I'm obsessed. It's so much better than static standing at a standing desk. I've already recommended it to multiple people.

Fast delivery, great product & well made.

I love it! My feet are feeling the changes already and I’ve only had the Movemate for about what… 5 days? Thank you I love all that you can do on this board/ slatted board!
Thanks again!
Cheers

I have been using the MoveMate for about three weeks and love it. I can feel my feet growing stronger and standing on the board feels easier on my back than on the concrete. It is also enjoyable to be on…little movements and balance make it fun!
Daniel D.
Really helps break up the workday and stay active. Encourages me to use my standing desk a lot more than I was with simply standing.

Getting the hang of it.. it is great to have and loving it everyday..

The board offers so many options for movement at my desl and is quite fun. It is pretty (if you like wood)
Becky D.
Works great and love the design.

I thought about buying the Movemate for a year, as it was expensive, especially with shipping to Australia. I am so glad I finally made the purchase—it's a game-changer for my sit-stand desk.
I no longer have to schedule time to stand; I now effortlessly move between sitting and standing throughout the day, and stand for much longer periods without getting tired. It’s also a comfortable footrest and helps with some movement when sitting. I had hoped it would alleviate occasional plantar fascia pain, and I haven't had any since I started using it.
It took about a week to gradually increase usage and get used to it. For my carpeted office I added a chair mat, which made the experience much better as it allows for more movement.
If you are looking to easily incorporate more movement into your workday, I highly recommend it.

Really nice and smooth board. I use it whilst working

Excellent because I have terrible pain in my feet sometimes my ankle right up to the tibial band and my toes are broken my baby toes in particular and so this movement gives me a way to work on more range of motion and movement and I feel less pain. I feel better mentally and physically.. the wood slots allow for a lot of movement and play and a lot of movement that I would need for trying to regain mobility movement in my toes and my feet and ankle ….
Thank you
Melanie D.
Love this board! My feet hadn’t felt this good in years.

As a mean to stay active while working, i bought a movemate board. The design really makes it that you don't get tired and can move as you want while on the board. However, I found that the rows on the board makes it more stable and hence a bit easier to stay balanced on the board and maybe be a bit less engaged in keeping a balanced stance. The construction and quality of the product is top notch, but also comes with a significant weight (which is not important for me). I would have liked an option to keep the board "stiff" (maybe able to add rods across the board?) and in that mode have a balance board as little stable as a standard one (flat surface with a half sphere below). Overall I'm satisfied with the product but can't say it's perfect!
Kristina W.
The board is nice. My husband enjoys it but wishes is moved a bit more.
AARON A.
Excellent craftsmanship. Great bit of kit. Love it!!
Lucy D.
Solid, beautifully crafted, kind underfoot and safe enough for two, post mid life persons to use.

