The Ball Chair is a new and exciting ergonomic chair for the
office was designed by a group of physicians, health practitioners and engineers
in Switzerland to promote correct posture, to help strengthen the muscles in the
abdominal area and the spine, and to take stress off the back and neck.
The egg-shaped ball chair does not compress discs in the spine,
like a regular chair.
Most people who sit in front of a computer or at a
desk for prolonged time periods with a regular office chair assume poor posture.
It results in flattening of the lumbar spine and altered head carriage. This can
result in chronic lower back pain, weak abdominal muscles, and neck problems
that often lead to headaches.
Prolonged sitting can also cause poor circulation in
the legs resulting in painful leg cramps or the sensation of the legs falling
asleep.
The Ball Chair ergonomic chair for the office enables
individuals to achieve proper posture. The egg-shaped flexible ball chair allows
free movement of the body - up and down, back and forth, and side to side – for
the body to find the best posture to relieve and prevent back pain.
An award-winning product at the world's most prestigious
International Invention Conference. The ErgoChair ergonomic chair won Best New
Invention in the furniture category, out of 1,000 entries from 42 countries. The
ErgoChair is patented in the U.S. and Europe.

Here's what people are saying about the
Ball Chair!
“Sitting can be hazardous to our health. More and
more time is spent sitting in front of computers than ever before. As a health
care provider, I see the results of this type of sitting every day in my
clinical practice: neck pain, back pain, shoulder pain, arm and hand pain,
numbness in the fingers and forearms, hemorrhoids, weak abdominal muscles, eye
strain. The list goes on and the afflictions are affecting an every-younger
segment of the population. An important approach to reducing these afflictions
of sitting is to develop better ideas about sitting itself.
This is the reason why I am so interested in the
ErgoChair Ball Chair . The ErgoChair Ball Chair represents a
new approach to sitting. Sitting in the ErgoChair can actually enhance
one's health. The dynamics of sitting in the ErgoChair facilitates
spinal health and the circulation of cerebral-spinal fluid. Pressure is reduced
on the spinal discs. The ErgoChair helps condition and strengthen the
abdominal and back muscles.”

“Just this past month I had a major neck surgery, and
have been housebound for the past four weeks. Quite frankly, it is my opinion
that your ErgoChair has allowed me to comfortably do so, even while my
cervical spine was healing. The chair seems to entirely take the strain off my
back and neck; something I suspect is due to its automatically letting the spine
return to its natural, anatomical position, unlike most conventional desk
chairs.
It would be my recommendation that anyone who has a
back or neck problem would likely to find this product to improve their overall
condition, and that they should get one without delay.
Also, I am quite impressed with the Ergo
ball seat, and its dual use. Many patients will find this physical therapy
aide to be invaluable. “
