How it works
Prolonged sitting or standing causes venous pooling in the dependent limbs due to gravity and reduced muscle pump activity.
Take regular movement breaks. Adjust workstation to allow walking breaks. Sit rather than stand if standing causes swelling.
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.
