Abstract
A method of using a seating device including a base, a plurality of roller mechanisms, a seat operably associated with the base via the plurality of roller mechanisms for movement relative thereto, the seat including a leading edge in a direction of travel, comprises receiving a user's sitting area on the seat of the seating device with the seat in a position centered over the base; and based on user input the seat moving toward the leading edge in the direction of travel away from the seat centered over the base while the user's muscles are engaged to maintain an upright posture, helping to improve the user's motor control, stability and strength over time.
Claims18
A method of using a seating device including a base having a convex upper surface, a plurality of roller mechanisms, a seat having a convex upper surface and a concave lower surface that is operably associated with the convex upper surface of the base via the plurality of roller mechanisms for movement relative thereto, the seat including a leading edge in a direction of travel, comprising:
- receiving a user's sitting area on the convex upper surface of the seat of the seating device with the seat in a position centered over the base;
- based on user input the seat moving toward the leading edge in the direction of travel away from the seat centered over the base while the user's muscles are engaged to maintain an upright posture, helping to improve the user's motor control, stability and strength over time, and whereby the leading edge of the seat dips in the direction of travel.
A method of using a seating device including a base having a convex upper surface, a plurality of roller mechanisms, a seat having a convex upper surface and a concave lower surface that is operably associated with the convex upper surface of the base via the plurality of roller mechanisms for movement relative thereto, the seat including a leading edge in a direction of travel, comprising:
- receiving a user's sitting area on the seat of the seating device with the seat in a position centered over the base with the seat at maximum height;
- based on user input the seat moving toward the leading edge in the direction of travel away from the seat centered over the base while the user's muscles are engaged to maintain an upright posture, helping to improve the user's motor control, stability and strength over time, and whereby no portion of the seat is above the maximum height.
A method of using a seating device including a base having a convex upper surface, a plurality of roller mechanisms, a seat having a convex upper surface and a concave lower surface that is operably associated with and free floating with respect to the convex upper surface of the base via the plurality of roller mechanisms for movement relative thereto, the seat including a leading edge in a direction of travel, comprising:
- receiving a user's sitting area on the convex upper surface of the seat of the seating device with the seat in a position centered over the base;
- based on user input the seat moving toward the leading edge in the direction of travel away from the seat centered over the base while the user's muscles are engaged to maintain an upright posture, helping to improve the user's motor control, stability and strength over time, and whereby the seat is free floating with respect to the convex upper surface of the base and within the seating device.
