Benefits of the Saddle Chair for bad backs

The benefits of the saddle chair are well documented. Its shape and design provide a more beneficial and supportive sitting posture than conventional ergonomic chair designs.

The declining position of the upper legs rotate the pelvis forwards and curves the lower back in to an anatomically correct position of the lordosis. This in turn straightens the upper back, leading to a generally improved back posture and reduced tension in the upper back, shoulder girdle and neck muscles.

Recommended for active seating/standing roles such as check-out cashiers, mailroom personnel, machine or equipment operators or very active clerical staff. They are also particulaly recommended for dentists as they have spend much of their working day leaning forwards and saddle chairs are now used worldwide by dentists as they are generally considered to be the best seating solution for their needs.

The saddle chair comprises a moulded seat covered with polyurethane foam and usually upholstered in easy clean vinyl or leather. The short, wide saddle seat had been designed to make it suitable for both sexes.

Saddle Chair features:
• Strengthens the back, abdominal and buttock muscles
• Improves your posture
• Improves leg circulation and reduces foot swelling
• Enables the user to reach further and more safely than in a conventional chair

Saddle Chair : Reviews

I would like to take this opportunity to say a big thank you! I purchased the Affinity Saddle Stool and it arrived yesterday, I am extremely pleased with my stool! I suffer from lower/upper back and neck trouble and am training myself to be a reflexologist and holistic therapist so this is my reason for the purchase, the saddle is bigger than I expected, like a real saddle and I can feel a instant difference in my posture!

Just to confirm that new saddle stool has arrived, wowh I can't believe the speed of it. I would certainly recommend your company, now hopefully I'll have many happy years with a straight back. Thank you once again - we need more companies like yourselves in this country. 10/10 Customer service. SP, Hornchurch
