Why Your Home Office Chair Isn't the Problem (And What Actually Is)

Published: March 06, 2026

Struggling with discomfort at your desk? It's not always your chair. 1. Check desk height: elbows should be at 90° when typing. 2. Foot placement matters—feet flat on floor or a footrest, not dangling. 3. Monitor top should be at eye level; use books if needed. 4. Sit on your sit bones (ischial tuberosities), not slumped on tailbone. 5. Take micro-breaks every 25 mins: stand, stretch, reset posture. Ergonomics is system-wide—tweak all pieces.
