Height Adjustable
Adjustable Height Office Stool
Many people suffer from muscle stress causing them to stiffen and become sore. Surprisingly these people work at desks throughout the day, and therefore consider themselves to be shielded from musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs). What they fail to realize is that prolonged work in the same position, whether seated or standing, can cause discomfort. An ergonomically outfitted workstation, coupled with proper seating posture, is essential to maximize efficiency and productivity. And at the same time it reduces the potential for injuries caused by repetitive motions.
A well designed office stool is one of the most critical elements of a healthy workstation. Assisting the user to maintain an appropriate sitting posture is the purpose of an ergonomically designed stool. An optimum seating posture can favorably affect blood circulation, the amount of pressure exerted on the lumbar region and the effort required to maintain an optimum sitting posture.
Some stools are designed to fit certain table heights. While this may be apt for certain applications, it renders itself useless for most office use. Since office work surfaces vary in height, fixed height stools may cause strain to muscles, tendons and other soft tissues. Adjustable stools are a better option they offer versatility. Adjustable height stools adapt to the users and provide easy adjustment from a seated position. They also boast productivity by decreasing discomfort and fatigue.
Height adjustable stools impart stability to the trunk of your body, as it allows you to firmly place your feet on the ground. A stable and erect seating posture facilitates proper alignment of shoulders and neck. Height adjustable stools also minimize ‘arching of back’ while reaching forward. This helps in reducing unequal stress on the cervical spine, a major cause of MSDs.
If you are shopping for adjustable height stool, it is imperative that the stool also incorporates the following features:
1. Adjustable foot ring.
2. Reinforced five leg nylon bases.
3. Cushioned seating surface.
4. Antimicrobial/antibacterial vinyl finish.
A stool that incorporates all the above mentioned features along with an easy to use height adjustment mechanism is an ideal office seating solution. It would not only increase productivity, but also reduces musculoskeletal injuries.
