Benefits

“A feeling of being airborne, gently nested, back supported and totally relaxed, owing to a natural and healthy sitting position.”

The secret of the hammock CLOUD135?

An ergonomic design giving a 135 degrees angle upper body-thighs sitting position which is proven by Researchers to be healthy and relaxing for the spine!

The hammock CLOUD135:

  • Follow the shape of your body.
  • Gently raise your torso.
  • Supports your lower back.
  • Relaxes your spine.
  • Keeps your legs in a relaxed position.
  • Provides support where needed.
  • Gives incomparable comfort with healthy posture.

For a reading position (+ 135 °), simply increase the opening distance between the two hammock rings within the recommended parameters. This is easily done when the hammock is hung to chains using carabiners or “S” hooks.

Note: Cloud Solo Model Specific Hanging Parameters are indicated in the Technical Specifications section of the Cloud Solo Page.

Having a nap, reading a book or cuddling together with a loved one are very different activities that require different positions.

The CLOUD135's sitting position is adjustable in a very simple way: one needs to increase or decrease the hanging distance between the two rings of the hammock. This is easily done when the hammock is hung to chains using carabiners or “S” hooks.

For a more upright position: Fasten the carabiner higher up on the chain and the back of the hammock rises.
For a more reclining position: Fasten the carabiner lower on the chain and the back of the hammock lowers.

It is as simple as that!

A word from Andreas, Designer of the product

Hammocks are often seen as symbol of summer, leisure, relaxation and the good life. Unfortunately, the hammocks I tried over the years during my numerous journeys in the tropics didn’t live up to my expectations. Their round shape is bad for the spine, the legs are overstretched and knees are forced into an unnatural position.

While designing the hammock CLOUD135, I was in search of a healthy sitting position that could help prevent or even alleviate back pain.

What is interesting is that while my work was intuitive, it is nevertheless validated by the findings of researchers. Sitting in 135 degrees upper body-thighs position is proven to be healthy as well as the most relaxing posture for the spine. And one gets this position +/- in a hammock CLOUD135, depending on the hanging distance. (See Installation page)! But there is more to the hammock comfort than a 135 degree position: support given to the knees, the back and the neck also plays a major part in the design success.

If you want to know more about the study that demonstrate the benefits of sitting in a 135 degrees upper body-thighs position, please read below and/or follow the link to the Press Release published by the Radiological Society of North-America (RSNA). More information on the subject is generally available on internet.
