It is generally accepted that the legs receive physical activity only after a long walk or intense run. Meanwhile, they get tired if they are in the same position for a long time. For example, at the desktop. It is absurd, but the same office chair that provides living capital becomes the enemy of our body. After all, “sedentary” work negatively affects blood circulation, provokes some diseases of the spine, and in some cases becomes the cause of intestinal diseases. So what to do? Change jobs? Of course no. As the saying goes, you can't change the situation - adapt to it yourself. A special footrest will help with this.
What is this?
The footrest is a support platform that is adjustable to the required height and angle of inclination. Moreover, you can set the desired position without being distracted from work. A special spring allows you to raise the platform, the height of which is fixed under the pressure of the legs. This uncomplicated design provides a comfortable working posture for the whole body, prevents fatiguebody and labor intensity.
When organizing a workplace, a footrest is an essential item. Often in large rooms with a central heating system it is very difficult to achieve a comfortable microclimate. This shortcoming leads to colds among workers, which affects the quality and productivity of labor.
To create comfortable conditions for your feet even in the coldest weather, a footrest with a heating function will help. Until recently, it was presented as a rectangular box with a metal lid, where heat and light were provided by several light bulbs under a transparent mesh. The disadvantage of this design was the inability to adjust the tilt and height. The current model differs from its prototype with a sleeker design, a rubber frame and a retractable leg to provide the desired angle.
Applications
First of all, a footstool is an office necessity. Remember how many times during the working day our legs are looking for the crossbar under the table. Trying to find a comfortable position, we throw our legs over our knees, which interferes with normal blood circulation. The footrest, which is simply a must-buy for people suffering from disorders of the venous-vascular system, is also a useful tool for he althy limbs.
The unique property of this mechanism to relieve muscle tension is used not only at work. Pediatricians recommend using thismechanism to young mothers while breastfeeding. The footrest helps raise the knees, allowing you to take the most comfortable position not only for the body of a nursing mother, but also for an infant.
Also, such platforms are used by artists on the professional stage. The footrest helps keep the body in the correct position while playing the guitar. It, of course, differs in its mechanism from the office stand, but performs the same functions.
More simplified designs are used by older people with painful joints when taking a bath. They help to comfortably sit at the computer at home and are indispensable during the pedicure procedure.
