For office workers, the biggest pain is that they can't afford to sit for a long time. Once they arrive at the company, they need to get busy and sit in front of the computer. After a long time, you will feel backache. It makes people feel very painful. How should we alleviate this situation? Let's take a look.
How to relieve back pain after sitting for a long time
1. Change the sitting posture: Each of us is sitting in a different posture. If the sitting posture is incorrect, it will increase the burden on the waist. After a long time, the waist will feel uncomfortable. Therefore, the correct sitting posture is very correct. When sitting, we'd better move our buttocks back about 3 cm, which will make our bodies stand tall and straight.
2. Exercise the waist: It is best for office workers to exercise the lower waist occasionally during work, that is, twist the waist back and forth, so as to temporarily relieve the pressure on the waist, promote blood circulation and relax the muscles of the waist.
3. Simple stretching exercises: We can do proper stretching exercises in our spare time at work to release the waist muscles.
1. Put your legs directly on the chair, keep sitting posture, and then stretch your hands backwards to do chest expansion.
2. Keep sitting posture, straighten your feet, bend forward and do forward flexion.
4. Hot compress on the waist: office workers can use hot towels at home after work, which can accelerate local blood circulation and thus relieve the discomfort of the waist.
5. Massage the waist: directly put your fingers together and put them on the left and right back lumbar vertebrae, palms inward, and slowly knead them up and down until you feel the skin is hot.
6. Pull-ups: Now there are some fitness equipment in the community. We can find a horizontal bar, hold the horizontal bar with both hands and exert strength upward, which can exercise the strength of the waist and make the muscles more developed.
How to prevent lumbago from sitting for a long time
1. Use the correct sitting posture: Lumbago is closely related to sitting posture, so in order to relieve the pressure on the waist, we need to sit upright.
2. Exercise the waist frequently: if we sit there motionless for a long time, the blood circulation speed of the waist will be relieved, and the muscles will feel sore. Then we need to massage and compress the waist to accelerate the blood circulation speed of the waist, thus effectively preventing back pain.
3. Exercise your waist strength regularly: You can do some exercises in your daily life to exercise the muscles of your waist and strengthen your waist strength.
From the above, we can know that the waist will feel uncomfortable after sitting for a long time, so we need proper massage and hot compress on the waist to speed up the blood circulation of the waist.
