Benefits of Desk Footrests

Ergonomic Support for the Body

Many people spend very long hours sitting at their desks which can cause ergonomic issues including discomfort and poor posture. These problems can be mitigated with an under-desk footrest by giving your lower body the support it needs. When the feet are supported properly, this encourages better posture and spinal alignment to prevent back pain and strain.

Better Circulation

Another important reason for using a footrest for a desk is that sitting for long periods can affect blood circulation. This can cause not only numbness and discomfort but also serious health issues such as deep vein thrombosis. You can improve blood flow by elevating the feet with a footrest. A footrest for a desk reduces the pressure on the legs so blood can flow more freely.

Improved Comfort

These products enable you to shift your weight and easily adjust your sitting position. Footrests accommodate several sitting styles, which means they can work for you whether you like to sit with your feet flat on the floor or with your knees raised slightly. Many have height and angle adjustability features to tweak to every individual’s ergonomic needs.

Stress Reduction

Footrests can also have a very relaxing effect. They reduce tension in the lower back and legs making you feel more at ease while you work. Benefit from increased focus when you work feeling relaxed and comfortable. These products can boost concentration, well-being and productivity remarkably. You won’t need to repeatedly shift around in your chair to achieve comfort or continually adjust your posture, enjoy a strain-free workday and boost in productivity.
