Quite simply, this is one of the best support devices for the problem of occupational sitting that I have seen in a long time.
Unlike usual ‘back rests’ and typical lumbar contour pillows and rolls, , the innovative SITTS sits UNDER the Spine –not behind it – for enabling true active support longitudinally through the spine.
Unlike wedge inclines and pre-designed seat contours, the SITTS is designed to optimize a comfortable platform of both support and predictability – but yet also permits freedom of dynamic movement as well. This is especially true of functional inter-relationships intricately involved within the human pelvis & hips in relation to ease of breathing and head-neck orientation – multiple areas that are typically overlooked in their contribution to low back and spine problems.
I highly recommend the SITTS support device to ergonomics consultants, individuals in need of comfort and ease while sitting, as well as a tool for therapists to optimize a platform base for transitional movement, dynamic balance, and transfer training – to reduce the deteriorating effects of our sit culture.
