Sitting at a desk for hours creates a sense of tension and strain on the lumbar spine, over stretches the mid to upper back and shortens the chest and hips-leading to neck, shoulder and lower back pain.
Try this you don’t have the time to practice yoga at home.
1. Finger And Wrist Stretches
Due to the extra tension built up in the tendons and muscles of the fingers, it is important to try finger and wrist stretches every two hours to provide extra blood flow to these areas.
Extend your arms to the sides, draw 5-10 circles inwards and outwards.
Gently spread the fingers and close your fists, repeat this at least 5 times to release the extra tension.
Keep your hands on the desk, palms facing up and fingers towards you, putting gentle pressure to counter stretch the wrist and the forearm.
2. Seated Crescent Moon Pose
Seated Crescent Moon helps you fix your posture so that you can return to your seat with a taller spine, a clearer head and sharper focus.
