BackStrong - an office chair with optimal back support

Most of our lives are at work - we spend at least 8 hours sitting in offices. It cannot positively affect our posture and general health. Over time, office workers experience pain in the lumbar area, knee joints, and cervical spine. It is easier to prevent the onset of the disease than to deal with its consequences. The same idea is followed by the most famous Hollywood orthopedist Denis Colonello, who invented the innovative office chair BackStrong, the lower part of which is attached to the top by a hinged mount, which helps to adjust the chair to the position of the user's body at the current time.

Features of the novelty

Modern society suffers from diseases of a sedentary lifestyle that is familiar to practically anyone who stays in a static position for many hours. Some hundred years ago, humanity was constantly in motion - active life, physical labor, constant movement - all this did not allow the muscles to atrophy, and the posture to spoil. Progress has affected not only the specifics of the work of a person, who now should not work physically, but also on the state of his health. Some are struggling with the consequences of a sedentary lifestyle, doing sports, moving more, although this does not always lead to the desired result. It is always worth paying attention to the root cause of such a situation - namely, on the furniture that we use.

Previously, we talked about one interesting invention from the company SEKANG ASC - Swingseat active swing chair, which, according to the authors of the design, with constant use, should improve the posture of users, to remove the pain from the lumbar department and prevent their subsequent appearance (more about it you can see here). For Ukraine, such chairs are still a rara avis, as well as those about which we will tell you now.

We are accustomed to being in a static position at work in the office. Even armchairs or chairs rarely assume a posture change. As many years of research have shown, many office workers are increasingly faced with painful, long-lasting pains. Suffer it not only the muscles, but also the joints, which affects our general condition. The consequences of sedentary work are deteriorating health, feeling of weakness after the workday, accumulation of fatigue, and hence - nervous breakdowns and subsequent depressive states.

Today's novelty has become a common result of the most famous in America chiropractor Denis Colonello and the company LA Product Design. Many Hollywood actors and American athletes, due to their specifics of work, often suffer from back pain and joints. Because of this, they have to turn to profiled doctors. One of the best in the country is Denis. For many years of his practice, he literally put many celebrities on the feet, so the first subjects who got the present chair were they. During his life, Dr. Colonello has seen many celebrities who suffer from illnesses caused by the wrong posture. That is why he had the idea of a revolutionary office chair, which engineers and designers from the LA Product Design team were able to embody.

The main feature of the novelty is the used technology Sit-In-Motion - "sit-in-motion". The lower part of the chair is not fixed firmly, but as it moves with you. No matter how you turn, the chair will repeat your movements. Thus, the seat and part of the back as if "floating" relative to the rest of the upper part, fixed statically. By itself, the chair will not move, only with a person sitting in it. This principle of action is similar to the React mechanism used in the GT Racer Shadow X-0712 chairs, which adjusts to your movements, slightly pushing forward the seat and deflecting the back when you lean back. For the softness of the seat and back, they use a layer (2.54 - 3 cm) foam filler. The angle of the deviation of the chair upwards and downwards from the central axis is 6 ° in each direction. The height of the back is 63.5 cm, the seat width is 53.3 cm, the seat depth is 49.5 cm, the armchair width is 76 cm, the width of the armrests is 8.9 cm, and the length is 25 cm.

In addition to the movable lower part, the armchair has fixed armrests that can be thrown up if they are not needed. There was also no standard parts - the five-edged cross-section ends with wide rollers, which allow the chair to move floor coverings. Dr. Colonello recommends using his creation to those suffering from such diseases as: lumbar, cervical pain, shoulder girdle numbness, scoliosis, fatigue, coccydonia (manifested in pain in the coccyx), muscle tension, arthritis, osteoporosis, hernia, ischaes etc. In addition, he recommends using it to those who spend a lot of time watching the computer at home or working in the office.
