Can you have back up in sitting position, at same time, as having up feet up. If my feet dangle they swell up.

The back doesn't start moving back until the foot rest comes all the way up.

no! When the foot rest comes up the back goes down slightly until the foot rest is all the way up then it reclines as far as you want it.

The legs and the backrest open and close in sequence. You cannot control them individually. When you press the 'open' button - the legs are risen first while your backrest is straight. When the legs are all up - the backrest slides back. When closing - it's reverse tracks the order. Hope this helps.

These sockes are like dress socks and I read that u can use them at rest and while walking and daily activities...like my husband does. I don't see why you couldn't . I think it would help the swelling and from your legs becoming for fatigued and get better results from the compression. My hubbie sometimes wears regular socks over the compression socks to help reduce any friction. It's up to your comfort level

No. You push it down with your feet and the foot rest is actually so tight that you have to use your hands to close it completely. I think it will loosen up over time.

No, just roll them open to get the toes in easily, and unroll them up to put on. I've used these for foot pain for a while, and they are great. I just had serious foot surgery and have to keep compression on to prevent swelling - these are perfect!

I would say "yes". You sit comfortably and all the work is done with the legs. Handholds beside the seat allow you to stay in position easily, without any strain.

may be is the type of cover you have, or you are a little bit unstable while sitting. I order this same cushion for my patient some months back and he is doing fine with it. I suggest that you use cloth or fabric cover on it.

Mine did not fit right completely, there's three parts to it, so i would take a part off and only use one or two, yes it does roll up to form to you when you sit. I don't know if it actually helped with anything though. I got tired of mine after a week.

I agree that chair is close to ground, & may cause high knees when feet are placed on the foot rests. Good chair otherwise.

Yes. You put your feet under where your back goes as it lifts up. It works great.

I bought this chair for my mother. I believe that you can raise he legs and then if you continue to press the button the back begins to recline...so you can sit up straight with your legs up!

Christian, to clarify... if you are laying flat, your feet will not be higher than your heart, but if you bring your ankle up on the opposite knee or put your hands up to the top of the chair, you will be. I use this method (with the knee) if I want to rock in the chair laying down.

"Lift" is just what people mean by how much your foot goes up after the heel insert is put in your shoe. You are putting something in your shoe that "lifts" your foot up. Does that make sense? Instead of your heel sitting flatly on the original insole, it now is up a bit because of the insert, which is what I do not like about the insert, as it puts my foot up higher than where shoes are slightly indented to "hug" your ankle. See how the back of your shoe rounds in above your heel/ankle? Putting in the heel insert made it so my head was up there a bit.

no there more a confort sock then a compression sock there very long. giving discomfort when sitting

Not when the back is in an upright position. If you lean all the way back in the chair, then legs would be above the heart.

I've never had any problem like that. My knees don't get uncomfortable and my feet don't lose circulation. The majority of your weight is still supported on the seat.

Both move at same time. I think that is why they call them gravity chairs. Allows equillibrium near center of chair for upper and lower parts of your body. My guess only...

The answer to your question is yes. you can have the feet up without having the back down.
