gypsy sit upon cushion

I never heard of such a thing - had to go to one of the websites listed so I could see what it was. It looks like it would be uncomfortable, but I suppose if I had back pain, I'd try just about anything. Good luck on relieving yours.

A gal at work uses one of the large exercise balls instead of a chair. She says it helps her back, her posture and her core balance.

I work with typical & special needs kids. Yes these cushions are used for ADD and kids with sensory needs. It help ADD kids move 'in' their chairs rather than 'out' of their chairs and helps others organize their sensory needs. OT's love them. I am not sure about helping with the back.

For me though my back does get tired because there's no back support with the ball only.

I had one of those cushions once. Bought it at a quilt show. Couldn't get rid of it soon enough. Personally, they were more trouble keeping them in place than they were worth, plus they did not help the back any at all. Just my opion.
