of the neck causes much more finger symptoms IM O.
Thank you so much! 😊😊
My pleaseure!

@@DemirAydemir interesting! Just checked it - here the price of this chair is 169€. Will check in the shop how comfortable it is.

Oh !!, amazing !!

No worries!
❤God bless You❤ Greetings from Vienna 👍👏👍👏👋👋👋
Hello! 👋 Thank you!
Wonderful, thank u!
👍👍👍
My headrest seems to go forward enough (I will check this with a mirror tomorrow). I never realized that the headrest can be used for a point of reference. My head wants to go forward.
Great if your headrest can move forward enough. Get someone to take a photo from the side to check your position
Any recommendations for a chair?
I work from home and am looking for a new home office set up
I'm trying a few at the moment, and haven't come across any that I love yet. I'll post something when I do
fantastic, appreciate it!@@BodyFixExercises
IKEA Marcus
I don't think this will work for me as I am hunching over a tablet screen to do illustration work...I also keep leaning on the arm rest causing pain that side...I'm a mess! 😢
Can you incline the tablet to minimise how far the head has to come forward?
@BodyFixExercises hi thanks yeah it does, it's not flat on the table but I still end up achey.
Just bought a standing desk. Lifted it and never came back to sitting. Standing on a comfy yoga mat )
👍 can be a great option. Easier to move around a bit
Or Ikea Markus
