The professional body for physiotherapists in Australia the Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA), recently endorsed the Bambach Saddle Seat as a chair that will help prevent back pain and improve seated posture. It also says dentists will find they can get closer to patients during normal dental procedures and that they can keep their back in a more neutral position.

All new Bambach Saddle Seats will now carry a sticker showing their endorsement which acknowledges the chair's role in maintaining natural spinal curves, reducing neck, shoulder and back pain, preventing musculoskeletal disorders and encouraging upright posture. It adds that the special shape of the seat helps maintain the natural curves which means the discs are not put under pressure, helping to avoid back pain.
