Posture Support Chair

Handi Network International Co., Ltd. (Osaka)

Developed based on thorough scientific research, this chair features ergonomic design to help elderly people and those who suffer from back pain to sit comfortably for a long time.
The founder of the company, who was a wheelchair user, became paralyzed from the neck down due to progressive muscular dystrophy, which is an intractable genetic disease. As a person requiring long term care, he suffered from the pain of sitting all day. Based on his own experience, this chair was brough to life with the aim of help relieving the pain while also easing the burden of the family caregivers.
More than 25 years after its launch, the chair originally developed to solve his own problems, is now being widely recognized as a solution to problems with sitting of elderly people in Japan, which is one of world’s most rapidly aging societies. In Japan, filial piety, which means respecting, caring for and loving the parents, has been one of the most valued virtues since ancient times. This chair has been appreciated by many people in their 50s and 60s as an ideal gift to demonstrate filial piety to their parents.
The special backrest and seat designed to align the pelvis and spine correctly to maintain a good posture let you comfortably sit while helping relieve back pain. In addition, careful attention has been made to the details including the quality of the material and the design. The chair, which is both functional and stylish, are carefully handmade by artisans in a domestic factory and the pleasant texture is achieved through many hand-finishing processes.
