Most of these movements can be done while you are standing at your working area so that your employer or other work colleagues don\u2019t hate you for wasting time.<\/p>\n<p>Prolonged standing is classed as any work performed in a standing position for more than 80% of the full time working hours and can increase the risk of conditions such as heel pain, knee pain, Achilles Tenditinis, Lower back pain, foot and leg numbness and varicose veins.<\/p>\n<p>These conditions are frequent in my office Bankstown Podiatry clinic and I\u2019m sick of seeing you present with pain. It\u2019s funny, when I consult with a client or patient I usually tell them a simple way to relieve their pain is to quit their job and sell all their possessions and move somewhere nice and tropical with soft surfaces such as sand and grass \u2013 maybe Fiji? Maybe Bora Bora or maybe the Bahamas?! Obviously that\u2019s a joke, but believe it or not, I\u2019ve had a client agree and they retired to coastal Portugal to live!!<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5454517 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"5454517\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"735\" src=\"https:\/\/triumphinstitute.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chef-657352_1920-1080x775-1-1024x735.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1733\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/triumphinstitute.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chef-657352_1920-1080x775-1-1024x735.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/triumphinstitute.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chef-657352_1920-1080x775-1-300x215.jpg 300w, https:\/\/triumphinstitute.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chef-657352_1920-1080x775-1-768x551.jpg 768w, https:\/\/triumphinstitute.com.au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/chef-657352_1920-1080x775-1.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1a7992d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"1a7992d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The truth is, you\u2019re not going anywhere, literally!
