FOR SALE: Stokke Balans® Multi Model Kneeling Chair Made in Norway.


This is the original high quality ergonomic kneeling chair-it is built like a tank... this kneeling chair beats the competition by quality. No kneeling chair is better made. This one will last you a
lifetime.
Kneeling chair gives the body a natural and more functional posture compared to conventional seating. The forward slanting seat and supportive leg cushion opens the hip angle which leads to a natural
posture of the spinal column resulting in reduced strain on the back, neck and shoulders. This is especially important for computer work.
Introduce in Scandanavia in the 1970's and sought after ever since kneeling chairs have often been called "Posture" chairs. This is due to their unique design, which encourages good posture. If you
were looking at this type of chair for the first time you might say, "where is the back?" With a kneeling chair you are in a kneeling position, which alleviates the need for a back. Primary support
comes from the seat; additional support is sustained through your shins and the result is an ergonomically positive position that can be sustained throughout your busy workday.
As a child your parents and your teachers always encouraged you to sit up straight. If you had a kneeling chair this would have been much easier to achieve, and with less effort.

Kneeling chairs offer a welcome relief to the lower back, keeping the spine in its natural "S" shape position and avoiding the "C" curved spine from chair-slumping.
Multi position adjustable- comfortable sitting at varying table heights.
This Balans chair also folds flat for storage and can even be hung on the wall.
