ergonomic chair

Posture-friendly seat

An ergonomic chair is an office or desk chair designed to support the body in ways that reduce strain and discomfort during prolonged sitting.

Such chairs typically feature adjustable components—seat height, armrests, lumbar support, and recline angle—that allow users to customize the fit to their bodies.

My back stopped hurting after I switched to an ergonomic chair.

The term sometimes gets applied loosely to any chair marketed as comfortable for work.
