To avoid having to deal with these type of health issues one can make sure that periodic breaks are taken while working and here is where applications such as Break Reminder come in.

While working in the background, Break Reminder keeps an eye on the number of breaks you take during a day and, if necessary, it will display alerts asking you to get up for a break to increase your overall productivity and fight of any health problems caused by sitting down in your chair countless hours each work day.
Moreover, while watching over your daily break habits, Break Reminder will stay out of your way and will also automatically change your iChat status to let your friends and colleagues that you're out for a short break.
The Break Reminder utility can also be setup to display various tips and tricks on how to apply ergonomics principles and physical exercises to make sure that when you leave the office you're still as energized as you we're when you left the house in the morning.
