Natural Human Motion in an Elegant Design

Science says that natural human motion is the key to a healthy body. Unfortunately, that’s nearly impossible as most of us spend the bulk of our day sitting in front of a computer trying to get work done, but often getting stiff and sore in the process.

Other Solutions have the Right Idea, but Take the Wrong Approach

The right way to combat this problem is to get up and move, sit in different postures and keep yourself from sitting too long in one position. Many companies have designed solutions such as sit/stand desks, sitting on a ball, or back-less chairs. Unfortunately, this doesn’t help our main purpose which is to be able to concentrate so that we are productive at the task at hand. In fact, many of these solutions make us fatigued and less productive.

Other Ergonomic Chairs

There’s a good reason that the chair was designed, it’s a convenient way to sit when doing a task, such as working in front of a computer. Many companies have designed fancy ergonomic chairs with multiple levers, or other methods for trying to build a more comfortable way to sit. Unfortunately, these chairs are either so complicated to operate that no one does, or the movement they offer is not what your body needs. They are not truly counter-balanced, so most users end up fighting their chairs during the day. The chairs offer too many control, or a mechanism that’s difficult to move and keeps users from getting the support they need for multiple positions.

A simple test reveals these limitations. Sit in your chair and point your toes down to raise your heels off the ground; this shifts your center of gravity backwards. A truly ergonomic chair should instantly respond to this shift by adjusting the position of the seat and backrest. Conventional chairs, even those which tout their “ergonomics,” keep you from moving; It’s like sitting in a straight-jacket.

The NEW SwingChair is a Revolution

The SmartMotion chairs offer a simple solution to a complex problem. The SwingChair allows you to move naturally, keeping you focused, productive and pain free. SwingChair is the only chair in the World with an independently adjusting seat and backrest built around your center of gravity. The SmartMotion mechanism significantly reduces pressure across your legs, hips and back, beautifully tuning itself to your body, so that even the simple acts of breathing and stretching causes it to adjust with you. SwingChair instantly adapts to you and supports every natural movement you make throughout the day.

SwingChair has a seat and backrest which pivot from a point above the seat near your body’s center of gravity, center of lumbar flexion and center of pelvic rotation. The backrest uniquely pivots from two points in space; this double pivot action keeps the lumbar support in perfect alignment with your back whether you are sitting upright or fully reclined.
