Neck and Back Pain

I was wondering if any one had a suggestion on how to get rid of the neck and back pain that seems to go along with drafting/model building. It seems like every time I work on a project by back and neck hurt for hours.

Thanks

I found if I try to spread my work out a bit, then it's much easier on my body. Most of my aches and pains came from last minute all-nighters and the like. Also, try to take frequent breaks so you don't have to be in one position for such a long time. Hope that helps, good luck!

I agree. I also find that stretching is a great way to manage my pain, and I've become quite a fan of yoga. Here are some stretches that may help.
And here is a link to a video with some upper body stretches: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iTLm0LmMwi4
