In one embodiment, the controller may be a control panel, a remote control, or a mobile communication device (such as a smart phone, tablet computer, and notebook computer), and the like.

Generally speaking, when the user U sits on the existing chair, the gravitational force is directly exerted on the buttocks of the user U, so the buttocks of the user U are the application point of the gravitational force; The spine can be compressed under the action of gravity. On the contrary, as shown in FIG. 2 , when the human body suspension concept chair 1 is used, the feet of the user U are on the ground and the buttocks of the user U are suspended on the ground. In this way, the force point of the gravitational force is transferred from the user U's buttocks to the two sides of the upper half of the user U's expelling body, so that the gravitational force is actually exerted on the user U's expelling body. The two sides of the armpit and the back are not the buttocks of the user U; among them, the support weight ratio of the two side armpits of the user U is higher. Therefore, the spine of the user U can be naturally stretched under the action of gravity, thus releasing the pressure between the intervertebral discs of the spine, and at the same time achieving the effect of correcting scoliosis. Therefore, after using the human body suspension concept chair 1 for a period of time, the health of the user U can be significantly improved.

On the other hand, since the human body suspension concept chair 1 can be used directly in the user U's home, it can be effectively integrated into the user U's daily life, so that the human body suspension concept chair 1 can achieve the best correction effect. In addition, the human body suspension concept chair 1 can support the torso of the user U through the left support portion 141 and the right support portion 142 , so that the user U can maintain the sitting posture even though the buttocks are suspended, which is more ergonomic and usable Therefore, the user U can ride on the human body suspension concept chair 1 comfortably.
