Yes! I keep a curve in my back while sitting in a chair and while I work.

The most commonly herniated discs are in the lumbar spine at L4-L5 and L5-S1. The lumbar region of the spine is a C-shape curvature that must be maintained for the health of the lumbar discs and facets. I keep seeing newer automobile vehicles increase the curvature the WRONG way each year to slouch and compress the entire spine! Slouching initially feels good because there is an immediate release of pressure off the joints and nerves of the spine. However, over time this compression deteriorates the discs and causes irreversible damage. So yes, I will continue to arch my back and save my spine.
