   
Zero Gravity Recliner
If you've ever envied astronauts on the space shuttle who float in mid air with delightful abandon, here's
your chance to get a small sample of their experience. By using a zero gravity recliner, you can sample some of the
joys of weightlessness in the comfort of your own home.
They're highly affordable and a sleek zero gravity recliner bring a modern touch to your home or office and help
your body recover from the wear and tear of daily life.
Zero gravity chairs are examples of ergonomic furniture products and were in fact originally based on NASA
chairs designed to allow astronauts to sit comfortably in low
gravity environments. The position deemed best was similar to that adopted when using a recliner - reclined with
lower limbs elevated.
Offering total support for the body, and with the legs raised up to the level of the heart, these chairs are the
closest we've come to keeping gravity at bay here on planet Earth. They put your joints in balance and help your
body release tension. Gravity wreaks havoc on our bodies being responsible to everything from sagging faces to
aching backs. In a sense these chairs allow us to escape the worst effects of gravity for a while and hang
loose.
Zero gravity recliners are also popular for use in the workplace, both as ergonomic office chairs and as
loungers for workers to relax every so often. They come with the
standard features of recliners along with some specialities of their own. For example, as the chair's efficacy
depends on your own unique body, in order to be truly effective, these chairs have to be customized for your body
so they can have memory settings to remember your favorite positions.
While these chairs are good for preventing lower back pain and helpful for various health conditions, vendors
recommend that people recovering from back surgery should get medical advice before using a zero gravity chair.
You can get with frames crafted from wood or metal and with stylish leather upholstery, suede or rugged
microfiber. Parawood is popular choice of material along with regular hard woods such as walnut or maple. You also
have a choice of reclining mechanisms - you can opt for manual or mechanical. With the latter the best models can
move your softly down to a horizontal position in just 15 seconds.
So if you want to adopt an ergonomic lifestyle or just want to experience total floating relaxation, check out
the wide range of models available from online vendors and find the zero gravity recliner that's right for you. You
can get addons including a memory foam kit and extending footrest.
