Saddle seats

A saddle chair is an ergonomic office chair with a seat shaped like a saddle. The saddle-shaped seat opens up the hip angle and helps the body sit more upright and in its natural S-curve, which reduces strain on the back, neck, and shoulders. Saddle chairs are often used in professions where good ergonomics and mobility are important, such as in dentistry, healthcare, beauty, and office work.

The main advantage of a saddle chair is that it promotes a more natural sitting position. When the hips are at a more open angle, the core muscles are engaged and the back is kept in a more neutral position. This can help reduce back problems, improve posture, and make it easier to work at a desk for longer periods of time.

Saddle chairs are particularly well-suited for work environments where you need to move around a lot and work in close proximity to people or work surfaces. They are often used in settings such as dental offices, clinics, podiatry practices, beauty salons, and laboratories, but also work well in offices or other work environments where ergonomics and mobility are important.

The choice between a saddle chair with or without a backrest depends on how you work. A saddle chair without a backrest encourages a more active sitting posture and greater freedom of movement. A saddle chair with a backrest, on the other hand, can provide extra support during longer work periods and may be a good option for those who want to alternate between active sitting and back support.
