Ergonomics :: FAQ
I frequently experience headaches during and after working at my computer. Why does this occur?
 
Forward head posture will cause the postural muscles of your neck to tighten, potentially compressing the nerves that enter the head, causing pain. This poor posture habit can be the result of the computer monitor being placed too far away. As a result, the computer user moves their head forward over their neck to see the screen. Visual glare from a computer monitor can also cause headaches.
