You do not need a backrest to get the benefits of a saddle seat. However, leaning into a backrest can be helpful to control the seat as you move around your workspace. The backrest can also be used as a stretch support i.e. handy to occasionally lean into and stretch when sitting for long periods.

Once you have set the saddle seat to the correct height - so that your spine is in a natural "S" curve - simply adjust the backrest so that it fits snug into your spines natural lumbar curve. This is very different to a backrest support on a traditional office chair where generally your spine is in a "C" curve and the lumbar support is used to force the spine into the more natural "S" curve.

AC and DC Actuators

A.C. Actuator used in Alevo Pro-Lift tables

When you are comparing electric power driven treatment tables an important factor is the drive system, i.e. the actuator that lifts the table, or as commonly referred to as the table motor. There are two basic types of motors:

(1) Powered direct current (D.C.), such D.C. power supplies or an AC-to-DC power converter; and

(2) Powered by alternating current (A.C.), typically the power grid 240 Volts.

The major benefit of an A.C. motor over a D.C. motors is its lifting speed and how it performs under load i.e. with a patient on the table. An A.C. motor’s speed (Pro-Lift models) is constant regardless of the weight on the table; whereas the more weight that is on a table driven by a DC motor the slower it lifts.

(1) The Value-Lift DC Actuator.

• Uses a smaller D.C. 6,000n actuator.
• Made in the PRC.
• Motor’s speed reduces when weight is on the table.
• Lifts 12mm per second, i.e. or a height adjustment of 48.1cm in 40 seconds, with a 150kg load.
• 2-year motor and control box warranty.
• Controlled by an electric footswitch; made in the PRC.
• An ideal table for spa and beauty and remedial and relaxation massage.

(2) The Pro-Lift AC Actuator

• Uses a larger more powerful A.C. 10,000n actuator - almost twice as powerful.
• Made in Germany.
• Motor’s speed is constant regardless of the weight on the table.
• Lifts 37mm per second, i.e. a height adjustment of 48.1cm in just 13 seconds, with a 150kg load.
• 3-year motor (with built-in control box) warranty.
• Controlled by a pneumatic stainless steel footswitch; made in Germany.
• Waste less time waiting for table movements with less interruptions to the treatment flow.
• An ideal table for sports clubs, gyms, educational institutions, day spas and international hotels or the busiest professional sports and remedial massage practitioners.
