For more useful advice on how to avoid back pain when working from home please download our E-book: How to live back pain free through Covid 19.

Are you currently working from home and are experiencing pain in your back, neck or wrist and you’re not sure why? We have the answer…

Most of us spend hours at our desk every day. Bad habits and incorrect posture can lead to short-term pains and aches that can turn into long-term injuries especially when your desk and chair at home was not designed for office work.

Most office chair and desk heights will have been assessed according to Ergonomic guidelines to ensure the workers don’t suffer with long-term or short-term pains due to sitting at the desk for extended periods of time. However, now that you are working from home, we understand that you may be finding yourself suffering with pains that you’ve never had before simply because your chair and desk have not been assessed to the ergonomic guidelines recommended causing pains and strains in your neck and back. This is why you would benefit greatly from a video appointment with a Physiotherapist who can assess your home working space and let you know what to adjust to be able to work comfortably and efficiently.

WHat is a desk assessment?

More commonly referred to as a display screen equipment (DSE) or workplace assessment, a desk assessment is recommended for anyone who feels that their current workstation setup may be contributing to pain and discomfort in the lower back, neck or wrist.

For individuals with an injury or disability, a desk assessment is an ideal way to identify improvements that can be made to the desk setup, the individuals working patterns, or recommend assistive technology (e.g specialist chairs) that can improve comfort. A desk assessment considers your ergonomic setup and organisation of work tasks to provide practical recommendations to improve comfort.

We offer a comprehensive desk assessment service to individuals and organisations. All desk assessments are carried out by chartered Physiotherapists with specialist training.

During the video appointment your Physio will look into:

  • Desk height adjustment
  • Desk and chair adjustments
  • Correct screen height/size
  • Correct position for mouse and keyboard
  • Tips and tricks for the mouse and keyboard
  • Correct way of sitting
  • Give lifestyle tips on how to keep fit and mobile whilst working from home

Our Premium Restorative Physiotherapy treatment will be performed during a thorough and relaxing 1 hour and a half session.

Please book with us for a “Video Appointment” with a Physio to assess your Office with Home Ergonomics before the pain becomes unbearable.

Are you a business leader?

If the answer is ‘yes’, you most likely have staff who have previously or are currently working from home, experiencing new sedentary lifestyles alongside new aches and pains as a result of the pandemic.

As a leader you may have asked yourself ‘what can I do to help all of our home workers stay fit and pain-free whilst working from home?’.

We have the answer… our: Home Office Well-being Programme (Bronze Edition).

At ALO, we have created instructional tutorial programmes, which any person who works at a desk can follow and put into practise to ensure they are pain-free! So far, our programmes have been a huge success with many businesses who have teams working from home.

Our programmes provide tutorial videos created and tailored by our ALO team, made bespoke for your teams exact needs. All of our tutorials are less than 15 minutes long, non-invasive and can be performed by virtually anyone. The tutorials created will show you many exercises, including ones you can actually perform while still being at your desk that will help to ease any back, neck or wrist ache!

Give your staff the gift of a pain-free work station!

By purchasing our Home Office Well-being Programme your staff members will receive one video weekly or daily depending on which level package purchased.

The videos can be followed at your staff members own leisure and will be theirs to keep to refer back to whenever they need a boost at their desk!

Below we can see our physio Nina demonstrating some of the exercises from our Home Office Well-being Programme (Bronze Edition). You can expect to receive content like this and much more when purchasing a programme, to help create a comfortable work space for your staff.

TESTIMONIALS

Since seeing Louise (following an Achilles rupture repair), I have:

- Made it back onto tennis / squash courts to (tentatively!) celebrate 1 year anniversary of my surgery 
- Ran my fastest 10k at 43.57! 
- Ran 5k in 21:30 (vs pre-surgery PB of 20:18) 
- I increased my single leg calf lift to 59 kg (vs ~18 kg initially a few months ago) 
- I had a final appt with my consultant, who discharged me while congratulating me on a wonderful recovery

All the above is to illustrate that I'm absolutely delighted with the progress I have made since last summer when I couldn't do anything and the outlook seemed bleak. I'll be forever grateful for Louise’s guidance and support as I've navigated the long road back from my injury, and I appreciate the continued advice to help me prepare for more dynamic activity. Louise has been really fantastic and I couldn't have asked for better care.

