How the Saddle Seat works

diagram of good and bad seated posturesOne of the best ways to help prevent back problems is to retain your spine's natural, stress-free 'S' shape. The shape of The Bambach Saddle Seat ensures your spine naturally keeps this 'S' shape as you sit, stretch or lean forward.

Exactly how does it work?

The position of your pelvis controls the curvature of your spine, because of the muscles and ligaments joining the two. Your spine's curvature is crucial in influencing how much stress it suffers when you are seated. When you sit on The Bambach Saddle Seat, your pelvis is properly positioned and stabilised, so you naturally and automatically assume the least stressful position for your muscles, ligaments and joints - and your spine maintains its stress-free shape too.

Is it comfortable?

The Bambach Saddle Seat is extremely comfortable, with a wide range of adjustments to help you find the most natural, comfortable sitting position.

Your feet are on the floor, so they take the weight of your legs and can be used to manoeuvre the seat, for easy movement around a workstation. And when you lean or bend to work, it's comfortable from the hips, not awkward and painful from the waist.

Who can benefit?

bambach saddle seatAnyone whose job or hobby involves long periods of sitting can benefit from the Bambach Saddle Seat. Office workers, home computing or gaming enthusiasts - who spend long periods sitting at a desk or in front of a computer - will find The Bambach Saddle Seat the ideal way to eliminate or prevent the headaches, tiredness, stress and back pain which can often result.

The Bambach Saddle Seat is already in widespread use by dentists, who as a profession suffer extensively from back pain. Its design enables them to sit comfortably yet at the same time maintain the manoeuvrability essential to their work.

But perhaps the best endorsement for The Bambach Saddle Seat is the fact that many medical professionals who sit down to work but need to move around their patients or equipment - such as physiotherapists and radiologists - find the Bambach Saddle Seat invaluable.

The seat is ergonomically constructed so that your pelvis is both correctly balanced and stable. It allows your spine to function in its optimal, balanced axis with the natural curve and the muscles under minimal stress and to maintain this position effortlessly.

Through easy height adjustment, the Bambach Saddle Seat permits stable positioning of your feet on the floor, and guarantees free and controlled movement, thus allowing finely tuned balance between your shoulders, neck and head and permitting undisturbed position reflexes, optimal visual overview and enhanced use of your hands.

The ‘open’ position of your hips when seated on the Bambach Saddle Seat fosters good blood circulation, and it is extremely comfortable, providing a wide range of adjustment to help you find your ‘natural’ sitting position.

The Saddle Seat prevents functional problems and potential damage which could be caused by work positions that restrict movement. It can also help if you suffer from headaches or pain in your arms or hands.

Extras and options

saddle seat with cutaway seatThe Saddle Seat comes with two basic seat styles, standard or cutaway (shown left). The cutaway seat is particularly designed for people with narrow hips (limited hip abduction). The Saddle Seat should be a suitable size for all adults and school age children.

Apart from an excellent range of colours in durable leather, vinyl or wool fabric, Bambach provides Saddle Seats with different castors to suit various surfaces and conditions, and different height ranges to suit users from very tall to small, including children.

There are also various options that enable you to tailor the Saddle Seat to your own needs:

Back Rest - The back rest on the seat is optional and is used purely as a 'rest'. The back rest adjusts for height and angle.

Foot Height Adjuster - Allows adjustment of the seat height whilst leaving your hands free. Ideal for use where hands need to be kept sterile.

Sheepskin Cover - A natural wool sheepskin cover that fits over the standard seat to give a warmer feel.

Footring - The footring enables you to sit or work at a greater than normal height, and still retain the pelvis in the upright neutral position.
