Is Your Ergonomic Furniture Hurting You? | Michelle Joyce | TEDxOakland

In this talk posture expert, Michelle Joyce shares the secret to avoiding office injuries and effortlessly achieving great posture Michelle Joyce is on a mission to eliminate unhealthy posture! She’s frequently featured on TV shows and teaches posture workshops worldwide. Originally trained as a Marriage and Family Therapist, she believes that helping people change their posture involves much more than simply telling them to sit up straight.
She is the author of the book Posture Makeover, creator of the popular app The 30 Day Posture Makeover, and her online posture lessons have millions of views on TH-cam.
She first became interested in changing her posture when terrible back pain started interfering with her career as a professional dancer. After trying every imaginable remedy, and spending a small fortune, she finally discovered the power of posture to solve the problem. A happy side effect was that she also felt more confident, coordinated and attractive. She has devoted herself to spreading the word ever since.
Michelle has a Masters in Counseling and is certified in Occupational Ergonomics, Reposturing Dynamics, Personal Training, Thai Massage and Reposturing Dynamics. She likes to combine techniques from various disciplines to help people build healthy habits that will make them look great, feel confident and live pain free!

I still don't understand why everyone doesn't just do what I do. 30 Helium balloons tethered to the crown of my head, straight back and made me a foot taller too!

It’s not about the furniture. It’s how you use yourself in a healthy coordinated way.

The design of the furniture does determine how it is used, though. More consideration about what materials, angles and contours would best support our musculoskeletal systems (of all genders/sizes) ought to be implemented into design. AI could be beneficial in helping designers do that.

Ergonomic means, "we'll make you so uncomfortable you will not sit down!"
From my truck seats, to my computer chair they are out to destroy my back.
