We are pleased to announce a major evolution: OSTEOSEAT is now MOVEOSEAT®. This name change marks a new chapter in the international development of our dynamic ergonomic seat, designed to combat the harmful effects of sedentary lifestyles and sustainably improve postural health.
Behind this innovation is the French company Satisform, founded by Christophe BENSOUSSAN, a recognized expert in functional rehabilitation, biomechanics, and physical performance. A former fitness instructor in the French Air Force and current reservist in the Troupes de Marine, he has devoted his experience to improving back health, mobility, and independence.
MOVEOSEAT is derived from the Latin “Moveo”, meaning “I move”. Paired with the word “Seat”, it fully expresses our mission: to get the body moving—even while seated. This change makes our concept more accessible internationally and strengthens our identity as an innovative ergonomic solution for workplaces, healthcare settings, and prevention programs.
Unlike traditional chairs, MOVEOSEAT® features a patented mechanism that enables a natural, continuous movement of the pelvis, inspired by the motor pattern of walking. This lemniscate motion (figure-eight shaped) gently stimulates deep postural muscles, especially the multifidus, pelvic, psoas, and transverse abdominal muscles.
Prolonged sitting is now recognized as one of the major health risks of modern life. It leads to:
The World Health Organization (WHO) has even described sedentary behavior as “the new smoking”.
By continuously activating the pelvic area, MOVEOSEAT® helps restore automatic postural engagement, without conscious effort. This gentle stimulation enhances proprioception, encourages a naturally upright posture, relieves joint stress, and boosts alertness.
MOVEOSEAT® is designed and manufactured in France by the Satisform team, an innovative company based in Le Mans. With more than 20 years of experience, Satisform relies on a network of local partners to ensure industrial ethics, material traceability, and top-tier quality.
The seat is built to be upgradeable, repairable, and recyclable, aligned with eco-design principles.
Originally developed for use in functional rehabilitation, the MOVEOSEAT mechanism is derived from the DPA Med® medical device, also invented by Christophe BENSOUSSAN. Today, this technology is used in many healthcare centers, hospitals, retirement homes, and neuro-rehab clinics, and even by elite sports teams such as Real Madrid.
Clinical feedback confirms that this active pelvic mobilization is highly effective in reactivating motor patterns, reducing pain, and restoring autonomous posture.
Whether you’re working from home, in an office, teaching, working in healthcare, or studying, MOVEOSEAT® offers a practical solution to enhance your daily wellbeing.
It is especially recommended for:
For over 20 years, Satisform has been creating science-backed, practical solutions to help prevent loss of mobility, fight chronic pain, and enhance both physical and cognitive performance. The transition from OSTEOSEAT to MOVEOSEATreflects our commitment to greater accessibility, societal impact, and ongoing innovation.
MOVEOSEAT® is more than just a name change. It’s an invitation to rethink how we sit, to reintroduce movement into our daily routines, and to protect our long-term health.
Behind this product is a dedicated team, a French company, a passionate inventor, and a clear vision: to make movement a part of everyday health.
