Do I need a headrest on an ergonomic chair?

A headrest is beneficial for users who regularly work in a reclined position (100°–120°), experience neck fatigue during extended screen work, or frequently take calls or read in a reclined posture. The headrest supports the cervical spine (approximately 10–12 lbs of head weight) so neck muscles can relax. Headrests are less necessary for users who work mostly upright. Adjustability in height and angle is essential — a fixed headrest at the wrong position pushes the head forward and creates additional tension.
