Pruning is an essential part of the health and care of this plant. Fortunately, this is a very forgiving task for this Genus, and you can pretty much prune it as tall or short as you need.
The only special thing, really, is that you wear gloves, or avoid the sap. It can be quite irritating to the skin. This is a common thing among the whole genus of Euphorbia.
