Dr. Brad Weiss, Performance Health Center, Publishes Free Ergonomic Tips for Telecommuters and HR Departments As telecommuting becomes the new normal for many workers, what can help them deliver a homerun performance every day? Dr. Bradley (Brad) Weiss, chiropractor for Grammy-winning musicians, executives and athletes, says ergonomics are key. “As more people adjust to an at-home work life of lengthy virtual meetings, or regularly sneak back into the spare bedroom-turned-office after dinner, the right furniture and posture are critical,” notes Dr. Weiss, the founder of Performance Health Center, Natick, Mass. “They can prevent everything from headaches to eye strain, and free everyone to enjoy the many positives of home-based employment.” To help individuals capitalize on these benefits, and provide standards for HR departments, Dr. Weiss has published the complimentary guide, Ergonomic Tips for Working from Home. Filled with photos and video demonstrations, it covers: Traditional desk/computer setups: The right lumbar support, seat tilt, and positioning Active sitting: Maintaining a healthy level of motion and excellent posture, whether using a backless chair or a ballStanding desks: Balancing work and stretch breaksZooming in on laptops: The right height for virtual meetingsUsing a laptop in the kitchen, dining room, bedroom and on the forbidden couch: Why sitting on the sofa causes Dr. Weiss to cry foulText neck and how to avoid curvature and pain, which can lead to costly absences Stretches to get muscles moving and blood circulatingThe guide is available for download directly from the Performance Health Center homepage (performancehealthcenter.com) or at https://bit.ly/2MZIs64.
