THE SYMMETRIKIT SENCILLA CHAIR

Sitting well is harder work than it looks.

It takes effort to maintain a balanced position and, if you cannot do that for yourself, then the chair has to do it for you.

Without proper support you may develop poor posture which can have negative physiological outcomes and can make activities of daily living more difficult. Trying to balance under the effects of Gravity is also tiring and can lead to fatigue.

The Sencilla Chair can easily be adjusted – NO TOOLS REQUIRED - to provide the necessary Postural Support and Pressure Care to maximise comfort and relaxation.

Easily achieve the correct Seat depth, Seat width, Arm Rest height, Leg Rest height and Back Rest height without having to use tools to ensure the very best Posture, Pressure (Re-)Distribution and Comfort.
