Abstract

An apparatus for supporting a user in a seated position is disclosed. The apparatus includes a seat for supporting the user in a seated position, and a base. A connection mechanism couples the seat to the base in such a way as to allow undulatory movement of the seat relative to the base in response to motions of the user's spine to thereby reduce the total spinal movement of the user's spine.
