What is
SPINAL STENOSIS
Spinal stenosis is the combination of disc degeneration and arthritis which results in the narrowing of the spinal canal. The loss of disc height, ligament laxity, and thickening of the bone or bone spurs from arthritis, decrease the space for the spinal cord and nerve roots causing pain.HOW CAN SITTING LEAD TO
SPINAL STENOSIS
Prolonged sitting in a slumped posture can cause disc degeneration which results in increased disc pressure and wear and tear on the outer layer of the disc. Over time the disc degeneration can worsen, causing spinal column narrowing or spinal stenosis.
This can result in:
- Spondylolisthesis
- Bone-on-bone pain
- Increased risk for spinal fractures
- Nerve impingement
- Pain and weakness
ANTHROS GUARANTEES TO IMPROVE YOUR PAIN
OR YOUR MONEY BACK
JOINT MISALIGNMENT
Sitting in a poor posture causes opposing muscle groups to be weaker/tighter or weaker/longer, creating an imbalance in the spine.
Anthros supports the spine in an upright balanced posture to reduce muscle imbalances, minimizing the risk of injury and spinal stenosis.
MUSCLE IMBALANCES
The independently adjustable two-part back system aligns the body in a neutral posture by allowing the user to customize their sit.
By supporting the pelvis, then balancing the upper back, the effortless upright position reduces the risk of spinal stenosis.
"Dynamically changing the positions of the lumbar vertebrae and pelvis during sitting has been found to help reduce posture-related pain."
- Journal Of Physical Therapy Science
MUSCLE FATIGUE
Muscle fatigue occurs when you are holding your body in an upright position for long periods of time in sitting.
Standard recline causes a slouched posture and muscle imbalances.
Anthros allows you to relax in tilt.
This feature maintains your posture and reduces the risk of fatigued back muscles which can result in spinal stenosis.
DISC PRESSURE
Traditional lumbar support does not prevent the pelvis from rotating backward which leads to slouched posture and increased disc pressure.
The adjustable low back pelvis support prevents backward rotation, decreasing the pressure on discs to 73 psi in upright sitting and down to 44 psi when tilting.
The Anthros pelvis support improves your posture while reducing your risk for spinal stenosis and injury.
