The designers and ergonomists at WBX have come up with a truly ergonomic saddle stool with the "Ascot.
The WBX Ascot's saddle shape combined with its unique mechanism allows the stylist or operator to move forwards and backwards freely and with the push of a lever lock the saddle in any desired position whilst the second lever adjust the seat height.. When you sit in an Ascot your pelvis is in a near neutral position … just like the saddle on a horse the pelvic position allows your spinal curves to balance more easily in proper alignment and reduces muscle strain.
There is no need for a lumbar adjustment when you sit on the Ascot because it maintains your correct lumbar curve naturally; the stool promotes good arm and hand control which is especially beneficial whilst cutting and styling hair, furthermore it improves circulation and encourages correct posture and mobility.
Over the last few years customers have stopped by to see us at Salon International Exhibition telling us that since they have been using the Ascot their general well being has improved immensly saying that their upper arm and wrist aches have been significantly reduced, their posture so much better and no longer suffering from tired legs after a busy day and week in the salon.
Rsi [ repetitive strain injury] is a modern day condition in the general workplace but the WBX Ascot is the perfect ergonomic saddle stool to get you through those tiresome days …
There are many saddle seats on the market today but there is only one WBX Ascot with its unique shape and range of adjustment …make sure you get the genuine article and always insist on the WBX embroidered logo. Backed up by our guarantee.
