Your chamber of commerce staff and friends learned some great tips today on how to "stay fit while you sit" at the computer. Dr. Joseph Doughty of LaGrange Clinic of Specific Chiropractic told us to roll our shoulders, stand up and reach for the sky, and gave us hand stretches among other suggestions.
Who said typing isn't hard labor? Not Dr. Doughty! He noted that typing all day is equal to moving 27-tons. Yikes!
Other tips he shared were to look away from your monitor and focus across the room. That will help avoid eye strain.
And please don't cross your legs. Keep your feet on the floor - when at your desk, put a phone book or something under your feet to keep your knees bent and those muscles extended properly.
Want to learn more? The good doctor will give a seminar for your office, too. Call him at 706-882-1000.
Great Seminar. Thanks, Dr. Doughty!
