Salli is perfect in the office
With regular ergonomic chairs you don't sit with a neutral pain relieving posture. With Salli you do - and you don't need a backrest! (just like when standing ;)
The Salli Pro is the latest evolution of the hugely popular Swayfit and Triplefit models. Perfect for dental, medical, office, home office - anywhere you sit! With a redesigned sway mechanism and width adjustment this raises the bar yet again in truly ergonomic seating design.
Which mechanism is best for me?
The sway active sitting mechanism enables the seat to be tilted into every direction without a separate adjustment lever. Thus you can exercise while sitting, which adds to the mobility and metabolism of the lower back, and activates the whole body.
The tilt mechanism allows you to adjust the working position to your optimum. By tilting the seat forward, it is possible to reach forward without having to round the back. This mechanism is preferred by many dentists as it provides a more stable
platform.

It has been scientifically proven that sitting with an open hip angle of 125-135 degrees greatly reduces musculoskeletal stresses and helps you achieve and maintain a neutral sitting posture with balanced sitting position.
Why is this important?
Well, it is these stresses which cause much of the pain you will get from sitting in a regular office or task chair. You (or someone you know) will have some minor or acute back pain from sitting - even when they have followed all the standard ergonomic sitting and desk setup diagrams which you have all seen many times.
These diagrams are common, outdated practices but not BEST practice. If they worked in reality then nobody would have sitting related disorders.
Remember, pain management in the form of drugs and physical therapy is big business! Prevention is better (and usually cheaper) than the cure.
Salli saddle saddle chairs also have additional health benefits courtesy of the patented, pressure reducing split design.

It has been both scientifically proven and experimentally shown that conventional sitting leads to health problems. In this text Sanna Hakala, M.Sc., Physiotherapist, explains why conventional sitting is dangerous.
Salli Saddle chairs provide a great solution to work in a good posture, as well as reducing tissue (and genital) pressure while sitting due to its split design.
Genital pressure from some saddle chairs can cause you to modify the way you sit, compromising your posture and reducing their effectiveness.
How much does the dental team spend on therapy and medication and still the literature is full of articles confirming up to 80% of dentists have problems in their bodies from work?
