Exploring the Herman Miller Embody Headrest by OfficeLogixShop Review and Installation
As we all comfortably navigate the modern work from home reality one question remains entirely universal. Is your chair truly comfortable. After all a heavy duty office chair is not just a simple seat. It is an absolutely essential component of your overall work performance and physical health. But what about the Embody chair a highly renowned premium offering from Herman Miller. Does it come with a headrest. The factory answer is no it does not. However with the highly anticipated introduction of the Herman Miller Embody Headrest by OfficeLogixShop the corporate seating game has changed significantly.

It is a premium aftermarket addition meaning you can indeed successfully add a custom headrest to a Herman Miller chair.

Package Contents
Congratulations on officially receiving your premium Embody Chair Headrest by OfficeLogixShop. Let us dive right in and carefully open up this package that has likely arrived at your doorstep via shipping and completely set you up for a whole new level of elite comfort.
The absolute first thing you will clearly see as you smoothly open the box is a highly detailed set of instructions spanning two pages.
Not a huge fan of reading written instructions. No problem at all because there is a highly convenient QR code located right on the second page that will immediately take you to the Embody Headrest Installation Guide video which is hopefully just as helpful as this written walkthrough we are sharing with you right now. Put these paper instructions safely aside because you might actually need them later if you ever plan on fully removing and reinstalling the headrest.
As we completely delve further into the shipping box you will seamlessly uncover some vital key parts. First off you will easily find the foam sleeved top of the headrest which is the absolute most vital and deeply comfortable part of this whole premium setup.
Alongside it is a heavy duty spine component also completely covered in a secure protective sleeve. This premium spine features the highly innovative tool less screws and bolts we are especially incredibly proud of meaning you will absolutely not be needing any annoying Allen keys or complex tools to put this seamlessly together.
Do not be alarmed at all if you happen to find the spine completely missing a metal gear on its inside left face because it might have simply slipped off during transit and ended up safely in the bottom of the bag. If that is exactly the case a highly gentle shake of the plastic bag should immediately bring it out. Simply align it perfectly and smoothly slot it right back into the spine frame. It is absolutely not glued into place so it is an incredibly easy one second physical fix.
There is also a highly useful protective film thoughtfully included in the package for the entire installation process to completely ensure you absolutely do not scratch the delicate back of the spine frame.
And here is a highly helpful pro tip for you. As you gently remove the setup directly from the bag you might easily find the main bolt completely loose. If it is not immediately physically visible simply sift through the plastic bag and you will definitely find it because it is absolutely crucial for perfectly maintaining the tension bolt. And finally the beautiful cherry on top or in this specific case the aesthetic cover that securely goes on top of it all.
Tool Less Installation
Let us completely move these other parts aside and happily start with the plastic protective film. Do not worry because it is absolutely not a sticky decal so there is absolutely no chance of a grimy residue mess being left on your chair spine. Smoothly wrap this protective film around right below the Herman Miller logo exactly where the antler stops. Start directly from the back and wrap it highly tightly. It absolutely does not need to be perfect as this is a strictly temporary protective film you can easily discard post installation.
With the protective film securely in place it is finally time to successfully install the main spine. Notice the small rubber hook right there. That is our direct engineering response to amazing community feedback concerned about any potential friction at the chair top. The beautifully color matched silicone hook is incredibly soft highly easy to clean extremely durable and will absolutely not physically affect your premium ergonomic desk chair.
Next completely remove the bolt securely holding the vertical back stopper in place. This highly important little piece keeps your spine from dangerously sliding up and down. Once it is completely out gently push the two lower prongs at the absolute bottom perfectly outwards and smoothly slide down the stopper. It is incredibly simple.
Let us smoothly hook the top part now. Flawlessly align it completely centered directly with the Herman Miller logo and gently loop the fabric tag straight through our custom tag and logo hole which is yet another brilliant design feature we are incredibly proud of completely thanks to your massive community feedback.
Push the two bottom plastic prongs completely outwards and firmly push the whole spine mechanism right in. It will audibly click safely into place hence the absolute need for the temporary protective film.
Secure the entire spine completely with the vertical stopper component. Here is a highly useful pro tip for you. Ensure the stopper physically faces perfectly outwards pointing directly towards the back. Apply a highly gentle downward pressure directly on the spine and smoothly slip the stopper right behind the antler. Listen closely for two distinct clicks with one on each side. Firmly hold on to the stopper completely align its holes with the spine holes and perfectly thread the main bolt straight through.
Tighten the bolt completely until it physically stops turning. Your heavy duty spine is absolutely not going anywhere now.
Next up is our absolute favorite part of the process which is the main cushion. You will definitely need two specific components here including the soft cushion part and the mechanical knob rod. Beautifully align the cushion directly over the spine and flawlessly align this specific part with the vertical slot on the headrest cushion right side when the heavy duty office chair faces away from you. Secure it flawlessly with the metal rod.
Now let us perfectly set up the headrest tension and exact tilt angle. Flawlessly align the four small notches directly on the metal gear with the headrest four identical notches and smoothly push it completely through the metal rod.
Make absolutely sure the metal nut is perfectly on the cap end to completely secure the rod and easily adjust your desired tension.
Align the cap notches perfectly wiggle it gently right in and actively start tightening it until you clearly feel some physical resistance.
And there you completely have it. Your highly advanced headrest is fully assembled and perfectly ready for your daily posture correction adjustments. Deeply enjoy the absolute comfort.
Fine Tune Adjustment
Now that your premium headrest is completely fully assembled it is exactly time to fine tune it completely to your precise liking. First off you will absolutely want to stop the headrest from annoyingly flopping around. Loosen it right up perfectly align it so it is beautifully vertically aligned with the heavy duty chair backrest and completely tighten it into place.
Next smoothly adjust the physical pivot part which is the highly mobile upper component and perfectly set it to your completely expected vertical height.
Once that is completely done definitely give it a highly rigorous test. Sit right down lean completely back and actively see how it really feels. You might easily find you explicitly need to make a few more minor adjustments. Perhaps it physically needs to be a very little higher a highly little lower or securely angled totally differently. And please remember your absolutely ideal physical position might constantly change completely based on exactly what you are actively doing. If you are intensely working you might deeply prefer a much more upright physical posture while for serious PC gaming epic movie watching or simply kicking completely back during a long corporate meeting a totally different tilt angle could easily be vastly more comfortable.
That is the absolute engineering beauty of this custom headrest. It dynamically adjusts completely to you and absolutely not the other way around. So please perfectly feel free to continually tweak the smooth pivot mechanism while you are actively sitting right down. Simply loosen the side knobs to flawlessly adjust the vertical height and when it absolutely feels totally just right completely lock it safely into place with the exact same secure knobs.
