When we are young, we do not think about how our body will function in middle age and old age. For a teenager, or even a twenty-something, these are such distant times that most people do not bother with these issues. However, what we do when we are young can have a twofold effect decades later, so it is worthwhile to take care in advance to ensure that our bodies are in good shape, that we eat properly and that our musculoskeletal system, including the spinal column, which is the backbone of our bodies, is in optimum comfort.
Work and rest
Most adults spend a large part of their day at work, whether physical or mental, so they are constantly on the move. It is not unusual for the spine and joints to be overloaded during intensive work, so when we get home, we are happy to sit down in a comfortable armchair or sofa, thereby resting our tired bones and muscles. However, not every armchair or sofa that looks comfortable is, because mass production is not geared to the individual characteristics of the buyer; their design does not assume possible rehabilitation properties, so rest, although it is, does not improve the condition of the body to the extent that is recommended. In short, it is ineffective.
Musculoskeletal complaints
The skeletal system, mainly the spinal column that holds the body in position, becomes overloaded and weakened over time. More susceptible people develop various ailments such as disc prolapse, sciatica or scoliosis acquired as a result of bad posture habits, and require intensive rehabilitation in specialised facilities. In most cases, these are necessary treatments to restore former fitness or stop the progression of the disease. To assist in such rehabilitation, it is worth acquiring a suitable device that will both serve as a comfortable seat and support daily therapeutic exercises. This device is the multifunctional beanbag.
Rehabilitation beanbag armchair
Traditional rehabilitation armchairs are designed to exercise many parts of the body, including the spine, while the beanbag chair is intended mainly to facilitate natural feeding by mothers of newborns and for people with spinal disorders.
The beanbag is an ideal seat - it is very light, so it can be easily moved from place to place, it is usually upholstered with tasteful fabric or ecological leather - thanks to which it can be matched to the styling of the room, it has a filling of polystyrene granulate, which perfectly adapts to the body. The sako chair comes in versions for adults and as a sako pouffe chair for children. The filling is contained in an additional cover, so the outer padding can be removed from each sako bag and thoroughly cleaned.
Beanbags as rehabilitation armchairs
Depending on the position in which it is placed and its size, the beanbag can also function as a lounger with back support - it adjusts perfectly to the body, fully relieves pressure on the spine, provides ideal support for tense back muscles, causing them to relax, insulates from the cold floor through its filling and is great for relaxing the mind and body.
The outer upholstery of the beanbag armchairs can be made of decorative fabrics, so when placed in accordance with the style of the room, they will also have a decorative function.
