OrthoAir Orthopedic Chair

Blending modern design with unparalleled comfort, the mesh back OrthoAir Orthopedic Chair is perfect for both work and leisure. With extensive adjustability, this chair excels in offering optimal support for both lower and upper back without breaking your budget. What is an orthopedic office chair?

The height adjustable backrest, free-float mechanism lockable in any position, multi-adjustable armrests, height adjustable backrest and mesh headrest, are just some of the features found on this state-of-the-art orthopedic chair. Available with and without a headrest, the OrthoAir has a 120kg weight rating and carries a 5-year warranty.

1. Backrest adjustment

We work in different positions, and we all have a preferred seated posture.

The backrest on the OrthoAir can be adjusted in three distinctive ways to specifically suit your spine and prevent or reduce lower and upper back pain.

The free-float mechanism enables you to adjust the backrest angle to match your preferred working posture. The backrest can be securely locked in any position, or it can be left in an unlocked, free-floating mode. In this mode, the backrest remains in constant contact with your back and adapts to your movements. The backrest and lumbar support are both height adjustable, allowing you to position the lumbar support precisely where you need it.

2. Seat Angle Adjustment

The OrthoAir is designed with an adjustable seat angle, permitting a forward slope of up to 5 degrees. This adjustment lowers the knees in relation to the hips, thereby “opening” the pelvis.

Sitting with an open pelvis facilitates a more natural curvature of the spine and reduces the pressure on the lumbar discs. Consequently, this reduces the probability of experiencing lower back pain during prolonged periods of sitting.

Important:

The OrthoAir does not have a seat slider for adjusting the depth of the seat. If you are above average height with long legs or have a coccyx-related problem, the absence of a seat slider may render this chair unsuitable for you. In such instances, we suggest opting for one of these chairs that is equipped with a seat slider. 

3. Armrest adjustment

The armrests on the OrthoAir are multi-adjustable, allowing you to position the supporting pads for optimum comfort.

In addition to vertical height adjustment, the arm pads can be adjusted horizontally (depth), and also pivoted inwards or outwards.

The OrthoAir has a Free-Float mechanism that promotes Dynamic Sitting.

orthoair orthopedic office chairDynamic sitting occurs in an office chair that is fitted with a mechanism that allows the angle between the backrest and seat to change. By continuously changing this angle, you automatically stimulate, or activate various muscles in your lower back, core and legs. As a result, the blood flow through these muscles increases, bringing oxygen and other nutrients to the muscles and carrying away the waste products of muscle metabolism. By doing so, muscle fatigue and it’s associated pain is reduced, particularly in the lower back, core and legs.

An Orthopedic Chair is recommended for anyone who has chronic lower back pain. An orthopedic chair must have a forward-tilting seat function that reduces the rotation of the pelvis when sitting down. This decreases the disc pressure in the lumbar region of the back while you are seated. Compared to an ergonomic chair, an orthopedic chair has additional features to ensure the chair can be adjusted to specifically address chronic lower back pain. What is an orthopedic chair?
