Are you sitting comfortably?
Then you are probably one of the lucky minority whose seat needs
no improvement! If not, then perhaps you can do something about
it with the Pelvic Tilt 11° Sitting
Wedge!
The secret of Healthy Sitting lies in having your spine in its
natural and balanced S Shape.
The wedge shape of the Pelvic Tilt actively promotes this by raising
your hips a little higher than your knees and so giving your pelvis
a slight forward tilt, giving you an Open Pelvic Angle
and promoting the natural S Shape
curvature of your spine. Weight should then be evenly distributed
over your discs and the supporting muscles and ligaments should
be more comfortably balanced.
The Pelvic Tilt is available as a Firm Wedge
(with a non-slip cover) or a softer, Medium Firmness Wedge.
They can have immediate benefit for Office Workers and VDU Operators
as they encourage an active, ergonomically efficient and balanced
posture. For this use we suggest that the firmer wedge is likely
to be the more effective.The open Pelvic Angle can give comfort
to those with arthritic hips and the medium version has given relief
after hip replacement operations.
Musicians, especially Cello players, have found them invaluable
during long concerts.
They are suitable for most types of seating and, apart from the
uses mentioned, the choice of firm or medium is a personal preference.
The Medium Pelvic Tilt can also be used in some car seats provided
there remains sufficient clearance between the top of your head
and the roof (ideally the thickness of your hand) and provided it
does not create a forward-sloping sitting position. You should NOT
use the firm wedge in cars. Pelvic Tilt Wedges are not generally
compatible with bucket seats or other seats with a highly moulded
shape.
They are made from high quality fire-retardant foam with a long
lasting and attractive cover. They are lightweight, unobtrusive
and are easily carried with their carrying handle.
