Studies show that saddle seat stools offer numerous health benefits over standard office seating. Saddle seats promote healthy posture and neutral spine alignment because the slope of the seat naturally takes pressure off of the lower back and shifts your body weight to your stronger thighs. In doing so, the shift in weight distribution promotes 'active sitting' by engaging core muscles and loosens up tight hip flexors that contribute to back pain. Adjust the pitch of the seat forward for even more active sitting.
Everyone across all industries can benefit from ergonomic features of saddle stools. Doctors and medical professionals, but also dentists, beauticians, artists, and vet techs will all appreciate the reduction in fatigue and increase in mobility. The molded foam seat cushion is upholstered in an easy-to-clean black antimicrobial vinyl that is rated for healthcare settings. Heavy duty aluminum base is 22" in diameter to fit perfectly in small exam rooms and supports users up to 300-pounds. This stool easily moves with your body on five swivel casters. Standard seat height range is 22" - 29-1/2"H from the center of the seat to the floor for use with drafting height desks, tall counters or in exam settings. Need something a little taller? Purchase the optional footring kit with taller optional gas cylinder to increase the seat height range to 23" - 31-1/2".
