Lower Back Support


  • Use a chair that provides lumbar (lower back) support - if adjustable, adjust to maintain an erect sitting posture
  • Ideal chairs can be easily raised or lowered, and have 5 wheel legs for safety
  • Keep feet planted firmly on floor or footstool to counterbalance forces on lower back
