The most harmful sitting posture for health is with a rounded back, which standard chairs encourage. This position causes tension in the neck and shoulders and slows the vital fluid circulation in the lower back tissues.
In the groin area, femoral channels are significantly compressed, as are pudendal channels in the buttocks, genitals, and pelvic floor. Knee and hip joints are positioned at sharp angles and subjected to pressure.
Sitting on a well-designed rocking saddle chair with a center gap while wearing loose clothing around the pelvis eliminates nearly all sitting-related health issues. The angles of the lower limbs are harmlessly open, fluid circulation in the pelvic floor is sufficient for tissue health, and good posture promotes proper circulation in the back and shoulder areas, as well as deeper breathing.
It is baffling why public health leaders do not promote this healthiest form of sitting, despite extensive research and the common sense evident to anyone observing its superiority, not to mention the experiences of hundreds of thousands of users.