It helps me from sitting 8 hours in my job to using my movemate for at least 3 hours. My legs feel much more powerful and I have no tight muscles. I get to talk to colleagues about the movemate and they show interest
Jo A.
I love my Movemate, and so does my Physiotherapist, and also my Pilates instructor!
As a hypermobile human with global joint instability, my body is more relaxed on unstable surfaces than solid ground, so simply standing on the Movemate makes me feel like I'm floating instead of constantly bracing to keep myself upright.
My physio observed less compression in my ribcage when on the Movemate compared to standing on the floor, which will reduce the discomfort I feel daily.
My Pilates instructor noted improved alignment, range and proprioception as she took me through a sequence of Pilates exercises - she's now planning on purchasing one for her studio!
The board is solidly constructed and the wood is beautiful, I'm really glad to have made the investment.
5 Stars!
Jill Z.
I love this balance board. I previously had a Gymba, which offered rocking back and forth horizontally, but this board has so much more opportunity for movement. I love how much it articulates and it feels awesome to use it barefoot. I work 9-10 hours in my office everyday, and this has already helped me improve stiffness and get moving in an otherwise sedentary, computer-heavy job.
Also, shout out of appreciation to the awesome customer service team who was incredibly helpful and friendly when my order got stuck in (stupid) US customs. I'm glad to support a Canadian company, especially for such an awesome product. Worth every penny!
Bob B.
Great quality product
Brian R.
It is a gentle but interesting flex item.
Trish C.
You can instantly feel muscles/tendons in your ankle and feet working. The ability to move while using a standing desk is a huge difference from just standing in place -- I think this is an efficient, easy way to add small but important movement for anyone who spends time at a desk!
Margaret G.
Such a well made, helpful piece of equipment! I’m using it post-hip replacement surgery to prepare my body for skiing. My personal trainer recommended it to me and I am delighted!
Cheryl R.
I think the Movemate board is relaxing; I find myself unconsciously rocking and turning as I stand on it. I use it mainly in the kitchen, where I stand doing food prep. I also use it for standing breaks in my home office, during phone calls or as a way to move while thinking without needing to walk away. I love using it barefoot: the rounded slats are a mini-massage and feel good to the soles of my feet. It tucks away easily, either leaned up on a wall or pushed under furniture, which I appreciate, as I don’t want “things” cluttering up my living space. Unobtrusive, unlike a lot of conventional “exercise” equipment. For such a small piece, I’m getting a lot of benefit from it, and am surprised how often I use it.
Austin T.
Have loved the movemate at my standing desk since I got it. I use it everyday while working and it makes standing or sitting with good posture an easier and more fun thing to do while working.
Dave G.
Wonderful for my office desk use! I have a bad lower back, so standing still hurts over time. The Movemate helps keep my back from getting stiff, and i get a core workout from it as well!
Suebe
Hugging my let’s move mate because I love it. I have excruciating pain pains in my feet and it’s hard for me to get my toes some of them to touch the ground. My pinky toes on both feet are broken and there’s constant bruising there because of the way I’m walking so this magical wooden board allows me to get movement in my toes that I’m not getting barefoot or with shoes and it gives me hope in increasing mobility rather than continuing to lose it in my joints in my feet and my ankles so I can’t thank you enough. I’ve pains in my neck and my body and this helps with that. I just feel better even if I’m sitting down using it I don’t have to stand. I can just sit and move my toes and feet and ankles a little bit and it just feels awesome and it’s fun to stand and do it as well thanks and gratitude for such an excellent excellent mate to move with.
David M.
Very helpful for ankle stability and my arthritic big toe.
Erika S.
Really love it! Active standing! Who knew? You all did!
Paulette C.
Person whom I gifted this movement board is recovering from a foot injury in soccer and has found this is a great add to recovering/building strength back.
Martha M.
Really enjoying Movemate and have recommended it to someone else looking to stand work. I have been looking for something like this a long time. Proud it's Canadian.
Gaby M.
I purchased this board to invest in my health. I am currently a law student and school has taken a toll on my daily activity levels. Ive had it about 2 weeks and already feeling some improvement in my lower back pain and seeing improved posture.
Sarah W.
looks great, feels great!
Carolyn E.
Great feeling to be moving while writing! Love it.Great idea
Jordi B.
I'm loving it and find myself spending 3-4 hours at once since day once without noticing!
Ahmed I.
What a wonderful product, already using it and it was easy to use.
I now use it 30% of my work time, which not only has changed my energy, but also my posture.
Thank you!!
Lisa E.
It is a little hard on the feet. I don't know how to de-feet that! ☺️ -- Neal
Shannon H.
It is like a massage and work out all in one. I feel energized and relaxed after being on it. Thank you. I would love to see a travel size or smaller option if you are taking requests.
Susan A.
I heard about MoveMate from Katy Bowman's podcast and had to try it. It's wonderful! I use it in the living room when I'm watching TV or just trying to get more movement in. Since I'm new to it, I use it for a few minutes multiple times a day and am working into longer sessions. I can feel it working on my feet and ankles. MoveMate is beautiful and well-made. I'm very happy with my purchase.
Teri R.
It is very easy to use and move from place to place. It's wonderful for balancing. I haven't used it for longer than 10 or 15 minutes at a time. I look forward to using it more.
Annie M.
I got this for my family for Christmas, and everyone loves it. It moves around the house, and people stand on it while talking. Even guests can't resist getting on it, and usually remark about how much work it is to stay on.
Our package got stuck in transit, and customer service was wonderful. They contacted me before I noticed the problem, and were very proactive and communicative.
Vern D.
I received the MoveMate board a few days ago and I’m genuinely impressed with the build quality—it feels extremely well made and solid. I have plantar fibromas, which can be quite painful, and I can already tell that using this board is having a positive effect.
MARIA JIMENA R.
Great for the people that work on a standing desk!
Sondra R.
They buried the lede! This thing is a perpetual shiatsu foot massage MACHINE. Feels so good on my feet.
Heather B.
It helps keep an interest in standing by making it much more engaging and fun. I am loving this movement tool so far!
Janet U.
I've lived with MS for over 32 years and at this stage, my balance and mobility are poor...but the Movemate used beside our high kitchen counter is already proving to be a great way for me to practice my balance, stretch my calves and move my legs in different ways that are not physically easy for me on my own!! I look forward to more progress and freedom!! Thank you for creating the Movemate!!
Shirin F.
It was a good feet massage
i wont be able to work and move at the same time but can do phone calls on it
and addictive
standing and sitting were not the same
Evaristo P.
Good Experience and i love the movements
Reb W.
Five stars plus! The quality is incredible and super durable materials.
I love how easy it is to use right out of the box.
Waited a bit to purchase it, and I say don't wait get your Movemate board right away!
Kerstin W.
It’s been a little while since I got it, and I still love it! Feels fantastic on my feet and it’s fun to use!
Alejandra F.
I purchased the Move Mate as a Christmas present for my boyfriend. He loved it, I loved it, and now it’s OUR Christmas present
P.S. I live in the Philippines, and I was a bit worried about the delivery, but it arrived super quickly considering it was international shipping. The Move Mate arrived in perfect condition. There is an extra delivery fee (clearly stated before checkout), but for the Philippines it’s very accessible, around PHP 600 (about USD 10).
Kourosh H.
A fantastic device for improving balance, strengthening your core, stretching your calves, and activating the muscles in your feet and toes.

