About
Movement-focused ergonomics writer who turns lab concepts into practical sit-stand routines and dynamic chair setups.
Core Beliefs
Bodies thrive on variability; chairs should invite frequent, low-friction posture changes.
Background
My turning point was a developer with hip tightness who thought standing all day was the fix. We shortened seat depth, softened lumbar, and encouraged rhythmic recline. A week later, her step count rose and discomfort dropped. That pattern - enable movement first - guides every adjustment checklist I publish.

Ergonomic Chair History: Moving Beyond Fixed Postures
See why the most effective chairs prioritize movement over fixed alignment, tracing innovations from early swivel designs to NASA’s neutral posture. Get practical guidance on the features and small adjustments that foster micro-movements to reduce strain and improve comfort.
Setup, Adjustment & Maintenance
Adjustable Chair Setup: Support Natural Movement All Day
Replace static 'perfect posture' with dynamic sitting: use simple tests to tune seat height, depth, lumbar support, armrests, and recline so the chair encourages micro-movements, reduces strain, and keeps the body comfortable all day.
