My neighbor Carol was right about getting a standing desk converter

She told me 6 months ago to just buy a $150 converter instead of a whole new desk, and after my back started killing me I finally listened. Anyone else have a cheap fix that actually worked way better than expected?

The $30 under-desk foot rest from IKEA saved my knees way more than I thought it would. I was constantly shifting around trying to get comfortable before I got it. Turns out having your feet flat instead of dangling does a lot for your lower back. It's just a hunk of plastic but it works. I'd say that and a rolled up towel for lumbar support are my two cheap fixes that beat any fancy ergonomic chair I've tried.

Did you see that study about how foot support affects your whole spine alignment?
