A footrest is a tool that we consider essential to every desk style. This is an absolute game-changer for your comfort and overall well-being, whether you sit, stand, or combine the two throughout the day. There are various types of footrests available at Mattress Offers, find some information below to help you buy the best footrest to suit your style. 

Should I get a chair with a footrest?

It is more convenient to use an ergonomic chair than a traditional office chair, which is used only to sit at a desk. It offers many benefits to a user, including providing all the right kinds of support and relieving pressure points on the body. By providing additional support, the ergonomic chair eliminates fatigue and physical pain in employees, thereby increasing their productivity. A footrest attachment for an office chair is also a popular way to alleviate lower body stress since the unique features of ergonomic chairs make them different from the rest and extremely comfortable. In many modern chairs, there is a chair leg rest attachment, but sadly, many ergonomic chairs do not have it. Adjustable footrests on an ergonomic chair can also be attached as a separate accessory. 

Where do you put a footstool?

Ancient Egypt was the first place where footstools were introduced, where they were used to help people get onto chairs. Rather than having people perch high off the ground, the stool would allow them to rest their legs while they hung. A footstool is used today in a similar fashion. Therefore, they are also referred to as footrests since they are generally used to put one's feet up. The most common place to use them is to relax in an armchair or on the sofa. So the ideal place for a footstool is usually in the hallway or living space. Or in your bedroom, if you tend to sit on your armchair there. 

What are some benefits of using Footrests?

  • Lift your feet and legs to a comfortable, healthy height to prevent computer-work and posture-related RSIs.
  • Reduce back pain by facilitating more ergonomic postural angles through your entire body
  • Be more active at the desk
  • Keep static muscles from causing numbness, fatigue, stiffness, and aches by moving more frequently
  • Increase circulation 
  • Enhance energy levels 
  • Increase focus – especially if you use an active footrest

What are Some Best Types of Footrests?

You won’t even notice that your feet or legs move underneath the desk if you choose one of the products on the market that are silent and well-designed.  Different footrests will be surfaced with different materials – some will have a bumpy surface for massaging your feet and encouraging blood circulation which is commonly named a pouf. Pouffe is widely used nowadays because of their comfort level and reliability for long time use. Two types of foot cushions exist: plush microfiber and micro beaded fabric with anti-slip treading. Many hard footrests have a similar industrial texture to sandpaper.
