Learning to sit in good alignment can really help combat neck, shoulder and low back pain this simple gadget can provide a firm foundation for finding and maintaining that healthy position. 
Density Cushion Support - Sciatica Improved

This is not the most attractive wedge cushion out there, it was chosen because it is made from high density foam and so provides a supportive base over extended use. Wedges made from memory foam or that are inflatable, can easily deform from the ideal shape and provide inconsistent surface.

Often when prolonged sitting causes discomfort, we look for ways to support the body. We commonly believe that we should somehow prop the body up to relieve our aches and pains. Lumbar and arm supports may feel like relief in the beginning, but keeping an area in constant rest mode just makes it weaker and recovery that bit further away. In good alignment the body supports itself, using low level activity in the muscles designed for that purpose, bringing relief to shoulders and lower backs.

I regularly coach clients in the full aspects of Active Sitting when they visit the clinic for treatment, an illustrated description of all the information is emailed after the session, for future reference.
