Working from home seemed like a dream until my lower back started complaining every single evening. I used to think, “How bad can sitting be?” Turns out, pretty bad—especially when your home office setup isn’t doing your spine any favors. After months of trial, error, and a few chiropractic visits, I learned that comfort isn’t…
