The Porch Foot Rest
The "Therapeutic" Foot Rest?
The "Therapeutic" Foot Rest was created as a simple yet effective addition to any of our seating—designed to enhance the way you relax in your DreamRocker and/or Duck Chair. Even with our near perfect lumbar support, some find that keeping their feet slightly elevated helps reduce lower back pressure and encourages better posture. It’s a small adjustment that makes a big difference for those managing back tension or seeking all-day comfort outdoors.
"DUX rocking chairs are by far the most comfortable outdoor rockers I’ve ever sat in. I have back issues and these chairs actually make it comfortable and enjoyable to sit outside. The lumbar support is wonderful! I also purchased one of the foot stools, which additionally helps with my back comfort. Elevating my feet slightly made this a perfect addition to my rockers!
These are well made products designed to last a lifetime! They are the best outdoor furniture purchase I’ve ever made." AB, Piney Creek, NC
Crafted from ¾" marine-grade Starboard ST, The "Therapeutic" Foot Rest is weatherproof, maintenance-free, and built to endure the elements season after season.
Small footprint, BIG difference!
Non-slip feet keep it stable on any surface, so it stays put as you shift and settle in. Purposeful, durable, and understated, it’s the finishing touch that completes a truly comfortable sitting experience.

Care and Maintenance:
- Routine cleaning: Rinse with a hose, then wipe with mild soap and water. For tougher grime, use a non‑abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth or soft nylon brush. Avoid excessive scrubbing pressure to preserve the matte finish.
- Stain removal: For persistent stains, let a diluted bleach solution sit briefly, then rinse thoroughly. Citrus cleaner, isopropyl alcohol, or mineral spirits can help with grease and sunscreen; test in a small area first.
- Scratch care: Light surface scuffs can often be minimized with automotive silicone spray or furniture polish; do not use on walking surfaces. Deep gouges are cosmetic and do not affect performance.
- No refinishing required: Starboard ST is UV‑stabilized, color‑through material that won’t peel or flake, and it cannot be painted. Keep wood oils (e.g., teak oil) and wood stains away from the surface.
- Hardware check: Rinse salt and pollen periodically. Inspect 316 stainless fasteners seasonally; tighten if needed.
- Pressure washing: Safe when used at moderate pressure and distance; avoid aggressive tips held close to the surface.
- Seasonal care: No storage or sealing required. If storing, keep pieces clean and dry, and avoid heat above 180°F.
- General setup: Place on level surfaces to reduce uneven wear on rocker rails or feet. Lift to move—don’t drag across abrasive concrete.
