Which Office Chair Should You Choose When You Have Back Pain?

Whether it's due to a herniated disc, nerve pain, back surgery, or chronic lower back issues, back pain at work is a serious concern that calls for the right ergonomic setup to prevent further complications.

Here’s our selection of ergonomic chairs for back pain, designed by our ergonomics specialists and fully manufactured in-house France.

Top Pick #1: Efficient Chair for Back Pain

Our first recommendation is the Efficient Chair for Back Pain, an ergonomic chair specifically engineered to alleviate back discomfort:

• Coccyx Relief Seat: The seat features a cut-out at the rear, designed to relieve pressure on the coccyx and sacrum while sitting.

• Spinal Relief Backrest: A spinal groove in the backrest foam helps reduce pressure on the vertebrae, providing targeted support.

This configuration is ideal for people dealing with herniated discs, spinal compression, or other spine-related issues, making it one of the best office chairs for lower back pain.

Top Pick #2: Efficient Chair with Lumbar Support

The <strong">Efficient Chair Support is perfect if you need enhanced lumbar support throughout your workday.

• Adaptive Lumbar System: A high-viscosity fluid insert adapts to your movements and body weight, molding itself to your lower back.

• Adjustable Lumbar Inflation: An integrated air pump allows you to customize the size and firmness of the support, even for deep lumbar arches.

Like the Relief model, this chair also includes a coccyx relief seat to prevent pressure build-up along the spine.

Top Pick #3: Efficient Chair for Pressure Distribution

If you suffer from more severe back conditions or have a sensitive back, the Efficient Chair Pressure Diffuser provides maximum comfort through its innovative pressure-distributing backrest.

• Full-Back Fluid Inserts: High-viscosity fluid pockets positioned on both sides of a spinal relief cut-out distribute pressure evenly across your back.

• Coccyx Relief Seat: As with the other models, the cut-out seat reduces pressure that could trigger or worsen spinal pain.

This combination makes it an ideal choice for users with chronic pain, post-operative needs, or extreme spinal sensitivity.
