BackFreeOffice is a resource hub for desk workers who are tired of ending each day with a sore back.
We believe that small, simple adjustments to your workspace can make a huge difference in how you feel. No expensive equipment required. No complicated routines. Just practical advice you can use right now.
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!
I’m not a doctor neither am I a physical therapist. I’m just someone who was tired of being in pain and decided to do something about it and as they say, experience is the best teacher.
Small, free adjustments to your current setup make the biggest difference. A rolled-up towel can work as well as a $50 lumbar pillow.
Sitting "perfectly" all day is impossible. I teach simple stretches and position changes you can do at your desk.
I only recommend products I have tested or thoroughly researched. If something is overpriced or overhyped, I will tell you.
