Abstract:

A backrest having features that support proper sitting posture of a user to improve back health and posture may be utilized. The backrest may include a front wall with wings extending to the left and right and diagonally forward to reduce Kyphosis of a user when sitting against the backrest. A combination of the front wall and wings may causing the user's (i) back ribs to be raised and gently tilted forward and (ii) thoracic spine region to be gently thrusted forward. By thrusting the thoracic spine region and raising and tilting the back ribs, a user's abdominal cavity may be expanded, and thereby reinforcing the ideal positioning of the cervical spine so that the user's head naturally positions on axis and does not “dump” forward.
