What to Sit on to Alleviate Stiffness

John is right prolonged sitting is not good for PMR as I am sure you know. I sit on a heating pad that helps with stiffness and pain. Just make sure you get one that turns off automatically after a certain time in case you forget.

Don't sit on a heating pad - it will dry you out in places not intended to be dry. A heating pad at your back is fine. I often use a heating pad while watching TV, soothing but haven't really found that it helps with stiffness.
