Harwick Deluxe Ergonomic Kneeling Chair [HL-131]

This adjustable kneeling chair is specially designed to relieve spinal compression while you are sitting. The thighs are dropped to an angle of about 60-70 degrees from vertical (as opposed to 90 degrees when sitting in a normal chair). Kneeling chairs open up the angle between the thigh and the torso, making it easier to retain the natural curvature of the spine. This posture changes the stress distribution of the human body in comparison with the sitting position of an ordinary chair. Because the angle of the hip joint is between that of sitting and standing, it allows the spine to be in a more "neutral" or middle-of-range position. Because the knees are lower than the pelvis, the normal curve is restored to the lower spine, which reduces stress to the lower lumbar vertebrae. This particular kneeling chair from Harwick features pneumatic seat height adjustment, whereas most kneeling chairs offer manual height adjustment. Anyone with back problems will appreciate the comfort of this chair. Ten year limited warranty from Harwick. Dimensions: Seat Pad: 17"W x 13"D. Knee Pad: 17"W x 10"D. Seat height range: 19"H - 25"H. This ergonomic kneeling chair normally ships within 1-2 business days from our PA warehouse.
