Product Description
The innovative BalanceBall Chair lets you reap the benefits of the popular BalanceBall right at your workspace. This patented design lets you do tension-relieving techniques while seated in the chair - or simply remove the ball to stretch and strengthen key muscles without a trip to the gym. Relieves stress on the spine, helps prevent back discomfort and repetitive motion disorders, helps prevent health issues related to poor posture, illustrates non-impact strengthening exercises and stretching and keeps you active, even on busy work days. When you sit in the BalanceBall Chair, the ball acts as a shock absorber and eases your body into an ergonomic position. When your muscles become stiff or whenever you want a break, the exercises in this guide will help you relax, build strength and foster a wide range of health benefits. Exercises performed with the BalanceBall in the chair offer maximum support, stability and convenience. Exercises performed on the ball alone allow greater range of movement. The BalanceBall Chair was developed with Dr. Randy Weinzoff a pioneer in chiropractic care. Trained at the acclaimed Palmer West University in California, Dr. Weinzoff runs his successful practice in Santa Monica, CA based on his philosophy of "Vitality through total alignment of the whole being." Some assembly required.

Less back problems January 6, 2009
Chris E. Salonia

 My Back Feels Great December 23, 2008
S. Jacobsen (Baltic, OH)
I had back surgery several years ago and since then, I've not been able to sit at my computer for more than a few hours without feeling nerve pain. But this product allows me to work for hours without stress. I think the fact that I'm exercising a bit by balancing on the chair as I work is the key. I haven't tried the exercises that are suggested yet, but I'm sure that my back will be in much better shape due to using this chair.
Great everyday chair! December 22, 2008
D. Rice
I really love my chair! When it first came, I was very nervous because of the size of the ball. I sat so low I never thought I would be able to keep the chair. However, I read the instructions and it did state that the ball would stretch over the next couple of days and to keep inserting air to fill the chair completely. Now that it is a normal size, I never have a need to go back to a "normal" office chair! I love it!!
Ball Chair December 17, 2008
Amerikus (USA)
Have had the product several years and use as a PC chair. No complaints and price was best on the net, Amazon service was excellent.
Aaaah!! December 17, 2008
Ink Gal (Visalia, CA)
I've been using my chair at work for a month but from day one I really could tell the difference between the pain (due to bulging disc)I normally had going down my leg from sitting in a worn out chair, as opposed to sitting on my "Ball Chair". It's comfortable, you don't feel unsteady and it sure get's a lot of attention ...I love it!
