Please note: There are two groups of patients whom may be unable to elevate their legs due to preexisting conditions. Patients with severe Congestive Heart Failure (CHF) may experience shortness of breath while lying flat, and therefore may be unable to use this product. Secondly, patients with Peripheral Arterial Disease may have pain in their feet while their legs are elevated because the arterial blood has to go "uphill" against gravity

My wife enjoys the leg rest very much. She has a medical pillow that she uses in conjunction with it.
An Investment in Leg Health
Am a Registered Nurse & have been on my feet for many long hours over the course of many years. Feet don't swell but do have progressing age, tired legs and spider veins that predispose early stage venous insufficiency. The best immediate action is to prevent further progression so thrilled to find The Lounge Doctor. Ordered the size M (5'5, 130 lbs) & it's perfect. In fact, it feels so great I decided to complement it w/15-20 mmHg compressions stockings (knee high, open toe.) Thanks to the vascular surgeon who invented these! A welcome relief to a pile of slipping,
falling-off-the-coffeetable pillows! Invention of the year vote from me!
Blissful sleep
I developed neuropathy during chemo treatments and need to keep my legs elevated, especially at night. The Lounge Doctor fits on my bed, under the covers and makes it possible for me to sleep comfortably and keep the legs up. I wake up with far less swelling in the morning and movement is much easier.
Wife loves it!
My wife suffers from multiple health problems; some of which affect accumulation of fluid in her lower legs. An afternoon of watching TV on the sofa with her legs up helps relieve the swelling on her ankles and she feels so much better!! The contoured slope of this product fits her perfectly; she often falls asleep due to the comfort.
Best purchase this year!
I’m currently recovering from blood clots in both legs. I searched high and low for a way to elevate them without putting more pressure on them. This solved the issue, and is so soft and comfortable!

This vascular surgeon-designed elevating leg rest gets you in the right position to reap the benefits of better circulation. The cushiony foam is contoured to comfortably cradle legs at the precise angles needed to maximize blood flow. This can reduce swelling and help you feel rested and refreshed faster. There are different sizes suited for different heights and you can opt for extra-wide, too. Made in the USA.
Dr. Christopher Dickson is the vascular surgeon behind the Lounge Doctor elevating leg rest. Dr. Dickson noticed patients putting their legs up to help improve circulation but in less-than-ideal positions that actually inhibited blood flow.
He determined the best angles (and the ones to avoid) needed to let gravity do the work of maximizing blood flow, from the back through the thighs, calves, and lower legs. This can help reduce swelling and leave you feeling refreshed faster.
Pick a leg rest to suit your height and you can opt for extra-wide and added cooling comfort, too. The leg rest feels great if you’re often on your feet, recovering from a leg injury, or are just looking for a super-comfy way to feel refreshed after a long day.
