Key features

• •ERGONOMIC BENCH - The simplest kneeling bench to sit in a natural, balanced and relaxed posture that holds your spine in a perfect position. Tensions in the back and shoulders are prevented and muscles are relaxed. The proper alignment of your body posture will allow you to reduce tensions and stress.
• •COMFORTABLE MEDITATION - Designed and handmade in local massive wild cherrywood in Quebec by ergonomics/posture specialists. The curved and arched seat provides optimal comfort and support without the need of a cushion. THREE height sizes available depending on your height and flexability. Low (6" height for those 6').
• •BACK AND BODY SOLUTION - The open sitting angle between thigh and torso and the kneeling position (aka Seiza position) allows the back to automatically straighten so the spine balances properly over the pelvis, rediscovering its natural curve decreasing damaging compressive loads on the low back, allowing deeper breathing, better circulation, energy flow, and general well-being.
• •TRAVEL VERSION - The Original IKUKO bench can be easily dismantled by removing both legs. Slip it into its 100% Organic Cotton bag travel bag and take it with you for all travels. Use it for Yoga, prayer, seiza, all-day workshops, retreats, as a stool, a chair for teachers reading to kids, a kneeling or a low bench. Bring IKUKO with you everywhere!
• •POSTURE ALIGNMENT - This relaxing bench is a wonderful alternative to a meditation cushion, zafu, zambuton, or chair. Designed for those struggling with a standardized cross-legged position and anyone wanting to relax muscles, increase energy level, improve circulation, and expand shoulders for a gratifying deep prana breathing.
