Passive leg exerciser

There are lots of videos on UTube that will give you leg exercises. Some are even from a chair. I used this a lot when I have my foot surgery,

Passive leg exerciser is surely an oxymoron?

Do you mean something that passes an electric current through the muscle causing it to contract?

I suspect they are a waste of money. Ask your doctor.

I looked up these exercisers, they are described as circulation boosters.

Versus Arthritis recommended ‘exercise with Leon’, on uTube.

Stay well clear of circulation boosters if you have had joints replaced.

In the days when I went to the gym, I tried the minibike when sitting in a chair but the bike kept moving away from me. I am sure they do work but it is finding the correct bike for your height of chair.

Did you ever do the leg exercises on long haul flights?
You say that you have difficulty walking can you move your legs? If yes, just do the same as you would on a long flight.

Suitably chasened ?

at least the replies have taken your mind of your legs, hope you get something sorted .
The ones that send “ electric shocks” I haven’t found very good.

Circulation boosters work through the soles of your feet and encourage the venous circulation, they don't exercise the muscles. Faradism actively passes a current through the muscles to make them contract and move. This works the muscles. The best known trade name for this kind of treatment is Slendertone. The third option is actual exercise, moving the legs yourself in some way.
