The Back Stretching Chair

Obtain quick relief from everyday back discomfort without having to get up from your seat, simply by leaning back in this specially-designed chair. Long periods of sitting are known to cause the spine to gradually slouch, compressing the spinal disks even more than standing and resulting in backache. This chair lets you decompress your spine by simply leaning back over its massaging rollers¿a basic centuries-old stretch long recognized by doctors and physiotherapists for its muscle-relaxing abilities. The rollers help align your spine for correct posture, and the firm but comfortable pressure helps loosen and relax tense back muscles. The roller section can even be quickly and easily removed and placed on the floor for use as a lower back stretcher by itself. The back rollers can be positioned just where needed at the turn of a knob. The black leather upholstery on this chair is exclusive to Hammacher Schlemmer. 14" H x 25" W x 27" L. (35 1/2 lbs.)
