People who perform computer work throughout their day often complain of NECK PAIN.
One simple step can go along way to preventing the neck pain and headaches that are associated with it: sit side onto your desk and swing your arm held a 90degrees at the elbow. If your arm (elbow) hits the desk you need to lower the desk or increase the height of your chair. By relaxing your shoulder you will decrease the tension in your neck.

80% of people are effected by back pain at some point in their life. The Osteopaths at Castle Hill Osteopathic Clinic can effectively get you back to your feet. However there is one simple step that goes along way to beating back pain
Keep fluids up:
It is not only important to keep your muscle hydrated, your disc’s need to keep hydrated also. Your disc is made up of collagen, which holds water. We need to keep the disc hydrated to increase the amount of absorption that it can take. Increase water increase amount of absorption the disc can take and therefore decrease the risk of injury.
