Looking for the best ergonomic office chair for work? The best chair for bad backs? How about a chair that burns extra calories while you sit, or one that works your core, stengthens your back muscles, improves your posture?
Varier has created this simple one page PDF that describes the The major benefits of Variér seating, including:
FOCUS
Increased oxygen supply and freedom to move
subconsciously results in improved concentration
and ability to focus.
NECK
Kinetic activity in the upper muscles of the neck help reduce neck strain and prevent muscle tension headaches.
LUMBAR AREA
Proper spinal curvature is achieved “naturally” eliminating the need for a
backrest. A free torso having to balance itself engages, trains and strengthens core muscles and reduces tendency to slouch.
CHEST CAVITY
This sitting position, similar to walking upright, frees the lungs and upper organs and allows for its deeper breathing.
ARMS
Movement helps prevent problems of the upper and lower arms; brachiaglia,
tendonitis, carpal tunnel syndrome.
LEGS
Because the design permits movement, circulation in the legs is improved and heaviness and swelling from static sitting decreased.
ABDOMINAL
Continuous movement burns up to 320 additional calories per day.
FORWARD
TILTING SEAT PAN
The specific slope of the seat rotates the hips forward, opens the angle between
upper and lower body and decreases damaging compressive loads on the low back.
ROCKING BASE
The curved runners prevent static
postures and stimulate movement allowing a range of postures necessary to spinal health.
SHIN SUPPORTS
To keep the body from sliding forward, part of the load is transferred
to the shins, (not knees). Keeping one leg extended helps control
motion. Alternately extending each leg periodically allows for extended sitting.
