Not sure. I feel the slope for a laptop is almost too steep and too high sometimes depending on the position you sit but for sudoku on a dialysis chair it might be fine. Its very comfortable. I'd say go for it if you'll also use it for a laptop because its well made, good quality and big enough to use as a lap desk but also lightweight, and quite affordable

If the chair is like the ones I've seen, much like a recliner, then yes. I use my 15" tray in a recliner, from upright to fully reclined. I have severe lower back pain, and work 12+ hours a day in my recliner using.

I don't know exactly what a dialysis chair is but I would guess yes. I mainly use mine for my laptop. But now that you mention sudoku I think I will use it at might while I do sudoku in bed.

Yes. Just reach back and move it into the position you want. No need to get out of the chair.

I don't think so. I used it with my hands for rehab after a shoulder replacement. I forced it to go around faster than the motor wanted it to and got more resistance out of it. That's not good for the motor but I didn't want to be a passive participant in the "exercise". I ended up buying a cheap non=electrical unit that has a thumb screw on top to increase the resistance. It also allowed me to go backwards. This Motorized cycle goes at a particular speed and you just hold on. It's funny that people comment that they don't get a very good work out with it. They are passive while the cycle moves their feet of hands around. Hope this helps

I don't remember what the instructions said, but I would not use it that way as the massagers are very firm and full body weight in a reclining position could be painful. Check instructions. In my office chair it is perfect!

Yes, if you use it in the standing position. No, if you are using it sitting down.

Sorry - I have not timed it - I can do both of my feet (that sometimes need some major help) and I also got the extra piece for cleaning up the cuticals etc. (which I LOVE also) on both my feet and hands - I usually plug it in when I'm done so its ready for next week. You can use it while its plugged in - just in case you run out of juice. I think its one of the BEST things I've purchased in a long time!! MY FEET FEEL GREAT - ALL THE TIME!! Hope you get one!

I'm not a Dr. but I've used this device all over my back area with great results. So long as you can lay it flat and not on a curved area like the top of the shoulder it should work fine. Remember to use lower levels of intenstiy and work up not the other way around because this is electricity, hope this helps, Paul.

I don't see why not. It assists getting you up out of the chair. It was perfect for me when I was very weak when I started chemo.

It depends upon your height and the length of your leg from knee to heel. The seat is well padded under the thigh. If the height of the chair to the floor is adjusted so your feet rest flat against the floor, you should have no problem. A trick I use to relieve pressure points is to occasionally lean back and rest my feet on the base of the chair. From what I've read, it's hard on the back and the whole body to sit for a prolonged period of time; so I usually get up and walk around a bit and stretch. This usually relieves any muscle tightness I experience.

Yes, you can just use the heat or the massage feature by itself, or you can use the two together. I actually liked the cushion. I found it very comfortable but I returned it because the massage feature was too loud.

My physician recommended this item after I broke my neck. I can swim w/o turning my head to breath. It does work well; however, swimming is not really my thing and I am not significantly enamored with the pool. Although I do plan to build strength and endurance in the pool, starting in the spring to prepare myself for whitewater kayaking.

The unit is Stiff & is met to be used while the body is at rest. However, I see no reason why you couldn't use if on the job, It's just up to you.

It would be hard to do to get the full effect of this product. I think it was designed to be used while lying down so that the neck muscles are fully relaxed and the device on firm surface.

Haven't tried. It's on my neck for half an hour at most--not sweaty and no food near it, and I don't use it every day. I suspect the manufacturer is the one to ask. I have a feeling you can't because of the foam, but they may say otherwise. Sorry I can't be more helpful. I am satisfied with it for my purposes-- which is some periodic neck tension relief.

James, this machine only works in the seated position. This is why I bought it. Lying leg curls hurt my knees so seated, I get the same exercise for the most part without the pain... if you want to do the lying leg curls, you can get a bench that has many attachment options, leg curl attachment being one. I hope this is helpful... keep at it.... :)
