What Makes The Ergolab Stealth Pro So Special?

The Ergolab Stealth Chair was specifically designed with music, stage lighting, and video engineers in mind so that they get the comfort they deserve.

This chair works perfectly with the height of any regular desk, table, or console so that you don’t have to strain or put your body in bad positions while working.

What is also unique about the chair is that it was made with a non-reflective midnight black color.

This makes it so that no lights will reflect off the chair or be visible to anyone in the crowd. Making the main focus of the show on the performance and atmosphere you’re creating.

It’s one of the few chairs on the market that not only provides back support but also keeps in mind the music industry professional that spends time in a live setting.

But you don’t have to only be in the music industry in order to enjoy the Ergolab Stealth.

People working from home or anyone who spends a majority of their time sitting can use the Ergolab to improve back health and proper posture.

The Ergolab Improves Your Back Health

Instead of any regular chair that can provide you with support, the Ergolab Stealth was created to improve your back alignment and health.

And you know more than anyone how important it is to keep your spine and back healthy and in top shape if you are to give the best performance you can.

The long hours on the job can often distract professionals from being able to concentrate on the task at hand.

The unrelenting back pain can also cause the need for frequent breaks and can lower your productivity while trying to perform.

The Ergolab makes sure that when you shift your weight forward there is unbinding, stress-free support and additional lower back support to prevent any further injuries.

It supports your lower back because the backrest can actually massage the lumbar area to help increase blood flow.

Why Ergonomic Back Support Is Needed

When scientists began researching back support almost 40 years ago there was significant data stating that the pressure on the invertebrate discs in your lower back increased by 40% when going from a standing to sitting position.

When a person starts to sit, their thigh raises so that the back of the knee is in a 90-degree position. This will cause the pelvis to rotate backward and cause the tailbone to start turning underneath you.

The position of your body at this point is what causes your intervertebral discs to start stacking on top of each other.

And it’s the reason the invertebrate discs experience so much pressure but your discs aren’t the only parts of your body experiencing this pressure.

You will also experience pressure on the nerves that radiate from the spinal cord to the lower part of your body.

And also the connective tissues that are in the lower back area.

All of this pressure can lead to the traumatic disorder of “back pain” and a majority of individuals experience this pain from sitting for long periods of time.

Ergolab’s Back Pain Solution

This data on how the back experiences pain in a seated position led the Ergolab designers to create their seat pan with enough downward slope to keep the lordosis curve in the lower back.

This downward slope combined with the convex shape of the backrest helps you to eliminate any harmful pressure on your inter vertebral discs.

This works in both the active working position and the resting, passive position.

Another helpful benefit from the design is that it relieves pressure on the actual seat surface, which can eliminate uncomfortable and unhealthy pressure points in your thigh and tailbone area.

Couple that relief with the convex backrest shape, as opposed to other concave shapes, and that will keep your back muscles refreshed during long work sessions.

This is mainly due to the free-floating backrest that moves with you whether you lean back or position yourself forward.

The constant rolling massage your lower back receives will help increase the blood flow and increase the hydration of your intervertebral discs.

All of these solutions help bring to surface a new way to sit healthily when doing your work as a stage lighting professional.

My Review

I absolutely love this chair. I have 2 – Stealth Standard at home and Stealth Chair Pro that I use on shows.

The reason I bought the chair was to avoid the house chairs at most venues or sitting on a road case at a outdoor concert.

The Standard and Pro both fit in the back of my Jeep using the side door.

Summary

There is no other chair that provides as much back health support as the Ergolab Stealth Chair for stage lighting professionals.

But you don’t have to be a specific stage lighting professional to enjoy, as anyone who sits for long periods in their job will benefit from the Stealth Pro.
