Ergonomic Office Chairs
2

• Ergonomic office chairs are essential for a
  comfortable work environment and productivity. An
  appropriate and well-crafted desk chair will help
  to more easily position your body in your desk at
  all times, and make seated sitting easier on your
  lower back. But how can you identify the proper
  kind of office chair to suit your home office set
  up? Many people consulted professional ergonomic
  specialists and medical professionals for
  suggestions to aid you in finding the perfect
  chair to suit your office. Below, you will find
  some tips to guide you in finding the right
  Ergonomic Office Chair.

• First, keep in mind that proper ergonomic office
  chairs are made to minimize strain on the spine.
  Your spine is supported by your lumbar or
  cervical spine. The average person sits at a desk
  for approximately five to eight hours each day,
  so it is important that your spine is kept in
  proper alignment and in line with your hips and
  legs throughout the day. Most desks are designed
  with evenly spaced arms and a curve from neck to
  fingertips that promotes good posture.

• Next, most ergonomic office chairs have a seat
  that is wide enough to allow you to be
  comfortable, but not overly deep. If the seat is
  too deep, you may find it difficult to breathe.
  You should also watch out for the lumbar support.
  Some lumbar segments are meant to move up and
  down independently, while others are meant to
  remain in a fixed position while seated. These
  features are an important part of good spine
  health.

• Lastly, when choosing the best office chair, you
  need to pay close attention to the fabric and
  frame style. Fabric is often more breathable than
  metal, so you will find yourself sweating less as
  you work for long periods of time. A well crafted
  leather frame is also very comfortable and will
  provide a good amount of support to your spine.

• Ergonomic desk chairs come in many different
  styles and colors. Ergonomic chairs typically
  have wider seats and larger armrests than
  traditional chairs. The large armrests give you
  the advantage of extra space to reach items, such
  as a monitor, without having to move to the side
  of the chair. On the other hand, if you prefer
  standard desk chairs, the additional height of
  the seats will help keep your feet on the floor.

8

• Most ergonomic office chair designs feature
  either vented or ventilated seating. Both of
  these types of models will allow airflow to the
  air inlets. This will help keep you more
  comfortable. However, if you suffer from a bad
  case of asthma, you should look for models that
  have additional controls and features to prevent
  your air passages from being compromised.

9

• As mentioned above, a major consideration is the
  price range of the chair. Ergonomic chairs are
  not inexpensive, but you can find a good option
  in all price ranges. Before you begin shopping,
  be sure to determine how much you are able to
  spend. The cheapest chairs may not be the most
  comfortable. The most expensive ones can have
  several features, such as built-in footrests and
  a padded head rest, which can make a big
  difference in comfort.

• Finally, make sure the chair has a tilt and turn
  mechanism. Some people may wish to be able to
  tilt the chair or move its armrest in order to
  adjust the alignment of their spine. Some
  ergonomic chairs allow you to make adjustments
  with only your feet, while others require you to
  turn the entire seat forwards and backwards. If
  you have difficulty reaching the backrest, try a
  chair with a built-in pull down lever.
