Did you know by sitting for long periods at your desk you're at risk from so-called "e-thrombosis"?

Thanks heavens there's help from the gadget world in the guise of the "Circulation Booster" that sends out mild electrical impulses which stimulate the thousands of nerve endings in the soles of the feet.

This (that apparently feels like a pleasant "tingling") works the muscles of the calf like gentle exercise, claiming to improve blood circulation.

If you don't want to die at your desk, as the press release cheerfully suggests might happen, the gadget is on sale now for £200.
