Manchester, NH, May 11, 2012—Standing while working burns more calories, helps avoid blood clots in the legs and offers other health benefits. In fact, obese people, on average spend about 2.5 more hours sitting each day than thin people. But, if you‘re considering buying a fulltime standing desk, you might want to consider a height adjustable desk. That‘s because there may be some health drawbacks from being at a standing desk all day, according to a recent Canadian Women‘s Health Network study. Prolonged standing and walking can lead to a number of injuries right away, the study says. These can include bunions, swollen ankles, varicose veins, knee problems and other soft tissue injuries.

“The key to better health is to alternate between standing and sitting throughout the day,” says Michael Kind, CEO of Right Height, a company that offers a line of adjustable height desks. “That‘s why we created adjustable height desks with motors that make them easy to adjust.”

The motors, which lift and lower the adjustable height desk surface at about 1-inch per second, make changing from sitting to standing at the desk during the day easy and convenient.
