The Salli aim is to provide genuine, healthy sitting solutions based on the latest ergonomic principles which provide a neutral sitting position - placing the least amount of stress possible on your body.
The first Salli Saddle Chair was introduced at the Geneva Invention Expo in the autumn of 1990. Since then, there have been hundreds of thousands worldwide - the concept is well proven.
Salli Systems have been the leading developer in sitting health and avoidance of sitting disorders (SD). Innovative work and effective development have taken Salli a long way towards understanding how to attain good sitting health.

Staff are sitting up straighter which is great for their backs.
After years of sitting hunched over a computer I developed terrible posture and a sore neck and back. After switching over to this saddle chair my back pain has gone and I’m sitting and standing up straight!
It takes a few weeks of adjust to the new seating position but once you do it is well worth it. I couldn’t go back to a regular chair again.
David is extremely helpful - absolute please to deal with.
I have a young employee who was wanting to earn a living and live a life. However due to waiting for major back surgery was unable to sit to work.
It appeared that her choices were limited, then I brought her this chair. Thanks for enabling me to keep a team member happy and for giving her a life!
Have been using my stool for about a month now and am loving it. Took a bit of getting used to but now its so comfortable and I am definitely feeling the difference when it comes to a normal chair and my Salli stool - no more back pain. I wont be going back to a standard office chair.
I have found the Salli saddle seat to be a comfortable alternative to standard chair/ stool seating, more importantly aptly serving the particular medical purpose it was purchased for ie. gluteal tendonitis & bursitis. I am also enjoying the versatility of use in different situations. Thank you, Carol M.
Very happy. Came with clear instructions for use and have had no problems/pain while getting used to it.
Love my new Salli Chair. Got used to to very quickly. No complaints about service, delivery or quality.
Only sad thing is no distributor in Tas where I could have tried one first (not that it really mattered) but something to perhaps look into in the future.
Exactly what I’ve been looking for, great if you want to stop destroying your back, neck and hips. Product quality seems good, completely satisfied.
As a private trader I spend a lot of time seated in front of a computer. Over 23 years of trading I’ve tried all sorts of ergonomic chairs and endured severe bouts of lower back problems, some of which have required hospitalization.
Since using a Salli Swayfit I’m over the moon… my lower back pain has markedly reduced. Based on my experience I have no qualms recommending a Salli chair to anyone who spends a lot of time in an office chair.

I have always hated working at a desk but this changes everything. No more neck pain, fatigue, and tight hips. My saddle seat keeps me focused and alert and supports me in a perfect posture. Totally worth it!
I'm a dental therapist, since using my Salli chair my posture has improved and back pain has all but resolved. I can't go back to a normal chair again. Postage was very fast. Assembly was super easy - no need for any tools.
Love my Salli chair and my back is better for using it!
I’m so happy I upgraded wheels and leather. Rolls like a dream. Comfortable to sit on and work from. I was worried it would take a while to break in but haven’t had any issues
This chair is life changing! I bought the Salli Dental chair for use in my vet practice. It has improved my posture and relieved my daily back pain at work. I love how adjustable it is and the addition of the foot height adjust is fantastic for hands free use in surgery. The wheels roll silently and freely which makes moving around on it a breeze. I will be getting one for home use as well.
The idea of being able to adjust the width of this saddle chair intrigued me and after some research I decided to try it. I found the chair was initially a little hard and my bottom would get sore, but after a few days of use I no longer noticed it. I have tried out a few different width settings now and I've found one suitable for me, being female and short. I feel it was a valuable purchase!
A number of my staff - dentists, dental hygienists and dental assistants - in my dental practice have suffered back pain at work. We have purchased a number of Salli seats over the years (more and more staff requesting them over other dental stools available) and these have enabled the staff to work their shifts pain-free; happy staff = great team moral! Highly recommend these chairs to anyone suffering back issues!
I purchased my Salli Swingfit 4 years after graduating dentistry as I was having some upper and lower back issues and could feel that my posture was poor at work. My only regret is not having purchased the chair sooner to prevent these issues from arising in the first place! It is a very comfortable chair and of high quality. Since purchasing the chair I have also fallen pregnant and I think working pregnant would have been even more uncomfortable if I did not have this chair and I have been able to work up until almost full term without any issues. I highly recommend the Salli products and I have also been impressed with the customer service and with how quickly my chair arrived. Thanks Salli Team and David!
I have a bad back fracture line l4 l5 cervical spondylitis . I had a lot of trouble as you would assume and looked at my options. Used the bambach chair ,a very well built chair but extremely heavy and cumbersome. I got a salli the very basic version in 2012 and have said goodbye to lower back troubles. This new on I just got has the new wheels i a treat to use. i will be ordering the new wheels for the older chair as well . Highly recommend to anyone working dentist technicians .
I had several conversations regarding the product before decising to purchase. At no stage was I pressured in any way to purchase anything, and no matter how many questions it was not too much trouble.
Once I placed the order, it arrived in the time frames promised, and in good order. I have been using the chair since the day it arrived and I'm very happy with it.
I had huge back pain for many years until I came across Salli. I was skeptical at first as I had tried many so-called "solutions" without success. It took me a bit of time to get used to, but now I can sit all day without pain. I love the adjustability of this model and the leather colours. I was also prepared to pay extra for the 10 year warranty - I will definitely be using my salli for at least 10 years! I can't recommend these chairs enough.
As a watchmaker I have a fairly unique workstation setup. Working with small parts at different levels with a regular style chair invariably lead to poor posture and back issues. With the Salli Elbowrest I have found my posture is greatly improved, my back issues are gone, and my work is easier. I would highly recommend the Salli to people working in my profession."
We’ve been using the Salli saddle chair with our standing desk for more than a month now and it’s helped us maintain our energy levels and focus. Yes I still like to stand up at the desk but now when I use the Salli saddle chair I am still enjoying the health and well-being benefits rather than sitting back down on a traditional chair.
The lower back and neck pain, the lingering results of a distant professional rugby league career, are no longer there. That was the result of using the standing desk and now continues with the Salli saddle chair. If you do spend a lot of time sitting down, even at a regular desk, the Salli saddle chair can be an absolute game changer.
It will help with maintaining a good posture and improve your overall wellbeing and help you avoid the detrimental effects of sitting in a regular chair for extended periods of time.
When you are engrossed in your work and busy sending out emails and writing documents, the time can fly by very quickly. Before you know, you’ve been sitting at your desk for hours and barely moved. It’s not a big deal until the day you do stand up and your back decides it’s had enough. Which is exactly what happened to me. My desk chair and the posture I had acquired was causing significant pain and really impacting my life. When I trialled the Salli chair it forced me sit and move differently. To be more conscious of my posture and allowed me to use different muscles while I worked. Together with a standing desk, the Salli chair allows me to find the perfect position to work at and has assisted in reducing my back pain significantly.
"My back ache disappeared the day I got my first Salli Saddle Chair. I now have 3, and have had many clients ask, test and then buy their own over the years. So much so that I am now selling them through my Clinic."
