For many years, footrests have been advertised as solutions for “shorter individuals” who work behind a desk. Although a footrest does provide a solid or dynamic higher platform on which individuals can rest their feet, it can be equally beneficial to taller individuals who require dynamic movement or improved circulation while seated.
In summary, my advice would be:
Maximise your chair’s lumbar support and reduce back pain by investing in an ergonomic footrest.
