An ergonomic chair on its own is not the solution. The ergonomic chair will be useful if you know to convert the entire workstation in an tailor-made ergonomic manner. The dynamics of the table, the alignment and position of your monitor and the accessories all play a role in creating an ergonomic workstation environment.

There are lots of options available for ergonomic chair for use at home..
I would suggest to buy a standard company chair.
It would be better if you try it first to know the quality of chair..
Next Steps
Visit a nearby store.. Check for yourself and buy it.
