It has been shown that prolonged sitting and maintaining rigid postures can induce and exacerbate back pain. Postural fixity can have painful and debilitating implications including spinal shrinkage, increased intervertebral disc pressure and edema in the legs. Incorporating movement within a chair?s seat in the form of continuous passive movement (CPM) has been shown to assuage these physiological effects. However, apart from physiological studies, measuring effects of task performance, back pain, personal comfort, motion sickness, and the extent of torso movement are sparse. Experiment 1 measured the affect of CPM built within a chair?s seat pan on these factors by comparing static and CPM conditions among 36 participants, half of ...
