About SmartSeat™

Posture Corrector to Relieve Lower Back and Sciatica Pain. Say goodbye to lower back and sciatica pain.

SmartSeat™ posture corrector will make sitting with legs UN-crossed feel good. The special slope of the seat means that the sitter can comfortably sit for long periods in pelvic neutral, or even anteverted (tilt forward) or rock the pelvis for more flexibility. This seating posture helps relieve lower back and sciatica pain as it takes the act of sitting from a negative to neutral by enabling better weight distribution of the upper and lower body, giving a feeling of lightness. Sitting in a posterior tilt is a feeling of heaviness and compression. Using this posture corrector seat, you will feel lighter, pain-free, and more flexible!

Usage Instructions

WHY SMARTSEAT™ WORKS

Sitting with legs crossed feels comfortable because the body is smart and adapts to this posture. SmartSeat™ provides a way to erase this muscle memory and acts as a posture corrector by substituting a better, bio-mechanically correct seated posture to relieve lower back pain, spider veins, and sciatic nerve pain. Additionally, you will avoid:

  1. Abdominals inhibited—especially internal oblique muscles.

  2. Pelvis in a posterior tilt so there is compression on the femoral nerve, artery and veins bilaterally which restricts circulation to the lower extremities.

  3. Blood pressure increases due to compression.

  4. Foot pain and numbness due to adverse neural tension which causes pressure on the peroneal nerve which may lead to long-term nerve damage.

  5. Lumbar spine (low back) & nerves compressed in tilted posture.

  6. Sciatic nerve and piriformis muscle stressed.

  7. Femur (thighbone) abducted (rotated inward) which leads to lumpy looking thighs and spider veins.

Inspired by Clinical Advisor Marika Molnar PT, the first to recognize the issues of sitting with crossed legs.


SMARTSEAT™ Testimonials

  • SmartSeat™ is great because it naturally helps me to sit right and use my core. Having scoliosis, it keeps my back in better alignment. I can sit on it for hours at a time. The other great perk is that I can’t cross my legs when I’m sitting on it, but it does it in a very instinctive way that I do not even find myself trying to cross my legs! I like to alternate sitting on it and not sitting on it. But all in all, it’s a great product!

    — Lauren Chemenda

  • I use this product every day. The support and maneuverability helps my spine feel good. The results have been measurable and it’s fool-proof to use!

    — Rachel Pietrangelo, SKOGEN Partner

  • I initially could not sit on this seat for more than ten minutes, but now working great for me!! It relieves the soreness in my hips within minutes. So keep trying it if it doesn’t work for you initially.

    — Kelly L.

  • SmartSeat immediately placed my body in a comfortable position while sitting at my desk. Soft enough to allow a gradual and gentle shift in my usual lazy back position rather than forcing my body into a position.

  • Sitting on SmartSeat is initially hard to do, but necessary to fix your posture. However, placing it at the low black against my desk chair is like getting a massage and posture lift without doing anything.

    — Anne S. Writer

  • I saw this on NBC news with Greenville Technical college students tested out Smart Seat is a product that helps your correct your posture as students stated "it makes you engage your core and pelvic floor and sit up straight like you would on a Bicycle seat and it Works"!

  • Smart Seat immediately placed my body in a comfortable position while sitting at my desk. Soft enough to allow a gradual and gentle shift in my usual lazy back position—it didn't shove or force a position, and it is hard enough to hold my body there for quite a while without needing to get up or remove the “seat.”

Learn about the stand-alone Wedges by SmartSeat™ we only sell in our store as a lightweight product to practice the gains from SmartSeat™ training.

“The PMI Wedge! This is the winner prop to incorporate into teaching in groups, or 1 on 1. Clients need support for their wrists and under their knees, under sit bones, or side-lying. They work! They are amazing and they are perfect! They don’t slip around and they are wipeable, lightweight and take up little or no storage space. They were a huge hit at Pilates Day classes. Everyone loved them. I tried them with my entire family. I placed them under my back for my scoliosis and loved the way they felt. I can see using them for long drives. They have many uses. I am buying them for our two studio locations!”
— Innetta Dziugelis Studio Owner
“Why buy Wedges? because they stand alone apart from SmartSeat™; they are light, portable, and easily slip into your bag: sit on one or two to maintain the postural benefits you are developing with SmartSeat™. The pair measure 7”x7”x2” & weigh less than 2 oz.

I love the wedges! First, the high-density foam means they’re super lightweight, but sturdy (I’ve had mine for a few years and they’re still fine). Second, they can go anywhere - behind my back, under my sitz bones, under my legs - anywhere I need a lift or more support. My scoliosis clients love them! Finally, they’re inexpensive, easy to store and clean, and completely useful.”
