A person who would stay in a static position for long hours are prone to back pain. Postural muscles in the back are activated in order for the person to maintain it's posture against gravity. Due to constant tension, these muscles tend to sore and ache. Proper back care, correct posture, stretching, enough rest and use of ergonomically designed furnitures are the usual conservative treatments for back pain.
