Is Working From Home Ruining Your Body?

Before the pandemic hit, some of us dreamt of the day we could roll out of bed, skip the morning commute and work from the comfort of our homes. But, two years into the pandemic, that dream has become a reality for so many of us and it may have come with some unforeseen consequences. 

With DIY office's hastily set up in kitchens on couches and some even from bed, our work set ups may have ended up being quite the pain in the neck.. and back.. and wrist. 

In this episode we look at the impact working from home has had on our bodies
