5 Simple Desk Exercises to Beat Back Pain

Recovery isn't just about the injury — it's about the whole person. In this piece, we walk through a simple, sustainable approach you can apply this week, without expensive equipment or a full gym setup.

Why small habits matter

Consistency beats intensity. A five-minute routine done daily creates far more change than an hour done occasionally. The goal is to build a rhythm your body can rely on.

A simple starting plan

  1. Warm-up: gentle mobility for 2 minutes.
  2. Activation: light strengthening for the affected area.
  3. Cool-down: 3 focused stretches, held for 30 seconds each.

If any exercise increases your pain, stop and check in with a physiotherapist. A short assessment now can save weeks of trial and error later.
