According to a National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, roughly 25% of US Americans sit more than 8 hours a day. With all that time spent sitting, good posture may matter more than ever. Fortunately, the right chair can potentially encourage better posture to promote improved back health. We know what you're thinking now, "What chairs are good for back support? Are bean bag chairs good for your back?"
We're here to tell you that, yes, proper use of bean bags actually might be good for back comfort!
Top 3 Potential Physical Health Benefits of Bean Bags
Bean bag chairs get a bad reputation when it comes to postural support, but we think that reputation is unfair. Used properly, a bean bag may actually be more comfortable than a traditional chair, which in turn may reduce back pain.
Can Promote Muscle Relaxation
Who doesn't love lounging around or taking a good nap? Believe it or not, one small study found that napping in bean bags may actually promote comfort and muscle relaxation.
We can't argue with the results of that study, because we find that napping in one of our 7.5-foot loungers with a soft faux furbean bag cover is super conductive to getting a killer nap.

May Help Reduce Back Pain
Proper posture is incredibly important when it comes to reducing back pain. Specifically, slouching for long periods of time can mean back problems like pain and increased likelihood of lower back injury. That's why it's critical to make sure that your seat doesn't promote poor posture.
When combined with good posture, it's possible that ergonomic bean bags help rather than contribute to lower back pain. What's important is picking the right seating solution that promotes a comfortable sitting position. We find that pairing our Sacks with our ottoman can take some pressure off our lower backs to potentially reduce discomfort.
Can Improve Comfort Levels
We ask you this: what's more comfortable than sleeping on a cloud? Probably not much, and many customers say that curling up on one of our large bean bags is akin to cuddling with a cloud. Our Sacks owe their comfort to their high-quality memory foam-like bean bag filling that conforms to their users' body shape.
