Common pain pressure points caused by sitting incorrectly or using the wrong chair TENSION RELIEF AREA: LEGS Long term pressure relief with our extra cushioned seats. Support for the whole of your thighs, without restricting blood supply, the seat length is adjustable to your own requirements. A correct length seat will allow you to sit right back in the seat and benefit from the support of the backrest, removing tension and pressure build up. TENSION RELIEF AREA: LOWER BACK The small of your back is cradled in exactly the right place with our inflatable, height adjustable lumbar support that is integrated into the backrest. Base of spine is supported to further keep the back in a healthy S shape. TENSION RELIEF AREA: HIPS Relieve pressure from your hips with our independently adjustable seat and backrest.

10 TOP ERGONOMIC WORKSTATION TIPS FOR HEALTHIER POSTURE, BACK VITALITY AND GENERAL WELLBEING. DRINK PLENTY OF WATER. Have a water bottle nearby so you can monitor how much you drink during the day. On average, you should drink around 1.2 litres of fluid every day. TAKE REGULAR BREAKS. Even a few minutes every hour is beneficial, just stand up and walk around a little, stand when taking the next telephone call or do some workstation stretching exercises. This will help the blood to circulate around the body and bring more oxygen to the muscles and your brain. TRY AND REDUCE YOUR STRESS LEVELS. We are more susceptible to back pain when we are stressed, as our muscles tense up. See the Stress Management Society for information on how to reduce your stress levels: WATCH YOUR POSTURE. Just being aware of your posture, remembering to stand or sit straight and tall, will reduce stress on your spine. Always adopt a balanced posture and try not to lean over on one side. CONTACT US for further resources and information. We are here to help. KEYBOARD & MOUSE AT FRONT OF DESK BENEFIT: Reduces pressure on the back, arms and hands. SET UP: Keyboard and mouse close to the front of the desk, reducing reach forward. Hands and wrists in a neutral 90º position. TOP OF SCREEN AT EYE HEIGHT BENEFIT: Reduces pressure on the neck. SET UP: Place computer/laptop screen at eye level and arm distance away, so head is in a neutral position, with chin slightly tucked in. Use a separate keyboard and mouse if a laptop screen. THIGHS ARE SUPPORTED WITH A GAP BEHIND KNEE BENEFIT: Reducing pressure on the thighs and under the knee. SET UP: Adjust seat length to fit the length of your thighs, keep a two to three finger gap behind your knees. SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTED TO KEEP FEET FLAT ON FLOOR/FOOTREST BENEFIT: Reducing pressure on the legs. SET UP: Knees to be slightly below your hips and feet flat on the floor. You may need to use a footrest or desk raiser to keep arms level with the desk as well.

11 HOW TO CORRECTLY SET UP YOUR WORKSTATION & CHAIR TO REDUCE TENSION & RISK OF INJURY. HEAD BALANCED BENEFIT: Reduces pressure on the neck and shoulders. SET UP: Support the head in a natural position, with the chin gently tucked in, but not pushed forward. SIT BACK IN THE CHAIR BENEFIT: Supporting the body during different postural requirements according to the task at hand. SET UP: Adjust according to the task - upright for computer work, relaxed back for phone or reading work. Or keep on a free float to automatically adjust to you. ARMS SUPPORTED BY YOUR SIDE & PARALLEL TO THE DESK BENEFIT: Prevents frozen shoulder, RSI and tension in the shoulders, neck and upper back. SET UP: It is essential to keep your arms parallel with the desk, with hands and wrists relaxed when typing, so position the armrests to support you in this position. Ensure your shoulders are relaxed on the armrests. Adjust the depth if possible to allow you to bring the chair in close to the desk. LOWER BACK IS SUPPORTED BENEFIT: Supports the lower curve of the back, keeping it in a healthy S shape and reducing pressure on the back. SET UP: Check that it is the correct height and, if possible, depth for your lower back curve.
