Using this for ADHD wiggles and for preventing lower back and hip lock up

Using this for ADHD wiggles and for preventing lower back and hip lock up
So I'll start off by saying that I ordered two. Both came in a satisfactory amount of time and in good condition. They come with inflation needles. Sometimes when a thing with air in it travels in differing weather temperatures, it can deflate a little - or appear that way, at least. I'm grateful for the needles so I don't have to look for one in the future. That was thoughtful.Now for what I needed them for:I have ADHD. I wiggle ALOT. I am often uncomfortable sitting down for long periods of time. Alas, a lot of my hobbies and some of my sparse income relies on sitting. I'm an artist, a reader, a gamer, sometimes writer, etc. If I somehow am able focus to sit still for a long period of time, I will ignore aching limbs and wind up in a lot of pain when I finally get up. I get crazy muscle tension from any amount of stress, so being able to wiggle my hips in my seat is a BOON!I suspect my son also has ADHD. His limbs go everywhere. Knocking over stuff, precariously tipping his seat (I know most kids do this, but this kid is excessive, much like me). The wiggle seat allows him to do smaller movements, which I try to encourage instead of saying "sit still", and therefore preventing potential catastrophes from occurring - like bonked nuggets and broken action figure models he worked so hard on making.It's almost like sitting on an exercise ball. I like it. All the thumbs up.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this cushion, but I began noticing how much I was slouching in my office chair and how badly my back hurt much of the time and decided to give this a try. I am pleasantly surprised by how comfortable this makes my chair and how straight I sit up now with little effort. It's too soon, but I do think my core is getting stronger. And my back is much less painful. For those who are wondering (as I was), the cushion comes inflated and the amount of air seems about right. It's a bargain for the price.

4.0 out of 5 stars It’s all right
Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2024
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
It’s all right I got it from my desk at work because something that I had ordered was taking forever. I don’t know what was going on with that. But I ended up sending that back and keeping this anyways. I think it’s probably worth about seven dollars not $14 and, I don’t notice any difference in my posture or my core muscles or anything like that and I use it every day at work. I also use their brand of yoga block to put my feet on because I am short and I use that so I can set up straight, but I have to set up on my own. It doesn’t help me sit up straight at all. I have to remind myself constantly to sit up straight and I kept it because I thought it would help me with my core a little bit, and it hasn’t.

I did see the picture of the person that showed before and after pictures of her belly and I was like OK let me try and it wasn’t like that for me. She could’ve quite quite quite possibly been doing diet and exercise along with it but I eat good and I work out so I know I didn’t notice a difference. The only time I noticed the difference was when I started working out obviously.🙄

What I recommend this as a posture corrector absolutely not. I’m not really sure what this is good for. I would take a picture of it but it looks exactly like a picture it’s in my work desk, so but it looks exactly like the picture.

3.0 out of 5 stars Try it before you knock it.
Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2018
Color: BlackVerified Purchase
Gaima has AWFUL practices. Let's start with the fact that I received a clearly used product that you are supposed to sit on. Bottom is worn, the inflation opening is scratched around the surface and the product arrived pretty heavily deflated. It seems pretty clear that somebody got the product, used it, didn't like it and returned it and Gaima then sent it to me. Extremely poor form.

So, my product looks nothing like the picture because it arrive so deflated I could touch the top to the bottom. I pulled out my foot pump, attached the needle (which only by sheer persistence worked because I had to keep putting it back in the hose) and performed CPR on the pump for about 20 minutes. There must be another dimension houses within the ball because air was going out of the pump, it wasn't leaking out of the ball or the hose and the ball didn't inflate one bit. I chalked it up to being defective and tosses it back in the box with the idea in mind of returning it.

Well, I bought the ball as part of a total-body physical therapy measure to both help me regain strength after my last surgery and to help me recover from my next surgery. I was farting around with some resistance bands I had and trying different exercises from different angles and I was having a rough time getting full range of motion on some quad and hip exercises because my legs were just a bit too long. I broke out the ball, plopped in on the chair and sat down. I'm not very heavy and I'm not very tall- 5'9" and 170 pounds. When I sat on the ball the air pressure caused by my weight caused it to raise in height several inches and straightened my back, extended my stomach and raised my knees so my thighs were parallel to the ground and my feet were flat. I instantly felt sore in my lower back and lower abdomen. It was working EXACTLY as it was supposed to.

Curious, I then took it to my office chair, where I couldn't touch my heels to the ground unless I sat on the very front of the seat (which then causes me to slouch as my back rounds out to accommodate the downward slope of the seat) and puts pressure on my lower thighs (which hurts my knees because it causes my heels to hang). I plopped the ball down in my chair and sat on it. Again- spine goes straight, knees come up, thighs parallel to the ground, feet flat on the floor. Soreness in my lower back and lower core.

Gaima's business practices aside, this thing works PERFECTLY. Give it an honest shot. I can't speak to how well it will work for much taller or shorter or much heavier people, but the ball I got is exactly the dimension I needed. Don't toss it before trying it, even if it looks lousy when you get it.

Three stars because it works. Minus one for the condition it came in and the non-function of the inflation aspect and minus one for the fact Gaima clearly sent me a ball someone returned.

I believe this has improved my posture by making me sit up straight and not slouch. I have back and neck issues, and find that I am not as sore as I used to be, and I believe it's because I have to sit straight up, which gives me better balance. I would highly recommend trying this item. I would order it again.
