As society increasingly relies on computers, smartphones, and other forms of technology, both in the workplace and at home, more and more people are sitting more than ever. According to surveys, the average American now sits for approximately 10 hours per day. And while sitting might seem harmless, the truth is: It’s wreaking havoc on our health.

If you are dealing with sciatica pain, you know how problematic and, at times, disruptive it can be for your life. Getting relief might be your only priority, and some people have found spinal decompression therapy to be a useful, non-surgical option.

Do you know that prolonged sitting can have a profoundly negative effect on your body? If you’re stuck sitting behind a desk all day, you’re a prime candidate for low back pain, limited mobility, poor posture, and even more severe, long-term health issues as you age. And, since the average person sits for a whopping 10 hours per day, most people are at risk for the aforementioned health problems.
