Being chained to your desk, whether at home or in the office, can mean being productive, but it certainly doesn’t bode well for your body. For this reason, a completely new science, known as ergonomics, was born and applied to chair design. The discipline focuses on finding ways to ensure that despite the many hours you spend sitting in front of the computer, it will not affect your spine or your overall health.

Among the most famous ergonomically designed chairs is the Varier Variable Balans chair, the original kneeling chair.

Characteristics

Developed by Hans Christian Mengshoel together with designer Peter Opsvik in 1979, the Varier Variable Balans chair is believed to be the benchmark when it comes to kneeling chair design. It was created so that when you sit down you appear to be kneeling. This is because the thighs are positioned at an angle of approximately 60 to 70 degrees with the shins resting on a padded “footrest” and supporting some of your body weight.

Apart from this, the Varier Variable Balans chair offers additional unique features. For starters, it encourages active seating through forward-sloping seats and curved runners, which allow for smooth rocking motion. Its design also allows for variations in movement, which is important in the science of ergonomics.

The idea behind the Varier Variable Balans chair is simple: lean forward as you work and rock back as you relax. The important thing is in whatever position you are in, your spine is perfectly and fully supported.

Profits

The Varier Variable Balans chair was designed to reduce the stress on the lower back that results from prolonged sitting. This is accomplished by placing the body in an inclined position, which forces you to straighten your back and maintain the “S” position to promote spinal alignment.

In addition, the unique design of the chair will also force the abdominal and upper thigh muscles to work continuously while taking pressure off the lower lumbar area and preventing strain on the shoulders and neck.

Of course, with your back straight and your body in constant motion, you will eventually reap the following health benefits:

– Improved blood and oxygen circulation

– Increased oxygen intake.

– Improved mental concentration and creativity.

– Increased alertness

– Higher energy

It is not surprising that the Varier Variable Balans chair is not only ideal for adults, but also recommended for teenagers, as its benefits improve the performance of their school assignments.

Wellness issues

If you suffer from low back pain and poor posture, you know it’s time to invest in a suitable chair. With its modern and versatile design, the Varier Variable Balans chair delivers on its promise to improve your posture and promote overall health.
