Backapp Sit Stand Chair

Backapp is a company out of Sweden, the brainchild of Dr. Freddy Johnsen. After having three back surgeries, he and the designer, Jostein Magerøy, created and patented the Backapp sit stand chair and the Back App 360 Board. This ergonomic standing stool is truly unique in its design and made from quality materials, as is usually the case with Scandinavian design. The way that the Back App 2.0 sit stand chair works is once seated with your feet on a footrest padded with a soft damping material, you rock slightly, always in motion as you are attempting to balance your body. This gentle movement, exercises the muscles that support the spine, building strength and in a way, massaging them and pumping essential lubrication to your body's joints and tissues. The Backapp 2.0 is meant to be used with a sit-stand desk, not a regular height desk. It can also be used as an assisted support chair when you'd like some kind of 'minimal' support while you work standing. 

The balance board concept is increasingly being used to increase holistic health in a myriad of ways - to expand neural networks that enable the left and right hemispheres of the brain to communicate with each other, thereby increasing its efficiency; to develop sensory integration and cognitive skills in children with developmental disorders; to teach singers optimal posture for the control of air-flow; and to shake off writer's block and other inhibitors of creativity. It's easy to see why the Backapp sit stand stool would be so beneficial. We were extremely impressed by the quality and comfort level when our designers tried it out. Backapp is assembled in Anderstorp in southern Sweden and almost all parts are produced within a 20km radius. This ergonomic standing stool ships FREE from our US based location!

Design Studio Comment: Rarely do we see a chair get as much attention when a rep drops one off for testing and evaluation! Everyone was literally all over it. Its been for sale in Europe for quite a few years. Over 70,000 satisfied owners according to the factory in Sweden. We are the first US based 'web-contract' dealer to offer the product here in the states and we are very excited. This chair can either be configured in a somewhat stationary version, its very light and be easily slid, or with the mobile base platform complete with soft casters that protect hard floor surfaces and work on carpets for those wishing to scoot about their space. Use it as a chair, stool or a standing support device for most any sit stand desk. Very versatile. Very healthy.
