Hammock foot rest

1 Comment

Feel a vacation under your feet. Sitting at the desk all day gives you swollen legs. You somehow start feeling tired and get distracted although you are just sitting down.

If you are annoyed by that situation, you might want to try Thanko's new hammock-style foot rest. Simply hook it on the desk and it's ready to use. Place your feet on it and it will make your feet relaxed while you do desk work.

By swinging your legs once in a while, you can add more relaxation effect.

Price: ¥1,580

This goes against all the advice I've read to the effect that both feet should stay planted on the floor to provide better support to the hips and lower back. Or more recent material that claims prolonged sitting is bad for you and that you should work standing up. I'm not saying Thanko's claims are spurious, but I'd be curious to see the results of a scientifically performed study.
