New small Salli Saddle Chairs

Salli Systems is introducing a new, small saddle chair. Salli Small SwingFit and Salli Small MultiAdjuster are part of the Salli product family: handmade in Finland, with a ten-year warranty.

The new smaller chairs are an answer to the customers wishes. The seat is about four centimetres narrower than in the traditional Salli, so now it it easy for everybody to find the suitable model. It is essential that the sitting bones are on the softest place of the chair, to be able to keep the back upright easily.

Both models have Salli Base as a standard. Rub your soles against it and you'll get an invigorating, reflexological massage that enhances your wellbeing.

The new small chairs are at our dealers' shops and showrooms during March. Find the dealer closest to you and have a try!

Changes in adjustment mechnisms

To make adjusting the chair as easy as possible we have renewed the width adjustment mechanisms of Salli Swing models and Salli MultiAdjuster. The width is now adjusted by a knob in the front of the seat. When the mechanism is locked the width cannot accidentally change while sitting.

Also the mechanism that controls the swinging movement has been updated. Now the stiffness or looseness of the swinging movement is controlled by a knob under the seat.

Both the new mechanisms are our own design, with patents pending.

Salli and Contour Design in cooperation towards better work ergonomics

Salli and ​Contour Design have started cooperation that brings the two companies together e.g. at expos. Ergonomics consists of many things – Contour's and Salli's products support each other and help employees to feel better at work and thereby prevent SRI (repetitive strain injuries) and sick leaves.

​Current knowledge of sitting health

Because of the gap in the middle of the seat there is no uncomfortable pressure on the genital area, and thus no need to turn the pelvis away from the pressure. That would result in a slouched sitting position where the back is rounded. The healthy posture can now be obtained easily and maintained during the whole day. The gap enhances both genital and internal pelvic health.

Towards healthier life with the employer’s help

Marie Jalkanen, vice CEO of Salli Systems, tells of the world's healthiest sitting concept and about how Salli takes care of its employees. Employees are the company's most valuable capital, and employers should pay attention to work ergonomics even before employees have ailments or illnesses. Tools and furniture should be adapted to human activity rather than vice versa.

​Find the right way to sit

In many cases back pains are related to sitting. Sitting on a saddle chair is one of the most effective solutions. It connects several important elements that help to maintain and promote the proper sitting position, improve postural alignment, strengthen muscular endurance, and avoid health disorders. It allows distributing the load between the spine, and hips and legs.

​Dental work can be easier and more profitable

Many dentists finish their careers before retirement age because of health problems . When sitting on a Salli Saddle chair, the upper body pressure is on the bones. The pelvic floor is free from pressure, which boosts health and comfort. Saddle sitting also enhances the circulation in the legs because of the wide and healthy 135 degree angles in the knee and hip joints.

The effect of the pelvic floor muscles on sitting health

The activity of the pelvic floor muscles, of both men and women, is closely related to how the muscles in the entire middle body function. The abdominal and back muscles are involved in the regulation of both the pelvic position and the abdominal cavity pressure. Good ergonomics at work reduce the harmful effects of sitting.
