The Bambach® Story
Mary Gale, an Australian Occupational Therapist and passionate horsewoman, noticed that patients who could not sit on a chair unaided, were able to sit on on a saddle on horseback without needing any help. This observation started her on a career that has helped thousands and, in many cases, transformed people’s lives. Her extensive research proved that sitting on a horse is very natural and back-friendly, allowing the spine to maintain its natural “S” shape. Ultimately, her results led to the development and production of the Bambach Saddle Seat.

“70 % of all dentists suffer regularly from pain in their back, neck or shoulders.” (H. Skovsgaard, DK). The Bambach Saddle Seat is used by many dentists across the world. The results of using the Bambach Saddle Seat are often dramatic: “My back problems have really got better since I purchased the Bambach Saddle Seat. I had been on the brink of dropping the drill as my back pain was so severe. I owe it to your saddle seat that I am now pain-free!”
Given the benefits of the Bambach Saddle Seat, we believe that they should be used far more widely – at home as well as in a wide variety of work, educational and healthcare environments. There is no doubt that the problem of back pain has reached a level that was unimaginable just a few years ago. Back pain is amongst the most common medical conditions. A US study has revealed that nearly 50 % of 18 to 55 year-olds suffer from backache and 25 % suffer from severe back pain. Moreover, back pain is one of the most common causes of time off work. Whether you suffer from balance problems, back pain, or simply want to protect your back from the risk of future problems, a Bambach Saddle Seat could change your life.
Ideal Ergonomic Posture
on the Bambach® Saddle Seat
An ideal posture when sitting would allow the pelvis to remain in a neutral position to act as a foundation for the spine to maintain ints natural “S” shape and keep the upper body in balance. Thighs would remain in their resting position at a 45° angle to the upper body with feet flat on the floor and only carrying the weight of the leg. After just a few days of sitting in ergonomically correct posture, long-term neck and shoulder pain may be considerably improved, or even disappear completely. Improved posture not only has a positive effect on your health, but has also been proven to increase your productivity and the quality of your work. With its patented design, only the Bambach Saddle Seat optimally supports the pelvis allowing the spine to assume its natural “S”-posture. As a result, an incorrect posture is replaced with a natural, healthy posture thus providing all of the requirements for an optimal ergonomic seating position, significantly reducing intervertebral disc pressure. Musculoskeletal and spinal problems which may be helped by the Bambach Saddle seat include low back pain, sciatica, scoliosis and osteoarthritis of the hip. Please contact us for more information.
