Abstract: A novel foot rest for a salon chair specifically designed to allow a user to rest one of their feet on the step as they move around a customer sitting in the chair. The orthopedic footrest is attached to the base of the chair positioned far enough out from the base to provide a support for the user to rest his/her feet but not too far so as to impede the stylist movement about the chair. Resting one foot on the elevated step puts relieves stress on the user's feet, hips, back and joints thereby reducing pain and injury to the same.
