ERGONOMIC SEATING FOR YOUR OFFICE
VISIONARY OFFICE CONCEPTS recommends two office chair solutions: ‘Freedom’ by
Humanscale and ‘Aeron’ by Herman Miller.
WHY IS THE RIGHT CHAIR SO CRITICAL?
When you sit this way for an extended period of time, you
tend to slouch and your spine loses its natural alignment.
The results of slouching? Fidgeting, fatigue and general
discomfort, quite often followed by lower back pain, tight
shoulder and neck muscles, and headaches.
Unfortunately, office seating today - including chairs with
a lumbar feature - doesn’t provide the lower back,
below-the-beltline support necessary to encourage a good
posture and maintain spinal alignment.
Freedom and Aeron chairs do!!!
Why is good posture so important, and what are the drawbacks
of poor posture?
Good posture balances your body weight on your skeletal
structure, as nature intended. This reduces the workload
on your muscles, enhances blood circulation throughout the
body and relieves pressure on the diaphragm, which improves
your breathing and helps prevent fatigue.
When you slouch, your spine goes out of alignment and your
muscles are required to work overtime to make up for the
lack of skeletal support - that is, they have to hold up
the extra weight that is not supported by your skeleton.
In addition to wear and tear on the muscles, this also stresses
your body’s other soft tissues, specifically the ligaments
and tendons.
Additionally, poor posture places more pressure on your
lower back, notably the discs that make up your spinal column.
This condition results in the backaches, headaches, and other
uncomfortable symptoms that many seated workers experience,
and can lead to more serious and chronic lower back problems.
