Hello & Welcome,
Over the years I've discovered unique ways to enhance both the mental and physical benefits you can get from a well-engineered chair. Many of our breakthroughs have come from our ergonomic consultants, industry partners, suggestions from you, our customers, and from just being an "ergonomic comfort guy".

So, after numerous requests, I've decided to share these pearls of wisdom in a monthly newsletter. This month I'll talk about some simple things you can do at your corporate or home office to cope with nagging back pain and avoid it altogether. Work shouldn't hurt!
Tell me what you think....

I can't help noticing the wildly creative ways people actually sit in their chairs. The slouch takes on so many different forms I've lost count. And every once in a while I see someone sitting with their leg under them as if they need more height to see their computer screen.

Not good! Posture is the cornerstone of comfort and pain prevention, but most people don't know what correct posture even is. Do you? Click on the tip header to find out.

The designers and engineers at Herman Miller are amazing. If you already use one of their wildly popular Aeron chairs, you know what I mean. Well guess what...they found a way to improve on excellence with a new lumbar support system that molds itself to the contours of your body.

It's called PostureFit and it is, without a doubt, the most comfortable lower back support I've ever experienced. I'm a sloucher by nature but this thing has improved my posture immeasurably.

The PostureFit Upgrade Kit is super-simple to install and, for only $90, it's super-simple to afford. Click on the link to find out more. Your back will love you for it.
