Ergonomic Office Chairs for Healthy Sitting
Pos Chair was founded on the principle that seating should support natural posture and spinal health. Our innovative Pos Chair 1 design, inspired by the Alexander Technique, offers a revolutionary approach to ergonomic sitting. With over 30 years of expertise in ergonomic seating solutions, we specialise in creating products that engage the body's natural balance mechanisms to promote healthy spinal alignment. Our patented rocker technology allows for dynamic movement while maintaining stability, addressing the mechanical causes of back pain identified through engineering analysis. We pioneered the Wave Stool before developing our current model with enhanced adjustability.Our commitment to quality is demonstrated through partnerships with UK-based fabric suppliers using recycled materials. We maintain rigorous standards in both product development and customer service, offering a unique trial-before-buying process to ensure perfect fit. Our team combines engineering expertise with practical experience in posture correction, having helped thousands find healthier sitting solutions. We operate from our Keswick facility where visitors can experience our products firsthand by appointment.

Services
Pos Chair 1
Our flagship ergonomic chair uses patented rocking technology to promote natural spinal alignment. The forward-sloping seat and balanced design engage your body's natural posture mechanisms. This dynamic seating solution helps prevent back pain by encouraging micro-movements that keep muscles active and circulation flowing during prolonged sitting.
Trial Service
Experience Pos Chair 1 firsthand through our unique trial program. We facilitate stool exchanges between users to test the chair in your actual workspace. The process includes both rocker options and allows proper acclimatisation. This ensures perfect fit before purchase with free delivery on subsequent orders.
Posture Correction
Our seating solutions address mechanical causes of back pain identified through engineering analysis. The design prevents pelvis slumping that strains ligaments and compresses discs. By maintaining natural lumbar curvature, our chairs help alleviate chronic backache and reduce risk of disc injuries through improved sitting mechanics.
Office Seating
Designed for modern workspaces, our chairs support active sitting at desks and tables. The 360-degree rocking motion accommodates various tasks while maintaining stability. Height-adjustable gas lift fits users from 4'8" to 6'8". Ideal for computer work, the design prevents common posture issues associated with traditional office chairs.
Sustainable Design
Our commitment to sustainability includes UK-made fabric from 100% recycled polyester. The durable crepe weave meets high environmental standards while maintaining aesthetic appeal. The design minimises material use through efficient construction. This eco-conscious approach extends to our trial system that reduces returns and associated carbon footprint.
People
Andrew Webb
Designer
With 30 years' experience in ergonomic seating, Andrew developed Pos Chair 1 following Alexander Technique principles. He has personally benefited from improved posture since 1988 through these methods. His engineering background informs the chair's mechanical design that addresses spinal health issues.
John Gorman
Advisor
Chiropractor and engineer John Gorman's research forms the foundation of Pos Chair's design philosophy. His mechanical analysis of spinal pressure explains how traditional chairs cause back pain. His work demonstrates how proper seating alignment prevents disc compression and ligament strain through correct posture mechanics.
Questions
How does pos Chair 1 help with back pain?
The chair's forward slope and rocking base maintain natural lumbar curvature. This prevents pelvis slumping that strains ligaments and compresses discs, addressing mechanical causes of back pain identified through engineering analysis.
Can I try pos Chair before buying?
Yes, our unique trial system lets you test the chair in your workspace. We arrange stool exchanges between users, including both rocker options. This ensures proper acclimatisation before purchase with free delivery on subsequent orders.
What makes pos Chair different from kneeling chairs?
Unlike kneeling chairs that fix leg position, our design allows natural movement. The gentle rocking engages balance reflexes without knee pressure. This promotes circulation while maintaining spinal alignment through dynamic rather than restrictive posture correction.
How do I adjust the chair height?
The gas lift adjusts from 4'8" to 6'8". Simply lift the seat to raise, or press the lever to lower. For extreme heights, alternative gas lifts are available. Proper adjustment ensures thighs slope downward to maintain natural spinal alignment.
What fabric options are available?
We use Camira's Xtreme range - 100% recycled polyester crepe weave. Available in six colours, this UK-made fabric combines durability with sustainability. It meets high environmental and health standards through its production process in Yorkshire.
How does the trial process work?
Request a trial via email. We add you to our waiting list and connect you with a current user. They'll send their stool with both rockers. After a week, arrange return shipping. If you purchase, we deduct carriage costs and provide free delivery.
