Stand in the kitchen for a long time without back pain - relieve your back

I expect some guests and have quite a few preparations for the planned meal to accomplish.

Now my kitchen is still built in the standard height, to mean: Working height 85 cm, this is basically a bit too low for me. From a body length of 1.68 this should have a working height of 87-90 cm..das noticed on the edge. (The next will be adapted to my size)

With longer Schnibbelaktionen in the state, the back sometimes like to make a mum, working in a sitting position is out of the question for me, so:


In my kitchen is a small stool for years, I put this very close to the kitchen cabinet and put a leg on it (as in a pub / restaurant on the counter, there it is always a metal / wood circulation in lower leg height). This has its purpose in the kitchen as well as at the counter ... smile.

Now my back is relieved and I can occasionally change the side / leg ... very relaxing for the sacrum. If there is no stool at hand, then it also does an overturned pot or an inverted bowl (old).

Several years ago, I got stuck with this nonsense during my apprenticeship as a physiotherapist by the lecturers and am always surprised that for many of my acquaintances this simple tip is new and that this is happily put into practice.

Achieve so much with simple means!
