Problems solved by technology

Thus, many people find even a well designed chair uncomfortable and tired when the person sits in the chair all day, such as in an office.
The problem is especially acute with secretaries, computer terminal operators and those that have chronic back problems, because the chair provided with a back support cushion cannot adequately support the person's back.
