Beyond Back Pain: How Ergonomic Chairs Improve Posture

People who sit in offices for long periods are prone to various health problems. Due to prolonged sitting and standing, general white-collar workers are more likely to overload the lumbar spine and have a higher incidence rate. According to research, when working hard, the pressure on the waist is nearly 7 times higher than when lying down. The role of ergonomic chairs is to solve this “pain point” to a large extent. As a “corrector” for sitting posture, the core parts of an ergonomic chair are the lumbar support, headrest, and armrests. As for parts such as mesh material, seat depth, and five-star leg material, they can only be called bonus points, not mandatory items. This article will introduce you to some ergonomic chairs that are suitable for office workers to help you maintain a healthy posture.

Many office workers like to use a pillow or place a lumbar support on a chair to support their waist. This shows that lumbar support is a necessity for office workers who sit for long periods.

When using a chair without a headrest to work, the head is completely unsupported, and when the head is bent at 60°, the load on the neck will be as high as 27kg. When using an ergonomic chair with a headrest to work, if you can lean your head lightly on the headrest, your head will receive an upward and forward force, the weight on your neck will be greatly reduced, and the cervical spine can be maintained original shape.
