Tips on How to Make the Office Chairs More Comfortable

Whether you work from home or in the office, you know that sitting in the chairs isn't really comfortable as it seems to be, especially if the chairs are of poor quality. We all have to sit in the chairs, and the chairs may just feel right or not comfortable. The proper office chairs, I am guessing, is the chair that can be adjusted to the most comfortable sitting posture and offer the best back support. Is your chair comfortable enough? Here are some tips to make our sitting more comfortable.

One of the easiest ways to make the sitting comfortable is to invest in an ultra comfortable office chair. Ergonomic chairs are such chairs worth investment, especially for modern office where office staff has to work for at least eight hours one day. Make sure the ergonomic chairs we choose have the best lumbar back support or try it to see whether the chair curve just follows naturally the curve of our lower back. Never try to save extra dollars by dragging over a chair from somewhere else in our house for a cheap office chair. For less health risk, we need a comfy chair.

Have a check of the levers or the knobs on the chairs. The lever of ergonomic chair allows us to unlock the chair and gain some movement when we sit on it. This can just reduce any discomfort or stiffness when we are seated in it. For those who suffer from back pain, a chair with “open” angles, such as back rest movement can offer us much better experience. Some of the chairs can move the seat pad and back rest together, others may move the chair parts separately.

For comfortable sitting, we also need to pay attention to our sitting posture. We need to sit right. Sit straight with our feet on the floor. This is the basic step. Right sitting posture can reduce many uncomfortable sitting positions. Remember to check and see whether you sit right and then check the chair.

If we sit right in office chairs with right levers yet we still sit uncomfortably, try to add some extra back support or footrest. Ensure enough support for more padding so that our back can be well supported. Add a footrest under the desk and keep the feet in the proper position.

If you've tried everything above and still fail to get a comfortable sitting, maybe it's time for a new chair. Expect to spend a few hundred dollars for a good chair.
