“My work requires me to sit at the computer for long periods. Despite a good office chair and regular breaks, my legs often started feeling numb during the course of the day.

"Fortunately, my workstation was assessed recently. After my chair had been adjusted to the right height for my desk, my feet did not touch the floor. This created pressure under my thighs which, in the course of the day, brought about the discomfort in my legs.

"To prevent this, an ergonomic footrest was recommended. In our organisation, both function and design are highly regarded.”

This is such a common problem in many workplace environments but often little is known or done about it. If your feet are not flat on the floor when you are seated this can lead to real problems with your legs and back and there is such a quick solution. A footrest is such a simple and efficient solution to, what can be, quite a serious problem. There are several possibilities, a stand-alone footrest on the ground or a foot ring or footboard fixed on a chair.
