If you're plagued by back pain from sitting at your desk all day, experts suggest a simple exercise could offer some relief.
Orthopaedic surgeon Dr John M Kirsch even asserts he has ⁘cured⁘ multiple patients, including himself, of shoulder problems through hanging, though he concedes more research is required to validate these claims. Beyond the shoulders, hanging can also provide gentle spinal decompression, which can feel particularly soothing after a long day hunched over a computer.
The best part? You don't need any special equipment to get started. Strength and movement coach Jon Nicholson suggests that if possible, the optimal choice is to acquire a pull-up bar that can be installed in your home, as there are many varieties available that can fit most doorframes.
⁘I have one on my landing and it makes it really easy to do a minute hang in the morning and one at night before bed,⁘ he says. ⁘I've also got a set of rings hanging from a tree in the garden, which I barely get to use because the kids insist on having it set up for them to hang on.⁘
