The rising prevalence of lower back pain is expected to drive the growth of the ergonomic chair market going forward. Lower back pain refers to discomfort or pain in the lumbar region of the spine, which is the area between the lower ribs and the top of the legs. This increasing prevalence can be attributed to an increasingly sedentary lifestyle, which weakens core muscles, and the aging population, leading to more cases of degenerative spinal conditions. An ergonomic chair helps alleviate lower back pain by providing proper lumbar support and promoting correct posture, reducing strain on the lower spine during prolonged sitting. For instance, in June 2023, according to the World Health Organization, a Switzerland-based intergovernmental organization, the global number of people affected by low back pain (LBP) is expected to increase from 619 million in 2020 to 843 million by 2050. Therefore, the rising prevalence of lower back pain is propelling the growth of the ergonomic chair market.
