I bought a kneeling chair since my obtorator still does not allow me to sit for more than 5 min. It is very helpful. Just be very careful to relax all your muscles while you kneel so it doesn't stir things up.
Has anyone bought the HARA chair?

is it this one http://www.harachairusa.com/ ?
I think indeed this must be helpful as the pressure gets on the outside of your pelvis .
I always use a sportcar chair that is a bit to small for me
It has a bit the same effect I think

Bicyclist / IT guy / sitting allot
Then pain -- but only when sitting--
took me 3 years - nerve blocks etc to find out that it really was the surface of a chair that could help.. Now . After 5 years doing well -- on a special chair - special recumbent bike- special car - but ..almost without pain !!

PNE started 2003 following Vaginal Hysterectomy, pelvic floor repair and right oophorectomy; eventually after many tests had BilateralTG surgery Nantes 2004; following this tried many other treatments including 7 day epidural, ketamin infusions to no avail; Trialed and was implanted with a Neurostimulator in 2007- Dr Van Buyten Belgium, this has enabled me to manage my pain much better.

Re: Kneeling chair
This chair looks incredible. Has anyone had any experience with it?
Thanks!
Thanks!
Re: Kneeling chair
My PT told me today that kneeling is not a good fix for the pain. She said the pudendal nerve needs to learn to stretch with walking, climbing stairs and sitting. She said that the pudendal nerve needs to learn to slide between the muscles and if I don't force it to move it will heal too tight and won't slide properly. Do what you think is best, just be aware that I'm looking for things to stop the pain and they may not always be the best answer.
Also, this kneeling chair is on this site so you may want to talk to your doc. or PT about it before you get it to be sure is is healthy for you.

Re: Kneeling chair
I found kneeling chairs by accident--my brother had one, and I tried it on a lark during a really bad flare. I was able to sit for hours on end! I wonder if that just made things worse, though, ultimately.
I am avoiding all chairs, currently. I am wondering if avoiding all sitting will eventually lead to recovery.

Re: Kneeling chair
Might depend on what caused the problem in the first place. Theoretically it seems that if your onset of symptoms is associated with sitting too much you might have to avoid sitting indefinitely but if there is another cause maybe the nerve will heal and you will be able to sit again. I guess it would be hard to predict.neopeius wrote:

PNE since 2002. Started from weightlifting. PNE surgery from Dr. Bautrant, Oct 2004. Pain now is usually a 0 and I can sit for hours on certain chairs. No longer take medication for PNE. Can work full time and do "The Firm" exercise program. 99% cured from PGAD. PNE surgery was right for me but it might not be for you. Do your research.
