Ergonomic stools, Dynamic seating, freedom of movement

Ergonomic stools are designed to provide optimal support for your body while you work or sit, which can reduce the pain and fatigue you typically experience after long periods of sitting. Dynamic sitting allows the intervertebral discs to load and unload in a natural way. This promotes the supply of nutrients to the intervertebral discs, which has a positive influence on the entire spine. In addition, dynamic sitting increases blood circulation, not only in the body, but also in the brain

Ergonomic stools are different from traditional stools. Traditional stools require you to sit with your legs at 90 degrees and your back straight, which is not the natural posture of the human body. Ergonomic stools, on the other hand, allow you to sit in a more open and relaxed position, allowing your body to remain in motion while sitting.

Backapp Smart

The Backapp Smart stool is an improved version of the original Backapp, designed by Dr. Freddy Johnsen to provide a very comfortable sitting experience. You sit with your feet on a footrest padded with soft cushioning material, which allows for an ergonomic sitting posture. The stool, to encourage a gentle oscillating movement that stimulates the back and stomach muscles, helping to improve posture and reduce fatigue. This movement is caused by the constant search for balance, which stimulates the muscles that support the spine. The Backapp Smart stool offers a unique experience, allowing its users to feel better while working; as one user testifies: “I have often felt as if my spine was breathing when I sit on the Backapp stool in front of my PC.  The feeling that the lower back takes the same natural position as when standing” (see Field Trial Finland 2017 scientific study). The base of the Backapp stools is made of 100% recycled aluminum (300 Coca-Cola cans). Most of the production and all assembly is done in Anderstorp, Sweden, the manufacturer’s headquarters.

AERIS SWOPPER

The stool that keeps you in motion

AERIS SWOPPER a dynamic seat thanks to 3D ergonomics. Created in 1997, it has evolved with new technologies and still surprises us. A true “health asset” Aeris Swopper has become famous for its elegant design and its true Aeris 3D technology. This stool follows the user’s movements in all three directions: forward, sideways and even vertically, providing a dynamic and ergonomic sitting experience. Through its vertical swinging motion or “Swopping”, similar to walking or running, the intervertebral discs are effectively nourished and relieved. Instead of a backrest, the strong muscles support the back, which helps reduce tension and promotes a better mood. It follows you and your body, not the other way around, and thus supports intuitive movements. The new swopper was on display at the Ergonoma journal stand at the last Workspace expo in Paris.

ONGO, for active postures at all times

The ONGO ergonomic stool has been our favorite since its creation in 2010 by Eberhard Lenz. This ergonomic stool is designed to strengthen the back muscles and encourage movement even when sitting. With the ONGO sit-stand balance stool, you can sit comfortably while staying active. The rounded leg allows the stool to follow your every movement, activating your muscles and increasing blood circulation. The ball in the foot provides discreet and audible feedback when there is a change in the stool’s tilt, allowing you to lean in any direction. The ONGO ergonomic stool is an ideal solution for those looking to improve their posture and health while working while seated.
