Device that enables the foot to turn at the ankle, in the vertical plane, up to 20 DEG forwards and backwards, starting from the horizontal position when turning. It is characterized basically by an inferior end of cylindrical form, truncated by a support surface on the top forming a heel adapted to the foot's shape with and anti-slippery surface that contains protuberances distributed symmetrically in all its extension. The adjustment of the foot to the device is carried out by means of a subjection stripe at the instep area implemented with closing velcro, guaranteeing the complete fixation of the foot to the device. The use of the proposed device, before or after a plane trip, allows blood stream circulation, and prevents the lower-body inflammation known as Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT).
