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.
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.
Getting started
This is a lifestyle-based approach. Start gradually and consult a health professional if you have any concerns about suitability for your situation.
