Healthy office chairs for healthy sitting

On average, a person sits six hours a day. The human body is more made for running. The one-sided stress caused by long periods of sitting has consequences for health. Many missed days in the office are caused by back problems. Tension in the muscles causes back pain, and the neck, neck, shoulders and lumbar spine are particularly susceptible. However, conditions such as hemorrhoids can also be a result of sitting in traditional chairs for long periods of time.

The healthy office chair – the most important features

Desk work is anything but healthy. Because if you sit, you sin – science has long since discovered that. It is therefore important to have the right office chair. What characterizes a healthy office chair, we will explain to you briefly and concisely in the following points.

A healthy office chair follows the movement of your back: whether you bend forward, turn to the side or lean backwards, the health chair orients itself to the various movements and adapts to them. The targeted change between the different sitting positions relieves the spine and intervertebral discs in the long term.

A healthy office chair encourages dynamic sitting: A health chair is built in such a way that it always keeps the pelvis and back in minimal movement. Movable modules actively adjust and spring back when sitting. The constant, tiny, fine changes in the sitting position keep the body with its muscles, tendons and ligaments relaxed and flexible.

A healthy office chair is height adjustable: A health chair should always be able to be ergonomically adapted to the individual body size and shape. Ideally, the feet should be relaxed on the floor when sitting, at least three fingers fit between the back of the knees and the front edge of the chair, and the upper and lower arms form a right angle with the tabletop. The backrest should also be adjustable. Make sure that the lumbar support is at waist level.

A healthy office chair prevents back problems: Back pain due to lack of exercise is often a result of rigid sitting. Statically crammed in between the seat and the backrest, the back stiffens. Healthy, back-friendly office chairs can help by allowing more movement when sitting. The connective tissue remains supple, the intervertebral discs are nourished and the blood can circulate.

A healthy office chair alleviates existing issues:Back problems due to lack of exercise are often a result of rigid sitting. A healthy office chair does away with static sitting and instead promotes ergonomically optimal sitting in motion. With many changing sitting positions, the intervertebral discs are well nourished through osmotic fluid exchange and thus function better in the long term as a cushioning element of the springy backbone.

Active sitting is healthy

The patented work chairs from HARA CHAIR were developed in Korea in collaboration with doctors and scientists. But why are the HARA CHAIR models medical office chairs? And how do you even recognize a health chair? Quite simply: Healthy office chairs support the natural movements of the person sitting. The divided seating system from HARA CHAIR is based on a highly mobile seating system. With the dynamic technology of HARA CHAIR, the body can swing freely. Where there is no pressure, nothing is jammed. The blood can circulate freely. Even in the static situation of sitting, the body remains flexible. The fine movements of the two-part seat relieve tension. At the same time, the active seating system strengthens the deep-seated pelvic floor and back muscles. This stabilizes the spine and nourishes and relieves the intervertebral discs. Even a slight soreness can set in at first if you are not used to sitting on a HARA CHAIR. Because healthy office chairs offer more than just a rocking function for the backrest. The entire body is challenged and encouraged.

Health Chairs For The Office

In general, orthopaedists and ergonomists recommend dynamic sitting. This means changing the seating position as often as possible. The split seating system of the HARA CHAIR health chairs naturally adjusts to the ideal angle of the pelvis of men and women, forcing the body to keep changing postures. This can be supported by the divided backrest, which is integrated into the NIE model. The split back support has direct contact with the ribs depending on the sitting position. The backrest gives slightly when you lean against it and moves with your back and shoulder blades.

Lordosis support: relieve the lumbar spine

This is different with the ZEN-LS, ZEN and CAE models, whose closed backrest effectively supports the lumbar region in particular. The HARA CHAIR model ZEN-LS even has an integrated upholstery. This lordosis support relieves the lumbar spine. The ZEN-LS model is particularly suitable for people with a slight to severe hollow back or after a herniated disc. The ergonomic shapes of the ZEN and CAE models also support the loins as well as the shoulders and are also very comfortable thanks to their padding. The CAE model, an executive chair, is ideal for tall and heavy people to sit on due to its wide seat, high backrest and stable construction.

Which model is “the” healthy office chair depends on your personal requirements. Body weight plays a role here, as does the individual symptoms. If you have already had a herniated disc in the lumbar spine, you could benefit from a lumbar support. You can try out for yourself at home with a rolled up towel or pillow whether you find the S padding in the lower back comfortable.
