Kneeling Chairs
The original kneeling chairs! Shape Posture Seating were one of the first to introduce the Variable kneeling chair in the UK over 25 years ago! Whilst the range has increased, the principles remain the same - a perfectly balanced posture!
Sitting on a kneeling stool encourages the body to form an open posture In a conventional office chair you are normally sitting with a closed angle of 90° or less, whereby an ergonomic Kneeling Chair encourages you to sit in an open angled position of about 110°. This places the body in a posture as close to a standing posture as possible, keeping the pelvic angle open and maintaining the natural curve to the spine, relieving compression of your spine and its discs as well as tension in your lower back and leg muscles.
Another benefit is that by adopting the kneeling seated position it allows your diaphragm to move efficiently and promote breathing and blood circulation.
