The two persons who benefit from the baby rocking chair are the mother as well as the child. There are also two kinds of rocking chairs - one is meant for the mother to rock baby on her lap and the other for the older child to play the part of the parent and rhythmically rock. As the world spins on its orbit, as the waves rock to and fro there is a deep urge in man to rock and roll for peace and calm. The rocking chair represents the most endearing phase of life - our childhood.
Basically the rocking chair has two curved bands of wood or rockers fixed to the bottom of the chair. It contacts the chair with the floor only on two points that allows the occupant of the seat to rock back and forth with the minimum of effort. It is a comfortable chair to sit on even without the push factor - it automatically adjusts with the centre of gravity of the sitter for ergonomic advantage. It relieves stress. Built up on this basic structure are many types of rocking chairs having springs and gliders. Greek and Roman chairs influenced the neo-classical designs. One of the latest Norwegian models can take on four positions.
