The zero gravity position means that your legs are above your heart, which is the position that doctors recommend as the healthiest way to sit.
Zero gravity was developed by NASA researchers looking for a way to reduce bodily stress suffered by astronauts during shuttle mission takeoffs.
When sitting, a person normally has about 150% of their total body weight of pressure on their lower back, but when reclined in a BackSaver Zero Gravityᄄ Recliner, there is 0% of body weight of pressure on the lower back. Hence the pressure is reduced to zero. When there is less pressure there is generally less pain since the body will be in a better position to heal itself.
