Which Is The Best Office Chair For Back Pain?

Understand whats Important

Helping You To Choose...

Most people underestimate the value of movement in an office chair when looking to tackle back pain. Gentle movement in your chair helps to reduce pain, maintain healthy bones, joints, energy levels, aid concentration, boost your immune system and maintain endorphin levels.

This guide is full of office chairs that help you achieve easy micro movement while you work. Some chairs will move very gently and some move more. A little movement in a chair (forwards and backwards) can help to alleviate your lower or upper back pain quickly.

This beautiful chair is amazingly good for zoom calls, for intensive keyboard work, and for long telephone calls. The integrated backrest on this Variable Plus (And the 'Thatsit' Chair) have made this the 1st Choice of thousands, especially our clients with demanding jobs who want to feel great before, during and after work. 

Why is the Variable Plus chair so good? 

The Variable Plus is based on the iconic Variable, one of the greatest chairs ever designed. The Variable Plus encompasses Backinaction's three core essentials of healthy sitting: Movement, Balance, and Forward Tilt. And yet, moment by moment, without any knobs to adjust, the integrated backrest of the Plus allows users to have an "ahhhh" moment. In short the Plus feels joyful, an amazing sitting experience.

Varier Actulum - Best Chair ever? - In Stock

Actulum - IN STOCK

An office chair doesn't have to look like an office chair. This is possibly the best chair we've ever sat in, and the one many BIA staff use around our dining tables and in front of our computers. 

The Actulum is an elegant Home Office or Table Chair that can reduce sitting fatigue, improve posture, increase activity levels and reduce neck and back pain.
It is also well suited to study and hobbies. The rocking movement is exceptional at maintaining alertness and develops core muscles while you sit. Actulums make great dining chairs (particularly with our dining tables), allowing long enjoyable dinner parties and conversation well into the night.  Design: Peter Opsvik.

We believe that Thatsit is the ultimate kneeling chair. It allows the most movement and offers the greatest support. The chair has adjustable leg supports and can be adapted perfectly to the user, regardless of height.

It has an optional back support for those using a chair for long periods of time. Thatsit is ideal for people who have to sit for long periods of time either at home or work. Perfect for all kinds of work at a table. One of our staff has used this chair for over ten years and wouldn't give it up!

HAG Creed - Centre Pivot and Free Movement - In Stock!

HAG Creed

This allows users to control the chairs forward and backward tilt by the movements of their upper body. Controlling the chair is intuitive and fluid. The chair has a "Mercedes" like feel and a very long warranty... Superb in our view!

Designed by legendary ergonomic designer Peter Opsvik it is the ONLY chair we know of that doesn't just offer all the ergonomics you would expect - but also allows left to right rotation of the shoulders. This is something we haven't found in any other chair (only a feature on model HAG Creed 6005 - High back partially upholstered).
