Are recliner sofas good for your back?

Are recliner sofas good for your back? It depends
on a few factors, namely firmness relative to
your weight and position. If you are heavier, it
should be firmer, if lighter, less firm. These
factors affect how it will conform to your spinal
curves and support them or not. If you raise the
legs without reclining, the curve flattens in
your lower back, which isnt good if you sustain
it for long periods.
Studies show that the worlds most significant
form of disability today is lower back pain and
its estimated that over 80 of us will encounter
back pain at one point in our lives. Research
shows that when sitting up straight and your
spine poised at a 90-degree angle, is one of the
most damaging postures to your backs
health. Placing a small throw pillow behind your
waist and a rolled-up towel or neckbone pillow
behind your neck will support your curves and
help make the sitting less stressful on your
body. The important thing is not to spend a lot
of time sitting, though, either reclining or
upright! Why
