Yes. Seniors can benefit from both seated and standing exercises. For those with balance or mobility concerns, we recommend starting with a partner’s supervision until they are confident and familiar with the chair’s functions.

Wipe all exterior surfaces with a lightly dampened cloth and mild soap. Use a vacuum to remove dust from the spring and lower frame areas to keep the mechanisms functioning smoothly.

a) Tighten All Screws and Bolts
Use the proper tools to firmly tighten every screw and bolt, especially those connecting the base, seat, and backrest. Hardware can loosen over time.

b) Review Assembly Instructions
Check the manual or online setup video to ensure all parts are installed in the correct order and orientation. Misplaced washers or brackets can cause imbalance.

c) Check the Floor Surface

• Move the chair to a level area.
• Use felt pads or stabilizers under uneven legs.
• Avoid thick carpets, which can affect stability during exercise.

d) Inspect for Damage or Missing Parts
Look for cracked casters, bent components, or other damage. Contact customer support for assistance or replacement parts if needed.

e) Exercise Safely
Always place the chair on a flat, non-slip surface and ensure all parts are secure before using it for exercise.

If not used for over a week, we recommend covering the chair with a clean towel or sheet to prevent dust buildup. For households with pets, especially clawed ones, use a sturdy cover to protect the fabric and mechanical parts.

Start by evaluating its comfort as a daily work chair. Next, try out the movement features using the included manual and videos. Some exercises may feel intuitive, while others may take time to adjust to. You don’t need to do every movement—focus on the ones that suit your body best, and give yourself a few weeks to experience the full benefits.
