In light of the recent discussions on ergonomics, I was wondering if anyone uses a balance ball chair at work (kind of a "low tech" inexpensive option). See http://tinyurl.com/yrgky
I used a balance ball extensively for physical therapy when I was recovering from a broken neck, and was wondering if using this type of chair for even part of the day might help with some shoulder/back fatigue. It definitely wouldn't allow you to slouch, as you'd fall right off!
