It has been awhile!

The past week and a half has been a bit challenging as I have been suffering through a chronic back pain episode. I say episode because usually once a year my back goes out on me and I suffer through days, and sometimes weeks, of teeth clenching pain.

Thanks to the many visits to my chiropractor, countless rounds of icing, stretching and walking, I am finally feeling up to working again. At this point, my Scandinavian designed Variable Knee Chair by Peter Opsvik for Stokke is the most comfortable position for sitting.

Unfortunately I think that Stokke no longer carries this chair as I could not find it on their website anywhere. That is too bad because this is a chair for anyone with back issues! As I write this I am enjoying perfect alignment of my knees and spine, giving welcomed relief to my back and happiness and gratitude for my ability to work once again.

If you are interested in purchasing a similar typle of chair you can find one at backworks, a UK company.

Hi Tricia - glad to hear your're feeling better. Those chairs are awkward to get into (especially in a skirt!), but they are totally comfy once settled. Hope you continue to be on the mend!

Linda, you are right but the ability to sit for longer than two minutes is so worth the awkwardness. Once I have fully recovered I'll revert back to my standard chair but for now this is a God send!

It has been awhile! Welcome back!! Funny, but you start to worry when you don't see your regular reads popping up! Sorry for your pain, glad your on the mend!

So sorry to hear this-but can relate. The exact thing happens to me every so often. My remedies are the same. It's awful! Glad to see you're back. Take good care. That chair would be just the ticket-wouldn't it?

TRicia,
Ntohing is worse than back pain. I slipped a disk once and it was awful. So glad you are on the mend!
