HÅG Capisco review
The reviewer is a physical therapist who recommends the HÅG Capisco to patients with certain types of back issues, particularly those who need to avoid static sitting positions. The chair's design promotes active sitting and core engagement, which can be therapeutic for people with mechanical low back pain. However, they emphasize it's not appropriate for everyone - people with acute injuries, severe disc problems, or those who need maximal support should avoid it. For the right patient population, it can be an excellent tool for maintaining movement throughout the day and preventing stiffness. They personally don't use one as they prefer traditional support for their own work, but they've seen good outcomes in patients who are appropriate candidates.
