Active sitting: How the seat tilt function of the ofinto Active improves your sitting posture

Do you know this? After a long day at your desk, you feel tension in your back and neck. The static, bent-forward sitting posture that many people adopt for hours on end is often to blame. This can cause orthopaedic complaints in the long term.

The solution for more dynamic, healthier sitting is the seat-tilt function of the office chair ofinto Active. In this article, you will learn how the seat tilt function works and has been proven to improve your sitting posture.

• What is the seat-tilt function on the ofinto Active?
• How does the seat tilt function work?
• The advantages of the seat-tilt function
• How the seat tilt function improves your sitting posture
• Scientifically proven: Slight sitting tilt is good for your health
• Flexible sitting: Can be switched on and off at any time
• Conclusion: The most important advantages at a glance

The seat tilt function allows the seat of the chair to be tilted forwards by approx. 4°. This creates a slightly inclined sitting position, with the thighs slightly downwards and the upper body slightly upwards.

This mechanism can be used with the ofinto Active as an option. The function is activated or deactivated using a simple lever under the seat.

The seat-tilt function of the ofinto Active is based on a clever mechanism that allows the seat to be tilted forwards continuously by approx. 4°.

Compared to conventional office chairs, this results in a much more natural pelvic position. The upper body straightens up while the thighs point slightly downwards - just like in a dynamic, upright sitting posture.

The tilt is infinitely adjustable and can be switched on or off at any time using a lever.

The advantages of a seat-tilt function are many and varied:

• Promotes active, dynamic sitting: The inclined seat surface encourages you to change your sitting position and change posture more often.
• More natural pelvic position: the thighs point slightly downwards, the pelvic bone does not tilt backwards. This ensures that the spine is ideally stretched.
• Better blood circulation: The leg arteries are not kinked, blood circulation is measurably improved.
• Relieves pressure on the spine: the intervertebral discs are relieved of pressure and can regenerate. Stress pain is reduced.
• Encourages a change of position: The tilt encourages you to change your posture more often and thus prevent one-sided strain.

The graphic illustration shows how the seat-tilt function of the ofinto Active can significantly improve sitting posture.

The slightly forward-sloping seat ensures that the pelvis and upper body are naturally upright. This relieves pressure on the spine and prevents a hollow back.

At the same time, the tilt means that you automatically change your sitting position more often and thus prevent back problems.

Numerous scientific studies have shown that tilting the seat forward by 3-5° makes orthopaedic sense and improves your posture.

• According to a study published by the University of Copenhagen in the specialist journal "Ergonomics", a slight seat tilt reduces the strain on the spine and supports its natural curvature.
• Research from the University of Illinois shows that an inclined seat activates the thigh muscles - good for posture and balance.
• Ergonomics experts at New York University discovered that a seat tilt enables a relaxed, balanced position with a forward-leaning posture.

In short: a slightly inclined seat has been proven to make sitting more back-friendly and prevent tension.

A major advantage of the seat-tilt function in the ofinto Active is that it can be easily switched on and off using a lever under the seat.

This allows you to switch between the standard sitting position and the 4° forward-leaning position depending on the situation. You have the flexibility to adjust your sitting position to your current needs at any time.

• Active, dynamic sitting is encouraged
• More natural, orthopaedically sensible pelvic position
• Demonstrably improved posture
• Relief for the intervertebral discs and spine
• Flexible working thanks to stepless adjustability
• Test it risk-free for 30 days and return it if you don't like it
