The sleeping position and equipment of the lunch break should be matched
A lunch break can rest and restore the brain after working all morning, and it is a good way to "restart" energy. Neck support pillows, neck support computer chairs and other equipment suitable for use in the office have become important lunch break companions, so which lunch break equipment is scientific and healthy?
Briefly introduce several types of practical and well-designed office "siesta artifacts" for your reference, so as to obtain a better lunch break experience.
lunch break chair
If you don’t have the conditions to sleep lying down on the bed, you can consider buying a recliner to sleep lying down. This posture avoids the pressure on the eyeballs, reduces the pressure on the cervical and lumbar spine, and breathes more smoothly. Moreover, the recliner is opened when taking a nap, and it is put away when not in use, so it will not take up too much space as a whole.
Ring cervical pillow
Those who choose to take a nap in the seat, it is best to wear a ring cervical pillow to fix the head position. Because the muscle tension of the whole body decreases after people fall asleep, if they directly lean on the back of the chair to take a nap in the morning, the head will involuntarily bend sideways or hang forward, which is prone to neck muscle strain, that is, "stiff neck". Therefore, it is recommended that you buy a ring-shaped cervical pillow. During lunch break, you can get a good rest effect by wearing the ring-shaped cervical pillow against the wall and other supports.
U-shaped pillow
If you sleep with your head against the back of the chair, you can also prepare a U-shaped pillow or a small pillow (rolled clothes can also be used) to cushion the back of the neck, which not only has a fixed effect, but also relieves the neck muscles and even the cervical spine after falling asleep. You can also prepare a pillow according to the height of your desk and chair, and put it under your head during a nap; if you really feel that the neck pillow is too big and takes up space, you can also choose a neck pillow that can be inflated and deflated , which is easy to store and can improve the quality of sleep during lunch breaks.
High-back, curved office chair
Sitting at a desk for a long time, the waist lacks sufficient support, and the weight of the upper body is fully pressed on the lumbar spine, which can easily lead to changes in the normal physiological curvature, increase the gravity on the intervertebral disc, and induce intervertebral disc herniation. Therefore, it is best to choose a high-back, curved office chair in the office, and place a curved cushion with a prominent middle and a certain hardness on the seat. For office workers, if they do not have the conditions to lie down and sleep during lunch breaks, it is best to sleep on an office chair, keep the line connecting the center of gravity of the head and lumbar spine perpendicular to the ground, and pay attention to proper physical exercise to obtain better health.
