So what exactly should you be looking for when you purchase office chairs? Chairs for use in an office environment should be adjustable, user-friendly, comfortable, supportive of the back and spacious enough to allow unrestricted movement. These factors work together to prevent stiffness and promote proper circulation.
It is also important to consider the height of the chair's seat in relation to both the floor and the working surface. Ideally, the chair's occupant should have both feet on the floor with their knees no higher than their hips. As for the backrest; it should be as high as the occupant's lower shoulder blades and fitted at a gently sloping angle.
Working at an office desk is a primarily forwards-facing activity, much like eating. If you were to do so in a chair that has a backward-sloping seat you would automatically be forced to hunch forward in a strained posture that would place plenty of strain on your lower back. Office workers often develop backaches because they either have the wrong chair or maintain an incorrect posture when sitting in their chair. This frequently leads to increased spinal stress that manifests in arm-, back-, shoulder- and leg pain. Furthermore, any incorrect chair also has the potential to aggravate existing conditions.
It is however important to remember that an ergonomic office chair will automatically result in good posture. The right chair only makes it easier, whereas the wrong one makes it near impossible.
