My Story

For years, I spent hours a day behind a desk, and every evening I’d come home with a dull, aching back. I thought it was normal. I thought it was just “part of working.” Then I learned the truth: My daily routine of sitting 9+ hours and no gym was slowly wreaking havoc on my back.

I started researching ergonomics, talking to my collegues, watching youtube videos etc. I tested some cheap products but I didn’t find much success. Based on what I had researched, I started to make small changes to my chair, my monitor, and my desk. And slowly, the pain faded.

Now I want to help you do the same — without spending thousands of dollars or browsing hundreds of web pages. Or worse still, quitting your job!
