\u201cThe ability to raise my feet allows me to reduce pressure on my glutes and legs in a reclined position as I’m relaxing. The footrest\u2019s extra width also encourages me to move my legs more frequently and shift into varying postures, promoting stress relief from one tissue to another while seated for prolonged periods.\u201d
