November 30, 2007, Newsletter Issue #83: Use other active sitting devices if an exercise ball is not the right “chair” for you.
Tip of the Week
If circumstances do not permit the use of an exercise ball (for example, if your desk is too low or high to accommodate a ball that is the correct size for you), there are other options which allow for an active sitting surface. Some alternatives to using a ball chair are the Swopper and the Active Disc. Both of these products allow mobility and promote good posture. The Swopper is a stool-like piece of equipment that provides all of the same benefits of the ball due to its tilting and rocking motions. The Fitterfirst Active Disc is a cushion that you can put on a standard desk chair, allowing for movement through your hips so that your body to find its optimal posture in conjunction with gravity.
