			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you work in an office and spend most of your day at the computer, it is likely that you are experiencing neck or back pain from slouching to view the screen. Stress in the back, neck, shoulders, arms and legs in particular can be created through sitting for long periods of time in a static position. It is therefore essential to ensure that you are in a comfortable position before you resume your work.</p>
<p>Spinal ligaments and discs can be strained and overstretched from hunching over in your chair. It may not worry you at the moment but you should bear in mind that assuming this position day in day out could cause permanent back problems.</p>
<p>Ergonomic office chairs have technology that can support your back and reduce back pain, but these can be expensive. You can avoid back problems by simply adjusting your existing office chair following these basis instructions. Chairs will need to be adjusted differently depending on the individuals&#8217; body proportions.</p>
<p>To adjust your chair correctly, you should sit as close as possible to your desk so that your upper arms are parallel to your spine. Rest your hands on the work surface so that your elbows are at a 90 degree angle. After doing this check that your thighs can still easily fit under the desk.</p>
<p>Ensure that you are sitting straight and that your back is pressed into the chair. This will minimise the strain on your back and reduce stress on the lumbar discs. </p>
<p>Your gaze should now be aimed at the centre of the computer screen. If your screen is higher or lower than your gaze you should adjust this to avoid neck strain.</p>
<p>Hopefully this will relieve any stress in your neck, back and shoulders and prevent any repeat back pain.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Although stools are certainly not common furniture in usual, standard homes, they are seen in bars or cafes, especially near the counter. Different from other seats, stools lack arm rests even though some, like bar stools, don&#8217;t even have back rests, and sitting in stools for a long time would inevitably make someone really uncomfortable and even sore. This is where stool cushions come to the rescue; they offer added padding on for the stool, and thus allows the person sitting on the stool to be more comfortable.</p>
<p>Stool cushions begun as a latest trend for those who wants comfortable and stylish chairs which match the rooms decor (these cushions are available in a variety of shapes, colors and materials). Nonetheless, more and more companies now have started to produce stool cushions which provide not only comfort, but pain treatment as well.</p>
<p>It is hard to continuously adjust one&#8217;s position within the small sitting space offered by a stool, so more often that not, circulation of blood is lessened on one part of the butt area, ultimately causing numbness, or worse, pain.</p>
<p>Almost all stools are constructed with wood, plastic or metal and if an individual sits on a stool for an extended period, the flow of blood to the tailbone areas lessens. This means that each time a person stands up after prolong sitting on the stool, he/she might feel slightly numb on the butt area. Stool cushions are commonly made with polyester pillow fill or foam for extra padding.</p>
<p>Aside from its practical uses, stool cushions also features plenty of decorative value. In case you just painted your room blue and the old, wooden stool sticks out like a misplaced child, putting a fitting stool cushion on it will allow it to fit into the room&#8217;s decor. Adding cushions to your stool to make it look a so much better is perfect for homeowners who prefer stools since they&#8217;re reasonably more affordable compared to other chairs.</p>
