Posture Guide: Hints to maintain good posture


Here are some hints that will help you achieve better posture & reduce back pain”.


  • Exercise regularly to keep abdominal muscles strong. This helps support the spine.

  • Avoid carrying heavy items to one side (example a heavy bag worn over a shoulder).

  • Always bend at the knees, not the back, and quickly drop the load if it’s too heavy.

  • When standing your feet should be shoulder width apart.

  • Use a lumbar roll or back support to support the lower back. Maintain an arch.

  • Leave your computer screen every 20 minutes and stretch and stroll for a minute.

  • Cross ankles rather than knees when sitting.

  • Don’t tighten up muscles when in the straight posture. Relax into it.

  • Sit with back against chair, and knees in line with your hips.

  • At desk, arms should be flexed at a 70 to 90 degree angle to elbows.

  • Walk tall. Think of pulling the entire body upwards towards the sky.
