Pelvic Tilt Linked to Increased Pain from Sitting:
It has long been thought that reduced lumbar muscle activity is the primary reason prolonged sitting can worsen low back pain. However, a recent study found that increased posterior pelvic tilt after 30 minutes of sitting on a couch was associated with greater low back pain, independent of lower back muscle activity. The authors suggest that postural strategies encouraging better pelvic alignment may help reduce discomfort during prolonged sitting.
