Proper Workstation Ergonomics - (Sit/Stand Stations and Double Monitors inc.)

Ergonomics is the science of fitting the workplace to the human beings who inhabit it. Nowadays, more people are working behind desks for prolonged periods of time, especially at computer workstations, which can create postural strain conditions that can have long-lasting effects on your health.
In this video, Dr. Barbara Rodwin, D.C. demonstrates proper workstation/workplace ergonomics. Your sit/stand stations, double monitors/single monitors, keyboard, mouse, chair, footstool, phone, paperwork, data entry and laptop usage are all covered in this informative video! Please do not hesitate to reach out to Dr. Rodwin or the professionals at Back to Health if you have any questions about this.
