Why do I need lumbar support?

Use the Lumbar Support to Sit Tall

An ergonomic desk chair should have a low back support that creates a slight arch in the low back. This is essential in an office chair, since lack of lumbar support can stress the lumbar discs. If your chair does not have this, you can buy a back support or cushion from a supplier of ergonomic office furniture and modify the chair you have, or shop for a new ergonomic chair, or maybe even an office ball chair.
