Description
Description
Feet up, properly supported.
An afternoon in the armchair, a rest on the bed, a film on the couch. Putting your legs up is easier with a pillow made for them.
Lie back with it under your ankles to lift your heels just clear of the mattress, or under your knees for a softly bent position. Sitting down, set it on a footstool and rest your ankles across it.
The memory foam keeps its shape, and the cover zips off and goes in the wash. It measures 55 × 23 × 21 cm.
Simple. Doable. Achievable.
General use items, not prescribed aids. If your surgeon, physiotherapist or occupational therapist has recommended something specific, follow that first.

Who is This For?
This may suit you if:
- You like to put your feet up in the evening, in an armchair or on the couch
- You rest on your back and want your knees or ankles supported
- You'd rather not stack bed pillows that squash flat or slide apart
- Your physiotherapist or surgical team has suggested raising or supporting your legs
- You're setting up a comfortable spot at home for yourself or a parent
If you've been given positioning instructions after surgery, follow your surgical team's advice first.

Why we like this
Most people put their feet up on a stack of bed pillows. It works, until they squash flat or slide apart.This one is made for the job. Each leg gets its own groove, and the foam keeps its shape whether you're on the bed or the couch.
The physio behind the store
I built this store because I was already recommending this equipment in sessions every day. As a mobile physio working in people's homes, I know what actually fits a real living room, a real bedroom, a real kitchen and what older adults will actually use.
Everything here has been in my kit bag, used with real clients, and chosen because it works in the home environment, not just in a clinic.

Where you put it changes how it feels. A few ways to use it well:
-
Under the ankles, lying flat. Your heels rest just clear of the mattress.
-
Under the knees, lying flat. If you've had a knee replacement, check with your surgical team first.
-
Feet up in a chair. Set it on a footstool and rest your ankles across it.
General use items, not prescribed aids. If your surgeon, physiotherapist or occupational therapist has recommended something specific, follow that first.
Key features & benefits
What makes us different
Everything on this store is something we actually use. It's in our kit bag. We bring it into real sessions with real clients, week after week. If it's here, it's because we've tried it, trusted it, and seen how people actually use it at home.
We're not trying to sell you everything. The range is curated for older adults building strength and independence at home, and simplicity is the whole point. You don't need a home gym. You don't need to be an expert.
As a mobile physio practice, we can only reach so many people in person. This store is how we share what works with everyone else.
Movement keeps you going
The evidence is clear: it is never too late to start. A few minutes of movement most days is a good place to start. You don't need a gym, a trainer, or a complicated programme. You need simple equipment that works at home and a reason to pick it up.
Three things regular movement may help maintain
-
Muscle StrengthWe naturally lose muscle mass as we age. Resistance exercise is one of the most effective tools for slowing that process — at any age.
-
Balance & StabilityBalance is a skill, and it responds to regular practice.
-
Independence at HomePeople over 65 benefit more from adequate fitness than any other age group — to maintain independence, recover from illness, and reduce disease risk.
