Tilt in space (TIS) is a particular type of motion a chair has when it is reclined.  A tilt in space motion angles the seat of the chair backwards with the backrest in a fixed angle and reduces the amount of strain placed on the lower back.  The motion maintains the support on your back by keeping the chair in an L shape as you recline. When the chair reclines on normal chairs it can put strain on the lower back as the seat stays horizontal. This action is perfect if you are required to elevate your legs above your heart or just to relax and get your legs up whilst resting or watching TV.
