STEIFENSAND GERNOT – Introducing the LADY SITWELL COLLECTION

Women differ from men in size, height, and weight; the ‘Lady Sitwell’ is available in different sizes, so a woman six feet tall can sit as comfortably as one five feet tall.

MEN AND WOMEN SIT DIFFERENTLY

We are a sedentary society; in the workplace, we spend most of our day seated.

Most office workers, men and women, use the same ordinary chairs that do not take into account the anatomical differences between men and women, nor compensate for the constant stress to the body from being seated much of the workday.

It is no wonder that more than 75% of all workers suffer from backache. Back problems are the number one cause of lost work hours due to illness.

Our new Lady Chair features a revolutionary 3-D swivel base which rocks from side to side, front to back, or any way she wants to sway

Our bodies are the houses in which we live, and health is the most important thing we have in life.

The SITWELL seat research group and an international team of doctors have been on a quest to understand the causes of the nation’s number one disease: back pain and other office illnesses.

The purchase of seating is a matter of trust. „Seating illnesses“ creep up on us, and we only become aware of it when we feel pain.

Every person sits differently. Women are especially disadvantaged on DIN and uniform chairs due to their breathing and biological needs „Sitting makes you ill“, and those who sit should be able to sit especially well in order to protect their health and prevent back and shoulder pain.

SITWELL creates custom seating solutions for you and works like medicine for the body, mind and soul as well as improves your emotional and physical health at the workplace. Sitting at your desk in a healthy manner can reduce not only sick days for the company, but also maintains the
performance and vitality of the employees.

The new SITWELL seating solutions for professionals offer you „seating freedom“ of the highest German quality at a sensational price.

The office chair for women – Why do men and women use the same office chairs?  Don’t size, weight, and anatomical differences matter, particularly considering that during an average work life, we spend more than 80,000 hours in an office, most of it sitting? 

Gernot Steifensand, son of F. Martin Steifensand, inventor of the first ergonomically designed chair in the post-war world, has considered these questions for years. 

To answer these questions, Gernot Steifensand worked closely with physicians and chiropractors to understand the anatomy of women and men and how if at all sitting compromises these anatomies.  Independent medical studies proved definitively that men and women possess different sitting needs and that many problems associated with sitting — migraines, varicose veins, cellulite, fatigue, back and shoulder pain, and lethargy among others — can be relieved and/or eradicated by modifying chair design. 

To that end, in 2002, with years of research behind him, Gernot Steifensand rocked the European office world with introduction of a patented swivel chair designed to meet the specific anatomical needs of women: LadySitwell the patented office health chair  which accommodate the female anatomy.

The LadySitwell differs from ordinary unisex office swivel chairs in many effective details with proven therapeutic benefits.  The seat is level and slightly shortened. 

The seat upholstery is sprung in the center and particularly soft in the front where the thighs rest.  Both features help prevent cellulite.  In addition, the chair back is flexible with adjustable height and lordosis support particularly in the region of the second and third lumbar vertebrae, and is narrow at shoulder height and wider at the hips, to accommodate the reverse triangle shape of the woman’s body. 

The chair back fully supports the spinal column and intervertebral discs, preventing damage to the joints.  Last, but not least, these office chairs are furnished with a system for dynamic sitting that constantly keeps the muscles and the spinal column in slight micro-motion and that stimulates both metabolism and digestion, increases blood circulation and strengthens connective tissues.  But, that’s not all.  Women differ in size, height and weight.

Those who are a bit taller or a bit shorter know what this means. That is why the LadySitwell is also available in different sizes: S, M, L and XL, assuring that a woman 6 foot tall can take her seat as comfortably as one 5 foot 2 inches.   The good news is, the amazingly comfortable LadySitwell is now available in the United States.
