An ergonomic office chair should recline comfortably and have contours that follow the natural curves of your back. This will help reduce pressure on your sitting bones and muscles, as well as your spine. Office chairs with natural glide mechanisms allow you to recline your seat comfortably, without affecting the way you see your work. Ergonomic furniture is intelligently designed to prevent strain on any part of the body while sitting.
Adjustable chair height is another important feature to look for in an ergonomic office chair.Choose a chair design that will allow you to sit with your feet flat on the floor or on a footrest. The correct sitting position is with your thighs parallel to the ground and your forearms parallel to your work surface. Too high, and you put a strain on the back of your knee and limit your circulation and too low, your body weight shifts to the back, which puts pressure on your sitting bones.
