Study: Reducing sitting time by 40 minutes reduces worsening of back pain

Back pain is a very common problem. The risk of back pain may increase more in a person who is overweight, elderly or in stress-related conditions. Experts want to understand which lifestyle interventions may be most effective for people with back pain.

A study published in BMJ Open has recently shown that reducing sitting by just one hour a day can help with back pain.

To reach this conclusion, a study was conducted for six months, with participants who reduced sitting by 20 minutes a day and 40 minutes a day.

Those who reduced it by 40 minutes saw less back pain than the other group.

The results prove that even simple changes in activity can bring benefits to people experiencing back pain./ CNA
