Ergonomic Workstation Adjustment
for Neck Pain
Modifying workstation setup to support neutral neck posture addresses the most common cause of chronic neck pain — prolonged screen work with forward head posture.
How it works
Reduces sustained cervical muscle load by positioning the screen at eye level, adjusting chair height, and optimising keyboard position. Each centimetre of forward head position increases the effective weight on cervical muscles significantly.
What to watch for
Ergonomic adjustment alone is insufficient without strengthening exercises. Regular movement breaks (every 30–45 minutes) are as important as static setup. Laptop use without a separate screen is a major risk factor.
