Standing desks have become a hot topic in recent years, especially as more people experience back pain and other discomfort from long hours at their desks. Here are some benefits of standing desks:

• Keeping Your Muscles Engaged: Standing instead of sitting keeps your core and leg muscles slightly activated. This engagement improves blood flow and reduces muscle stiffness.
• Reduced Pressure on the Lower Back: When you sit for extended periods, your lower back can experience significant pressure from poor posture or lack of lumbar support. Standing desks help to encourage better posture which can help to alleviate pain. 
• Reduced Risk of Sedentary-Related Conditions: Prolonged sitting has been linked to various health concerns including obesity and poor circulation which can worsen spinal discomfort. Having standing breaks from time to time can lower these risks.
