Ergonomic Office Chairs

Ergonomic office chairs should help you to increase

back and neck support and also help to improve your

posture and help prevent slouching. Many employees of

the office often experience back pain because they sit

in their chair for extended periods of time. Doing

this will increase stress in the spine, neck, arms,

shoulders, and even the legs. By getting a chair

that isn't ergonomically friendly, you could end up

aggravating any existing conditions you may have.

The ergonomic chair you select should be an inch wider

or more than your hips or thighs on both sides of the

chair. The seat pan on the chair should be contoured

for equal weight distribution and also to provide

maximum comfort. You should also make sure that your

back arches against the chair, as this will help to

prevent slumping.

A helpful feature to ergonomic office chairs is the

adjustable height mechanism. This can be a great essential

for busy office meeting rooms or conference rooms where

different people use the same chairs. Most chairs that

offer teh height mechanism will also allow you to fine

tune the back rest of the chair in all directions. If

your chair doesn't have a back rest, you can simply use

a pillow or cushion to support your lower back.

All in all, ergonomic office chairs are ideal for those

who are at their desk extended periods of time. These

chairs don't cost a lot of money either, yet they will

provide you a lot in terms of comfort and support. If

your office is in need of office chairs, the ergonomic

chairs are definitely worth adding to your office.
