U.S. Patent Sits Well for Health Chair

A unique seating system earned a patent for the HealthChair. Inventor Gary Sanchez, a dentist, says he wants to change the way people sit.

Albuquerque, NM (PRWEB) July 29, 2006 -- Gary Sanchez, a local dentist and inventor and Garrex LLC, was granted a United States patent for the HealthChair in May 2006.

“The patent documents and protects the very unique HealthChair features so that it can now be more aggressively marketed throughout the world,” explained Deborah Peacock of Peacock Myers PC. Peacock spearheaded the patent process. “We’ve actually developed a patent portfolio for the HealthChair because it’s one of the best products we’ve ever seen and we have a number of other patents pending for the HealthChair’s various unique components.”

The HealthChair patent covers three specifics that allow the chair to adjust to body size, posture support and frequent user repositioning. “We wanted to change the way people sit -- we no longer feel the user should have to conform to a preformed chair -- the chair should conform itself to the user and that is the premise behind the HealthChair.,” Sanchez explained. “We believe if you sit right -- you’ll feel good!”

The HealthChair, manufactured in High Point, North Carolina, comes in various models and fabrics depending on use. For example, special paints and fabrics that can be disinfected easily are used to make chairs for health care professionals. Prices range from $750 to $1,550, depending on the model and features selected.

The HealthChair® is a fully adjustable, ergonomic chair that offers patented independently adjustable back supports. The active seating system of the HealthChair provides three specific support elements making it particularly comfortable for those sitting for long periods of time. Sit right -- feel good with the HealthChair. For more information, visit the Garrex web site at www.thehealthchair.com.
