Height-adjustable tables are one option to increase movement and encourage posture changes throughout the workday.
Sedentary jobs have increased by 83% since 1950, meaning more people are sitting at work than ever before.
There is evidence that an overly sedentary lifestyle can contribute to negative health effects such as obesity, cardiovascular complications, and diabetes.
Height-adjustable tables are one option to increase movement and encourage posture changes throughout the workday by using a sit to stand desk.
Research Supports the Following:
- Users of height-adjustable tables report improved job satisfaction, feelings of job control, and overall comfort.
- Height-adjustable tables can reduce sitting time if used correctly; training is an important component to encourage proper use.
- Some studies report improvements in general accuracy and speed with height-adjustable table use.
