Can anyone recommend good desk chairs that will help heal the
body? I've heard these can cost in the neighborhood of $600 but
I'm ready to invest.

Thanks,
Bill

Bill, I'm thinkin' that all $600 chairs heal are the profit pictures of
their manufacturers, distributors and retailers.

Now, if you *really* want to give away your money...

I hear ya Blinky, but I think the guy who told me about this $600
wasn't kidding. I just can't remember what brand he said they
were, and don't remember who he was either. I met him online
playing poker when this conversation came up, and he was someone I
knew at one time as being reliable source.

I wonder how many of those exercisers have been sold?

I've bought *cars* for less than that; one of them lasted me for years,
and hardly anything ever broke on it. Okay, the frame, but we fixed
that with a splint of wood and carriage bolts.

That place is only a couple miles from me, so if nobody buys those
excercisers for $14,000+ ... well, there goes at least part of the
neighborhood.

Every city has at least one shop which specializes in weird
ergonomic chairs of all kinds. Knee chairs, massage chairs,
semi-normal-but-special chairs, etc.

Yellow Pages.

Or just drive around and look for one or call some doctor's
office.

I'm sure the AMA and hospitals would love to have you let them know
when you find these "healing chairs". Doesn't it come with a palm
that slaps you in the forehead, a speaker that yells "HEAL!", so you
get knocked backwards?

If you are sitting so long that your butt gets sore, learn to do butt
clenches even if you have to alternate cheeks. Just don't do it when
the mail guy shows up or he might not come around anymore and you'll
have to pick up your mail. You're supposed to get off your ass every
hour and walk around. Find some stairs.

I like to have an Aeron. They're more in the US$1000 area.

There are used ones around but they're going to be in large cities. New
York, LA.

SteelCase and Haworth also have similar upper scale offerings.

AFA the Aeron I'd really prefer to sit in one before I buy.
