In general, a footrest is provided under a desk or sofa and is used to place both feet on the floor, but it is helpful in recovering from fatigue and maintaining a proper posture when sitting for a long time because it maintains a comfortable state rather than putting the feet on the floor.

In addition, acupressure protrusions are provided in the part where the soles of the feet touch, or members to which far-infrared rays are irradiated such as jade and elvan are provided, which induces various body improvement effects such as improving blood circulation. Acupressure protrusions may have simple protrusions, but some are provided to be rotatable in a roller-forming type.

However, since such a conventional footrest uses both feet at the same time, it is inconvenient to use it in a state where both legs are regularly collected and the feet are maintained at a certain angle in the legs. That is, when the user wants to extend one leg forward or move it to the rear, the user has to remove the leg from the footrest, take the action, and then bring the leg back to the footrest, and the movement of the foot is also limited. .

In addition, since only a part of the sole of the foot touches the footrest, it is difficult to feel relatively comfortable in use, and it is manufactured in a size that can be used by both feet at the same time, making it difficult to carry or store. In addition, there was a limitation in that no other functions were exhibited other than simply acupressure or far-infrared irradiation.

When the tendon is excessively pressed, pain is caused and there is difficulty in walking, so that the upper surface of the second support part 30 is provided with an upwardly convex cushion pad 31 so that the Achilles tendon part can be comfortably supported. Like the above-described acupressure protrusion 21, the cushion pad 31 may be replaced with a different degree of convexity as needed.

Next, the cushion member 40 is detachably provided on the upper side of the partition plate 11 of the body 10 described above. This cushion member 40 serves to support the heel of the user. This cushion member 40 is detachably fixed to the upper side of the diaphragm 11 of the main body 10 by Velcro tape. For this purpose, a male-velcro tape 41 is provided on the bottom of the cushion member 40 and the diaphragm 11 Arm-Velcro tape 12 is provided on the upper side, respectively. This cushion member 40 is made of a material having a cushioning force so that the heel of the user can be comfortably supported. For example, it may be manufactured in the form of a compression sponge having elastic resilience, and is filled in the outer skin and the inner skin. It can also be made of fillers.

In addition, the above-described cushion member 40 may be heated and cooled to enable hot or cold compresses. In this case, it is manufactured not in the form of a compressed sponge, but in the form of an outer skin and a filling material.There is a filling material that can be heated and cooled inside the fabric, so when hot compressing is required, it can be heated by putting it in a microwave oven. It can also be cooled.

In addition, a hot pack that generates heat when it comes into contact with air for hot compressing may be used as the cushion member 40, or a cool pack that does not freeze even in a freezer may be used as the cushion member 40 because it is immobilized for cold compressing.
