Guidance from an expert physiotherapist on how to effectively set up a home work station to suit postural needs and avoid aches and pain.

When there is a change to the working environment it is important to understand how to set up your work station to suit your postural needs and avoid pain and stiffness. With working from home now a feature for many of us, it is crucial to ensure that our workspaces are set up effectively.

Over the course of this session we evaluate the latest health literature to provide a clinical insight into why we get work related pain and how we can all take steps to alleviate these symptoms. We will also cover the importance of physical exercise and give you expert ideas to try at home.
