Office Ergonomics for Coccyx Pain

If you work at a desk, proper ergonomics is essential for coccyx pain relief. Here's how to set up your workspace.

Chair Setup

Seat height: Feet flat, hips slightly above knees
Seat depth: 2-3 finger widths between knee and seat edge
Backrest: Lumbar support at natural curve
Armrests: Shoulders relaxed, elbows at 90°

Monitor Position

Top of screen at or slightly below eye level
Arm's length distance (20-26 inches)
Directly in front to avoid neck twisting

💡 Pro Tip: Set a timer for 30-minute standing breaks. Use this time to walk, stretch, or do standing work.
