I am a Wound Specialist with over 20 years of experience treating patients with lower extremity edema. I have found the Upphöja to be very helpful in the reduction of edema in patients who have difficulty getting their lower extremities elevated independently and consistently. I recommend the Upphöja  as an alternative method of elevation.

I recently had hip replacement surgery.  My doctor said I needed to keep my legs elevated to control swelling in my ankles. I live alone, how do I do that?  My son got me an Upphöja and it works great. I can move it and control everything by myself. I couldn’t do any of this with pillows or solid foam.  Love this thing. 

I am a nurse and am 8 months into my 1st pregnancy. Until I found Upphöja I was using pillows and I was getting no relief.  Now I can come home and put my feet up without needing assistance in lifting my already tired and heavy legs over stacked pillows.  I simply place my legs on the Upphöja, press the button on the remote and I am elevated and comfortable.

"Upphöja is an innovative solution to help with leg swelling, and the subsequent medical problems that can result from this condition. It is easy to use with the remote controlling the inflation to just the right height for each individual. Plus, it is light weight and easily portable. Upphöja is a wonderful aid for leg edema, regardless of the cause."

"I experience issues from Crohn's disease. After using Upphöja for 15-30 minutes per day I have noticed a huge improvement with tension in my lower back. I have not found anything that is this easy to use and comfortable. Because of this find myself using it daily, something I never did with pillows. "

The product makes it easy for people of limited mobility to elevate their feet above their heart to reduce swelling in the feet and lower legs. Because it is adjustable, it also eliminates the search for the right combination of cushions and pillows to obtain the correct amount of elevation for each individual perso

I suffer from HUV. After sitting in the car for 4-8 hours in a car, it was great to be able to come home, set up the Upphöja and put my feet up and relax. Much easier and more comfortable than the pillows I used before. Typically in 30 minutes my legs felt much better. Thanks Upphöja!

I have lymphedema and had a blood clot. All the wedges I tried to use were not what I needed and hard to use. I was desperately seeking a better solution as I could not afford an adjustable bed. I finally found the Upphoja machine and it was the solution I needed. I personally think every household should have one on hand

I recently had a Calcanea Osteotomy. I was non weight bearing for 6 weeks and then needed to continue to elevate for another month. The Upphoja was perfect for my recovery. It allowed me to attend classes at work and work at my desk while elevating my ankle. I highly recommend this for anyone with any foot or ankle surgery.

I have had it for a couple years I love it! I use it on my legs, my hips and when I had my shoulder redone! I love it! It works for everything!

Easy and affordable. Excellent Customer Service. Works great.

Love mine it is WELL worth the price. The speed of inflate and deflate is astounding, and great quality too.

I am a home healthcare worker and I would love to see some of my patients with Edema get this. Most need someone to shove pillows under their legs and then someone to remove them.

I got one and it is fantastic.

This does the trick to get your legs elevated. It definitely helped my swollen foot & leg after a total knee operation. I could see the difference.
