Nudge Benefits
Sitting at a computer for long periods (especially if its in poor posture) results in the muscles between the neck and shoulders working hard for long periods. They can become tender and sore.
These muscles in particular respond to emotional stress.
Moving like this frequently helps the muscles to relax and improves circulation.
