#TechNeck #ScreenUse #MayoClinicHealthSystem

In this digital age, screens dominate our daily lives and now “tech neck” has emerged as a potential health issue. In this Mayo Clinic Health System video, learn how tech neck isn’t just about discomfort; it can have serious repercussions. Spending hours each day hunched over screens strains your neck muscles and puts pressure on your spine.

As a result, neck pain has become the fourth leading cause of disability.
Learn tips to prevent this condition by maintaining proper posture by positioning your screen about 20–30 inches away from your eyes, roughly an arm’s length. And don’t forget to take breaks and move—your body will thank you.

If you're struggling with neck or back issues, don't suffer in silence. The experts in the Spine Center department at Mayo Clinic Health System are here to help.
