Back pain from desk work is one of the most common complaints I hear from corporate clients. Hours of sitting, poor posture, and stress create a perfect storm for chronic discomfort.
The good news? Most desk-related back pain is preventable and fixable with the right approach. It starts with understanding why it happens: prolonged sitting weakens your core and glutes, tight hip flexors pull your pelvis out of alignment, and hunching over a screen strains your upper back and neck.
Simple fixes include regular movement breaks, desk stretches, and targeted strengthening exercises. But the real solution is building sustainable habits that support your body throughout the workday.
