• THE KNEELING CHAIR
    The Benefits

    a. The sloping seat keeps the spine in a healthy S shape 
    b. Designed to open up the angle of the hips, encouraging a lordotic posture 
    

    The Disadvantages

    a. Puts pressure on the knees, keeping them in a fixed position. 
    b. Limits your ability to move your lower body restricting blood flow 
    c. Does not provide any support for the arms – our arms are surprising heavy and if you sit for long periods of time without supporting your arms, tension can quickly build up in your neck, shoulders and upper back, arms and wrists, increasing your risk of frozen shoulder and RSI. 
    

    The lack of adjustability & movement resrtriction make it a big no for me.

    But then, I did just drop a lot of money on a new chair, so I'm looking to reinforce my decision as much as possible.

    I currently have a very comfy chair but no desk to work at. With WFH looking increasingly more long term I'm going to sort myself out with a desk before long. My back is starting to hurt!
