Abstract:
A method and a tilting device for exercising a spinal column of a seated user. The method may include activating a tilting device included in a controllable chair to provide at least one exercise scheme that includes two or more repeatable tilting movements of a seat of the controllable chair around at least two different axes, a number of repetitions for each tilting movement, speed and amplitude of each tilting movement and causing repeatable movements to the pelvis of the seated user as to stimulate movements of all the vertebrae throughout the spinal column of the seated user. The continuous repeatable seat movements may cause the user's spinal column to move between the body's natural vertical midline into a convex shape.

Claim (Index 1):
A method of exercising a spinal column of a seated user comprising:\n activating a controllable chair to provide at least one exercise scheme, wherein each exercise scheme comprises: two or more repeatable tilting movements of a seat of the controllable chair around at least two different axes, a number of repetitions for each tilting movement, speed and amplitude of each tilting movement; and causing repeatable movements to the pelvis of the seated user as to stimulate movements of all the vertebrae throughout the spinal column of the seated user, wherein the continuous repeatable seat movements cause the user's spinal column to move between the body's natural vertical midline into a convex shape such that each vertebra moves relatively to the next vertebra therefore, the two spine endpoint vertebrae remain stationary in their original natural vertical position, the entire spinal column changes into a convex shape based on these two endpoints, wherein the controllable chair comprises:\n a fixed portion, connectable to a base of a chair; \n a movable portion connectable to a seat of the chair; \n a joint; positioned between the fixed portion and the movable portion configured to allow relative movement of movable portion with respect to fixed portion around the at least two axes; \n at least two actuators, each of the actuators connected at one end to the fixed portion and at another end to the movable portion; \n wherein the actuators are located in an angle with respect to each other about the joint and configured to allow tilting of the movable portion with respect to the fixed portion, around at least two different axes; and \n a programmable controller \n wherein the programmable controller is configured to: receive and execute the exercise scheme; to modify programmable variables; communicate with the user and with the internet; control and manage the actuators.
