Standing desk (adjustable, with electric motor) is great for this. It will take some adjustment but a good headset with a good standing desk will do wonders for your posture, allowing you to pace while you think (I think better when I'm walking or pacing) or during conference calls/standups, look out the window, do a few pushups etc then drop the desk after an hour or 2 and sit for some keyboard/mouse/touchscreen action depending on your work.
Sitting all day is the absolute worst for the human body - lymph system gets listless, joints get stuck, blood doesn't flow as well to the brain and so on.
All disease is cell disease and if a cell can't get rid of its waste it becomes rebellious and cancerous. The lymphatic system is not circulatory and works best when the body is in motion or being massaged.
Oh yea, if you have the $ having a professional masseuse drop in for a 15-min neck and shoulder rub goes a long way, too.
Do not underestimate the long-term negative effects of a sedentary work day on your health, longevity and well-being.
Having a chill pet around like a slacker cat or quiet dog would probably be good for a lot of people, too.
