The Backfitpro Flair:

Sofas and Chairs for relaxing, screen viewing, reading

 

Given the number of requests from clients to provide recommendations for sofas and chairs, Dr. McGill at Backfitpro has partnered with LeatherCraft to produce a sofa and reclining chair with special fiber wrapped 2.5 pound high density foam (and high quality Italian leathers).  An integrated pouch in matching leather to hold the LumbAir dynamic lumbar cushion can be added (recommended), and an extra 4” can be added to the height to the seat back to support a head pillow.  Note that the seat height is 19″ off the floor - some people will enjoy a footstool when not in a reclining position. 

​

Please be reminded that the reclining position is not usually recommended for those with sciatic nerve pain or referred pain down the legs.  If you are unsure please contact us and we can help you to guide your decision.
