ABSTRACT:
A lower body support device is shown herein. The lower leg of the user is positioned such that the knee of the user rests within the area defined by a knee frame, the shin of the user rests within the area defined by a bend frame, and the ankle of the use rests in the region of an ankle frame. A strap bar means connected to the knee frame allows for the securing of a knee pad, such knee pad is user chosen, worn by the user and strapped to the knee frame via the strap bar means. A seat insert is secured to the top of the ankle frame. The user wears one leg support device on each leg. While resting on a surface, the bottom of the knee frame and the bottom of the ankle frame, and possibly the knee pad worn by the user, contact said surface. Preferably, the buttocks of the user rests on the seat insert, which transfers a significant portion of the weight of the user to the surface via the frames. The ankle frame and knee frame greatly limit the possibility of side-to-side motion. Additionally, the user may stand and walk while employing the leg support device.
