It is very lucky that all offices and work spaces come standardly equipped with trivial items such as the caviar dispensing vending machine, the luxury massage chairs for every mahogany desk and of course the employee lounge with the built in jacuzzi, because they make working at an office at least a little bit more bearable than going to work at say a construction site. To anyone that has never worked at an office before – that was a joke.
But even though what I wrote was entirely pulled from an alternative fantasy realm, you have to admit that it sounds better than the truth which is most corporations would charge you extra for the sugar you use in your coffee if they could get away with it. Maybe I am exaggerating and a lot of workspaces aren’t quite the hellholes I am making them out to be, but there are a few that really skimp in areas that really matter, like the office chairs.
Anyone that has worked at a desk for any duration of time will attest to how important a good quality posture improving chair is in their day to day work life, and how much grief and misery it will save you since you won’t have to go home with your back constantly feeling like it was tied in knots. A large part of the reason why the posture improving office chair is so important is because it is generally a very useful product that can help you be more productive and feel more comfortable while in front of your keyboard. Unfortunately, they are still somehow being compared to the type of office chairs most offices have. Yes, those chairs that are just some material over slabs of stone held together by the grief and misery of every employee that has sat on it before you… Or at least that’s what they seem like.
The posture improving chair helps you hold your spine’s natural shape for long durations of time without any discomfort. This lets you sit comfortably without constantly having to shift your weight or adjust your way of sitting. While at the desk this takes pressure off of your shoulders and ribcage and can let you place your feet at their natural parallel position level on the floor. But, the results are even more apparent at home since even though it does not work overnight, you will quickly feel a considerable weight off the shoulders and notice that you are not coming home as tired anymore. The longer you use them, the more you realize how much of a lifesaver these chairs are to any office worker that values his spine.
