Facts About the Bambach Saddle Seat

The Bambach Saddle Seat has sold 30,000 units worldwide in the past 20 years. It is designed to promote optimal seated posture in the human spine. A person sitting on a Saddle Seat automatically assumes the position that produces least stress for muscles, ligaments and joints, thus relieving stress on the lumbar discs and spine because the pelvis is properly positioned and stabilised.

The pelvis is central and critical to correct spinal position because of the way it is attached to the spine by muscles and ligaments. Its position actually controls the curvature of the spine, and this, in turn, is pivotal to how much stress is induced on the spine when someone is seated.

In 1998 The Bambach Saddle Seat won two major awards in the U.S.A., the first being The Adex award for Ergonomic Task Seating, and the second a Silver Award at NeoCon for Design Excellence for Desk/Workstation Task Chairs.

The Bambach Saddle Seat is comfortable, and it provides a wide range of adjustments to help the individual find the most natural, comfortable sitting position. With the Saddle Seat, feet are able to have floor contact, the weight of the legs can be taken through the feet and the feet used to mobilise the whole body, allowing easy movement around a workstation. The Saddle Seat permits the pelvis to be held securely in its natural position so that, when leaning forward to work, the lean is from the hips and not the waist.

The benefits of the Saddle Seat have been validated around the world, even hailed (by some professionals at the University of Vermont) as the most revolutionary change in seating seen in a century.
