Is Work A Pain In Your [insert body part]?

Most office chairs are not designed with your physical health in mind, so sitting all day can cause pain throughout your body, especially in the lower back and rump regions. The way we see it, you can deal with this a few different ways:

A) Gain 50 lbs. to increase your posterior padding

B) Sit on a butt donut (a.k.a. The Donut Cushion)

C) Choose an ergonomically designed, eco-friendly chair

 
The Seat Of Luxury: Benefits Of The Aforementioned Chair

More support, less pain. In a poll of office workers conducted by Spine-health.com, 70% of respondents said that their backs felt significantly worse (52%) or somewhat worse (18%) at the end of their workday as compared to the start of their day. An ergonomic chair can lessen or eliminate pain caused by long periods of sitting.  

Sophisticated design. Can’t afford a Ferrari 430 Scuderia? You can still be the envy of your co-workers with a sleek—but far less pricey—set of wheels. 

Eco-responsibility.  Conscientious designers are creating super comfy chairs that incorporate eco-materials like recycled steel and sustainable wood.  

Achieving LEED certification. Green office chairs contribute to the U.S. Green Building Council's eco-efficiency rating for buildings.
