Hey guys,
As the computer age we all live in rapidly progresses, i find myself sitting at my desk hunched over my laptop for longer and longer periods of time.
Not a day ago, mum told me that my shoulders were drooping forward, and my posture was looking slumped. This got me worried, the last thing i want is a hump back by the age of 20! Sitting on my half broken 29 dollar Ikea chair probably does not help my cause. So ive decided, with my mothers consent and support, to purchase a new 'ergonomic' chair for my desk.
Really im looking for a super ergonomic chair to help releive the stress of sitting at my desk for hours on end. At the desk i work from text books, aswell as my laptop computer. Obviously, i dont want to spend more than i have to, buy my posture and spinal regularity are important to me, so i will try not to be cheap and by the chair on sale! I guess 150 USD would be about what i want to spend, give or take.
A doctor friend of mine, spends hours a day on his computer, and he works on one of those kneeling chairs, the queer looking chairs without the back rests, and i can see how this would force you to keep your correct posture, but ive also heard that they are put a fair bit of pressure on your knees.
I will reiterate, essentially i am looking for the most ergonomic chair available! (within a certain price bracket). Is there a certain TYPE of chair i should be looking at? Or a certain BRAND or shop? Any advice, suggestions and tips on this 'posture chair' topic would be appreciated! Thanks guys!
