Executive Chairs — Expert Answer
What is a neck roll on an executive chair and who benefits from it?
A neck roll is a small cylindrical cushion at the top of the chair's backrest, providing support for the lower back of the head or the cervical spine. It's different from a full headrest and is most common on traditional-style executive chairs. Users with chronic neck stiffness or those who frequently recline and rest their head backward can benefit from a neck roll. However, some users find neck rolls push the head forward rather than supporting it naturally, depending on how the chair is used. If you recline frequently and want something to rest your head on, a proper adjustable headrest is ergonomically superior to a neck roll.
