Today, in industrialized countries, many people sit most of the time from waking up to going to bed again. They sit while having breakfast while going to work in a car or bus, in a school classroom, at meetings, at the office, at dinner, and at home while watching television. Many people also sit in front of work operating machines with new technologies developed to replace manual work. Even though sitting requires less physical effort than standing or walking, it puts much pressure on the waist area. The combined effects of lifestyle and work that require sitting can cause many health problems.

An ergonomic chair is a chair that is carefully designed to fit the contours and movements of your body. In today’s world, when many of us spend a lot of time at our desks, the importance of a chair that can improve our comfort and health cannot be overstated. The best ergonomic chairs prioritize adaptability, catering to diverse body types and postures, enhancing your work environment and productivity.

A chair is ergonomic only if selected according to the body dimensions, workstation, and tasks of the worker or group of workers. Ergonomic chairs are designed for a variety of people, not one person. For example, the chair may be too high, the seat too short, and the armrests too wide for a short, slender person. The chair is not designed for a specific task or workstation setting.
