StepIt™- The Rocking Foot Pedal: It was especially designed to increase the blood circulation and decrease leg swelling in the lower legs. Its simple but ingenious design will simulate walking and activate the Calf Muscle Pump (CMP) in the lower leg. Increased blood circulation will also decrease the chances to develop blood clots and with that Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).

Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT): The Calf Muscle Pump (CMP) is often considered as the body’s secondary heart. As long as the leg is active, the CMP pumps the venous blood from the foot back up to the heart. However, as soon as the leg becomes inactive, blood circulation is significantly reduced and chances for leg swelling may occur. In addition, conditions to develop blood clots and Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) increases.

Clinically proven: The pedal was invented by the Swedish Professor Christer Busch at the University Hospital in Uppsala, Sweden. It was invented to increase blood circulation and decrease leg swelling while sitting inactive for any length of time. It is clinically proven to increase the blood circulation and decrease any leg swelling in the lower leg.
