Ergonomic Workspace Setup
Creating an ergonomic workspace is crucial in mitigating the impact of forward head posture. Adjusting the computer monitor’s height to ensure eye level meets the top third of the screen promotes a straight gaze and prevents excessive forward head movement. Positioning the mouse and keyboard to keep forearms parallel to the floor and elbows at a comfortable 90-degree angle helps maintain proper posture during work hours. [2]
Investing in an office chair with a headrest further supports the back of the head while working, reducing the tendency to slouch forward. Moreover, setting daily reminders to check and correct posture significantly aids in preventing prolonged slouching and forward head positioning.
