The SALLI Story In the beginning The Salli Saddle Chair began with my favourite hobby: horse riding. I have been riding since 1974 and usually manage and supervise the maintenance of my forests on horseback. My hobby has taken me to several competitions, including show jumping and trekking events. Even though my way of life was active and healthy, I suffered from back pains when I had to sit in the office. In 1990, I told my physiatrist, Mr. Seppo Mahlamäki, a specialist in rehabilitation, about how much more uncomfortable it was for me to sit in an office chair than in the saddle. Mr....

The natural position of the body without stimulation from outside. The joints are in a state of rest – this is the same position you achieve on a Salli Saddle Chair.

Why SALLI CONCEPT works Conventional seats have a negative impact on health and productivity. Our bodies are not designed for sitting, but we usually sit 12–15 hours each day, without really being aware of it. It is essential for our bodies to get enough oxygen and nutrients, and to remove waste; both functions made possible by active circulation. Sitting in a bad position affects the whole body: The slouched position makes neck and shoulder muscles tense and sore. The disks in the lower back are unevenly pressed by the vertebrae, which slowly deteriorates them. Breathing is shallow and the...

ADAPTING MAY TAKE TIME! When you start sitting in a new way you may feel some discomfort, the same as when you start a new sport. Muscles in the lower back may become sore, because you start to use them. The inner thighs can feel tight because muscles are not used to being stretched. The sitting bone area may also feel tender, if you are not used to having pressure on sitting bones.

Why SALLI CONCEPT works Sitting pressure in pelvic tissues The pressure caused by sitting on conventional chairs disturbs the pelvis, tailbone, pelvic floor and genital area. It is believed to increase intestinal and internal pelvic health problems and erectile dysfunctions. and it is too painful to slouch, the result is a numbed genital area due to the pressure imposed on it. When sitting on a two-part saddle chair, the pressure is on the sitting bones. As a result there is less pressure on soft tissues and that is On a conventional chair men tend why we can sit more comfortably, in to...

New level of work ergonomics In dental care the sitting position is the greatest health risk, because during long operations the position is unnatural and involves a lot of repetitive movements. Sitting in a bad position puts twice as much strain on the spine as standing. On a two-part saddle chair the back is in the same position as when standing, and the lower back lordosis can be maintained. The gap in the seat enables you to keep your back straight even when you need to lean forward. Moving and reaching for things is easy and fast on Salli. Small and practical Salli enables both the...

BEAUTY & THERAPY No more back pains Salli helps you to take care of yourself Ergonomic and healthy sitting position is best achieved on an anatomically designed, twopart saddle chair. Sitting on Salli automatically creates lordosis in the lower back, which relieves the harmful pressure on the disks. The gap in the seat makes it possible to maintain the good posture even during long operations, because there is no uncomfortable pressure in the genital area – and thus no need to round the back. The work of beauticians and body therapists is especially challenging ergonomics-wise because they...

Safe sitting for both genders Healthy choices from the very beginning Sitting in a poor posture disturbs circulation and prevents the brain from getting enough oxygen.

It is easy to roll the chair to the child’s side and look downwards while maintaining the good, comfortable posture. You sit higher on a saddle...
