Flightfeet - A Healthy Way to Fly!
For most of us, air travel means "aisle, row or window" for the duration of the flight. Aside from being uncomfortable, prolonged seating during air travel can reduce blood circulation in the legs, causing stiffness and swelling.
It can also increase the risk of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), also known as "economy class syndrome" or "traveler's thrombosis." Medical authorities recommend that travelers walk as much as possible during flights to prevent this condition.
However, due to cramped conditions, turbulence, etc., walking around on the airplane is usually not possible.
The solution- Flightfeet! Developed by a leading vascular surgeon, Flightfeet imitates natural walking in a seated position. This easy, effortless motion causes the calf muscles to contract, assisting venous blood back to the heart, augmenting arterial blood inflow, and accelerating the lymphatic system.
