Desk work, movement breaks and posture: practical starting points

A calm, non-fear-based guide to movement breaks and workday posture for desk-heavy routines.

Posture is only one part of the picture

Many people sit, stand or work in similar positions for long periods. Rather than focusing on one perfect posture, it can be helpful to consider comfort, variety, workload and movement options.

Simple starting points

The right advice depends on your presentation, but small changes can make movement easier to fit into the workday.

  • Change position when practical
  • Use short movement breaks
  • Build strength and capacity gradually
  • Seek assessment if symptoms are persistent or concerning
