Re: Zeolite rocks- for fumes/odors in the house, car, etc.

I know you've already bought your new chair, but have you ever

considered getting a glider kind of rocker with a gliding ottoman, they

make solid wood ones w/no apholstery, you can add a throw pillow, and I

think it is much less toxic and pretty comfortable, just a thought. Sue.

I thank you for your input Sue.   Sales people get exasperated with me when I

shop for things.

 

I have a bad back, bad hip, broken tailbone, so it has been next to impossible

to find furniture I can sit on without pain or my hip and back being pulled out

of alignment.  In 1990 I bought my own steno chair for work because the chairs

they make these days have a bucket seat to them, not good padding either.  My

legs go numb in them within 10 min.  I hate ergonomic chairs.  I need a

flat/level surface chair, good padding but not too hard, not too soft.  I

usually don't sit on wood chairs even with a cushion, but have on occasion when

there was nothing else-- painful when I get up and I have to watch I don't fall

when I first get out of those type chairs.  I carry a donut cushion and another

type cushion in my pickup everywhere I go.  Some places, I take my redwood

folding chair-- I can't sit on just any folding chair-- no surprise there, huh?

 

My old LZ Boy recliner is 15 yrs old, very comfortable.  I had 4 other

recliners from various stores delivered before that chair but had to send them

all back.  Most recliners put you back, lift your legs up so you are in a

reclining position, but don't work for me-- because your body weight is on your

butt, I need my body weight to be on my low back in the recliner.  Everything

I buy is a challenge to find-- shoes, glasses, clothes because my whole body is

odd.  Then there is MCS, the hardest challenge.

On the Zeolite rocks:  I called 2 locations of Bed Bath & Beyond where I

live.  They do not have the rocks.  I called the eco store where I bought my 4

air cleaners, he has them.  $3.95 for the small pk, and 8.95 for the large.  I

hope to get to the store sometime next week.  He said the rocks are a good idea

for the flame retardants in the LZ.
