The master footrest is designed to encourage a comfortable position and proper posture when working at a desk. Physical Therapists and Ergonomists often recommend the feet be slightly raised to lift weight from the thighs and reduce pressure on the lower back.

The Master Footrest can also be used to support the legs of a shorter workstation user. Front and back tilting adjustments achieve the optimal angle and allow the user to rock the platform back and forth to promote movement and increased blood circulation.
