Health Benefits of Using Steppie:
Facts About Sedentary Jobs
Too much sitting is bad for us. Prolonged inactivity throughout the day is bad for our health The medical term for sedentary behaviour is ‘sedentarism’. A behaviour whereby you are primarily inactive and sedentary during the day. Such behaviour has been shown to be extremely damaging to your health.Everyone - with a predominantly sedentary job - knows the facts all too well: We need to stand at adjustable desks. That is why we have them, or should have them. But when you are inactive and stand without moving, you become tired more quickly – far more quickly than when you walk, for example. This is why you need to move!
Steppie enables you to stand at an adjustable desk with negligible movement. The slightest body movement such as reaching for something or looking to one side causes the balance board to tip, thus activating the body’s core musculature (inner, deep muscles that stabilise the spine and ensure the body is in balance). In addition to the movements resulting from normal desk activity, many users will intuitively stand from time to time, tipping the board from side to side. It is natural for the body to move, rather than being locked in a static position.
How Steppie works? Steppie ergonomic balance board is as brilliant as it is simple:
Easy To Use:
In contrast to a traditional ball balance board that requires a great deal of energy, concentration and balance to master, Steppie requires none of the above and can be easily used by anyone. Locating the balance point is easy and the board’s seesaw motion is more controlled than a standard balance board.
Benefits of Using Steppie:
The simplicity of the design is equaled only by the benefits of using the board:
• You can stand for longer periods - a little movement is less tiring than standing still
• Steppie improves blood circulation
• Improves concentration & productivity
• Steppie promotes a natural posture
• Using Steppie Activates and thus trains your core musculature (inner, deep muscles that support and balance the spine)
• Activates and thus trains your body balance
• Activates and trains foot joints, knees and hips
• Activity burns energy – you lose weight
Steppie is suitable for use in sport:
Regular use of Steppie at work - or training while you watch TV, for example, - improves your coordination, balance and reflexes and trains your core muscles, which are hard to ‘get to’. Regular training on the balance board prevents most knee and ankle injuries! This is why a balance board is a regular part of training for professional skiers and also many football and handball players. A survey carried out among women handball players showed that proper training on a balance board can reduce knee and ankle injuries by as much as 75%!
Steppie in connection with rehabilitation:
The best way to rehabilitate your muscles and joints after ankle, knee or hip injuries is to use a balance board. However, using a standard ball balance board is for most people - at least to begin with - too difficult. Steppie, on the other hand, is much easier to use, and as you become more practiced, you can increase training by standing on one leg at a time or turning the board over and seesawing in the opposite direction.
Stylish & Practical Design:
Steppie balance board features a simple yet stylish design that makes it suitable for any home or office environment. It features a neutral - black & grey colour scheme which easily blends in any interior.