Recovering from a full Achilles rupture. Started my work with Nina in feb and my progress has only been positive and upwards and I am almost at full speed again. Nina put me back together again almost from scratch. She is the best physio I have ever worked with and will again. Very knowledgable and very hard working. Can’t recommend enough.

What a great find! My orthopaedic surgeon recommended them and I can't rate Luigi, Gloria and the team more highly. Excellent service and very effective treatment- recovering nicely!

Justine

I am 84 years old, and have always been fit and healthy and exercised regularly. 3 years ago I underwent emergency surgery for peritonitis, and had a colonoscopy bag for 6 months and straight after surgery to reversal of the stoma. After this surgery I felt my legs very weak. To complete my drama, during the last summer I developed an abdominal hernia and had surgery for hernia repair. This made me even weaker specially at my legs. I have recovered but felt weak. I started my sessions at ALO Physiotherapy at the beginning of January, with the Vibra Machine combined with specific exercises. I have now recovered my body strength, particularly in the legs. I am now walking normally and without pain. I am delighted!

Barbara

Great clinic with great people! I was so lucky to find this clinic and even more when I met Andre. He's a very talented therapist and a wonderful person who makes you feel comfortable every time. He helped me to resolve my back problems in few appointments and I will be always grateful to him! From my experience is the best clinic in London and I highly recommend them without any doubts!

Daniele

One of the best physiotherapy centres in the world! The professionalism and knowledge of this centre amazed me.

Pierre

I am so glad I found this clinic. Luigi has been amazing. After my 1st session I felt an improvement and now have ALOT more movement and significant reduction in pain. I couldn’t recommend this clinic & Luigi enough. So helpful and flexible whenever I have needed to amend appointments. Every one is fantastic. I will continue to come here for as long as I need.

Mital

Andre is the best physiotherapist I came across. As a dedicated martial arts practitioner, I regularly use his services. He has always managed to fix my various back and leg injuries. I would recommend Alo Physiotherapy to anyone who suffers from body pain.

Thomas

Where do I begin? The journey has been too long with Andre Oliveira and ALO Clinic , as he helped me both physically and mentally to overcome an injury I had in both of my knees. A small injury , after following wrong treatment became chronic and I found myself unable to walk/stand/run and do the simplest things- the mental impact was worse. I was introduced to Andre by Eleftherios Pavlidis who runs Laertion in Athens. lefteris with his team were the first to accommodate the problem and told me what I need to do. As a Londoner, I was introduced to Andre and ALO Clinic, and the rest is history. Since February 2017 when I had the first session with Andre and he identified the biomechanic nature of the problem, along with the use of Tecar the results were visible after one month. Since then, along with personal effort and strengthening I did always guided by Andre, I the problem is restored and the pain is gone. I highly recommend ALO Physiotherapy Clinic , and Andre Oliveira for anyone who suffers from sport injuries , amateurs or professional top athletes.

Constantinos

Very professional staff and friendly environment. I felt a lot better after very first session. Appointment are easily available. I would definitely recommend this place

Muhammad

The care I received from ALO Physiotherapy was outstanding from the first session to the last. Sessions with Louise were informative as well as practical, allowing me to understand the context/logic behind treatment as well as tips to prevent future injuries. Louise was always readily available to answer my questions and the treatment process was collaborative rather than being prescriptive. Beyond the expertise of the team the quality of the equipment and facilities was incredibly high and aided my recovery significantly. I would recommend ALO Physiotherapy to anyone who requires physiotherapy treatment in the Marylebone area.

ALO is an excellent well-run clinic and Louise Hynes who looked after me is a superb physiotherapist. Louise is knowledgeable, skilled and very efficient at her job. My sore shoulder was sorted out in no time thanks to her. Thank you, Louise, and thank you ALO.
