Most desk-related back pain comes down to one detail: what’s actually touching the seat. When we slouch, we roll the pelvis back and load the tailbone, a delicate structure that isn’t built to bear weight and can throw off the sacro-iliac joints, creating a chain reaction of discomfort up the spine.
Overcorrecting into an arched lower back isn’t the answer either. Instead, aim for the middle ground: sit on your ischial tuberosities (the “sits-bones”), the two bony points built to carry your weight safely. Your lower back will thank you.
