Poor blood circulation, tense and sore muscles.
Travel by plane during the Spring Festival, whether at home or abroad. Even if you just go to Japan, South Korea, Thailand and other neighboring countries in Asia, it will take 3 or 4 hours to get there by plane. If you fly to Europe and America, the flight time is more than ten hours! Sitting in the engine room for a long time, the muscles are in a state of tension and contraction, and the blood circulation is not smooth, resulting in stiff shoulders and necks. The legs are also oppressed by hematocele in the lower limbs, resulting in numbness and swelling.
Correct sitting posture can reduce muscle compression.
In order to reduce the discomfort of sitting for a long time, the first thing to do is to sit correctly. Make sure that the chair has a headrest (you can bring your own small pillow for backup) and armrests. When sitting, the back is attached to the back of the chair, so that the angle between the upper body and thigh, thigh and calf is 85~90 degrees, and the feet are flat on the ground. To put it simply, there should be a pillow on the head, elbows to be supported, back to be supported, and feet to be trampled, so that the body can have enough support and help reduce the pulling and oppression on muscles. In addition, the air in the cabin is dry. Remember to drink plenty of water to replenish water, which can promote blood circulation and relieve tense muscles.
