Guide to Proper Standing Posture

Some advice from our office furniture company.

Always avoid twisting at the neck; stay centered and symmetrical.

Your eyes always “win.” The placement of what you look at (e.g. monitor, laptop) will affect head and neck position.

Avoid splaying at the elbows – make sure arms are close to body and upper arm is in line with torso.

Armrest use is optional and based on individual comfort and preference.

Movement is key for health and productivity. Changing postures often encourages blood circulation, bringing oxygen to the body and brain.
