I have an atrocious posture whenever I sit in regular chairs, and for some reason yoga balls vastly improve my concentration and posture. It might just be a neurodivergent thing, but it helps me so much for some reason.

Exercise ball you can train your core sitting on chair can’t the ball forces you to sit up straight and take frequent breaks

For short periods of time, such as a few minutes. If you sit on a ball for long periods of time, core muscles fatigue because they are not getting enough support then slouching occurs. A good office chair and great ergonomics can help maintain a great posture. Your input is appreciated!

My Chiropractor suggested that I get a stability ball to replace my office chair because of pelvic torsion three degrees towards the left and help correct misalignment between visits. Do you suggest not using a stability ball in the case of torsions?

@rngnv4551 We are glad you asked! Generally speaking, it would be most ideal for workers to sit on a stable surface such as a good office chair with back support and arm support. If you are interested in specific recommendations, please reach out for an ergonomic assessment of your workstation. Stable surfaces provide far greater support than unstable surfaces.
