How to Choose the Right Stressless® Chair for Your Posture

Your chair plays a bigger part in your health than you may imagine. Hours spent sitting can take a toll on your posture, especially if the furniture doesn't support the body’s natural alignment. 

Finding the right chair isn’t all about aesthetics. It’s about how it supports your body every single day. That’s where Stressless furniture makes all the difference. 

Designed and crafted in Norway, each Stressless furniture is engineered to move with your body, offering unmatched support and comfort. 

The Stressless range of chairs combines Scandinavian craftsmanship with cutting-edge ergonomic design, helping you sit, move and feel better, particularly after a long day at work. 

This article takes you through everything you need to know about choosing the right Stressless chair for your posture. 

How do You Sit?

Everyone has a different sitting style. Some like to lean back, while others sit upright. Stressless chairs are designed to follow your body’s rhythm. The patented Plus™ and Glide™ systems adjust automatically as you shift, ensuring consistent neck and lower-back support.

Stressless Paris High Back is an elegant choice with its tall profile and soft cushioning gives gentle, firm support throughout the day. Stressless Tokyo Adjustable Headrest, on the other hand, offers flexibility, letting you control your comfort while maintaining perfect posture. 

Which Chair Fits Your Body Type Best?

The right chair should fit you perfectly, as if it's made for you. Stressless chairs are available in multiple sizes to ensure a natural fit for every body type. A petite frame may find comfort in the Stressless Paris Low Back, known for its slim contours and elegant shape, while still providing lumbar support. If you are taller, Stressless Magic, designed with its generous proportions, offers full-body support.

Remember when seated, your feet should rest flat on the floor, and your shoulders should align comfortably with the backrest.

How Will You Use Your Recliner Every Day?

Think about your daily routine. For work-from-home comfort, the Stressless Ruby Home Office and Stressless David Home Office chairs combine ergonomic design with practical mobility. They’re tailored for long sitting hours, helping you stay supported and focused without compromising style. Stressless Reno, on the other hand, wraps you in soft cushioning that gently adapts to your movements. 

Adding a matching ottoman can help support you better. Elevating your legs reduces strain on your lower back and improves circulation, maintaining better posture effortlessly.

What Finish and Function Best Suit Your Space?

A chair should look as good as it feels. Stressless chairs come in a variety of premium leathers and fabrics, each designed for both comfort and longevity.  

At Valentines Furniture, you can customise your Stressless chair to suit your taste, from fabric or leather choices to colours and base designs. This personalisation ensures that your chair enhances both your posture and your home’s aesthetic.

Why Choose a Stressless Chair for Better Posture?

The right Stressless chair doesn’t just support your posture. Designed to follow your body’s natural motion, it helps release tension, align your spine, and keeps you comfortable for hours. Supporting the natural curve of your spine alleviates strain and promotes alignment. Over time, it not only becomes part of your home but part of your lifestyle.