Movemate has been great at keeping me moving, stretching, and balancing throughout my workday. It’s also great for me as someone who fidgets constantly, as it gives me a more productive outlet for releasing energy
Daniel D.
Love it! Use it every day at work, and now my partner wants one too for her desk!
Richard S.
I work at home on a standing desk. After using the Movemate board for 2 weeks more or less all day long, I am very pleased. For the previous 4 years, I have stood on the FluidStance Level board. The Movemate doesn't have the same level of rotation, but of course the flexible surface more than compensates. My dream board would combine the rotation of the FluidStance with the surface of the Movemate. Although the slats are rounded, they can get a bit tough on the feet, so I added the FluidStance mat on top, which fits perfectly. I also use a ground mat to stop any impact on my floorboards.
Dave M.
My Network Spinal Analysis (NSA) chiropractor who has a neuro-spinal, wellness enhancing practice introduced me to this board 9 months after I had a meniscectomy and I am thrilled with it! I can't wait to show it to the staff at the physio clinic I am attending for rehab!
Brenda O.
I am a Pilates instructor and find this so great for posture evaluation and helping seniors be mindful of their balance.
Eric F.
I bought it for my wife. She loves it. Also appreciate the personal note that came with it congrats and Happy Christmas!
Frank R.
Great concept! Really gets you moving at your standing desk.
Ilana I.
Looooove the feeling in the body and on the souls of my feet.
Thank you so much

Should come with a link to how to use it in a workout.
Anup B.
I generally don't like a standing desk as it feels so boring to stand. But first time I tried this, I was having fun and didn't even get off for a while even watching tv. Helps me stand while working and have fun with it.
Madeline D.
Love it. Worth the money. I spent a year researching before I bought.
Carlos Aldo E.
very easy to start to use, now is part of my home-office set-up.
Petter L.
Love the quality of the board, but would like to get some more hands-on suggestions on how to make the most out of it
Ernest C.
Great product, really nice for my feet and ankles and keeping my legs entertained while working at my desk. I would be even happier if there was a larger range of motion in the mobility - more range rocking back and forth and while flexing and extending my feet. Also, my board does not pivot easily from side to side as advertised, which was disappointing.
Rachel F.
It felt comfortable and relaxing
Marc C.
It is so awesome. Love it.
Jane E.
I bought it for myself but have barely had a look in as the rest of the family have been hogging it. We are all skiers and have been using it for the last few weeks as feels brilliant for specifically moving feet and ankles before we go. Also son broke a couple of bones in his foot six months ago and is loving using it. Am about to purchase another for my fit but in their 80s parents to help with their mobility and balance.
James B.
Really well made and fun to use!
Georgi I.
I have bought Movemate for a birthday present for my girlfriend. She got absolutely mad about it. She said that it was the best birthday present ever. We have tried it and it is wonderful, we are gym climbers and it is so good for balance. Also the design of the board is amazing, the fact that it has been made by wood makes it even more amazing. And finally, few good works about the customer service. They gave me additional discount for the shipping and were really nice providing me with honest overview of all the options that I have for delivery to my country, so kudos for them! Hope for the Movemate team and their business to blossom!
Al B.
wonderful device to keep active while doing office tasks or reading. Keeps my mind from wandering.
Catherine l.
I know I would love it but to expensive
Cheryl T.
I totally love movemate, and I use it every day to get my body moving and enhance circulation. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking for an easy and fun way to exercise!
Jeffrey A.
After only a couple of weeks, I am already feeling increased mobility in my ankles and improved focus on my work. Truly loving my movemate (and the unexpected desire to take up surfing)!
Monica H.
Its nice to start with it, it helpt my back.
Chad S.
Great active standing desk tool especially for someone that had had spine surgery
BJ F.
I knew this would be well made -- and it is.
The surprise was this: Movemate decreases my lower back pain. (The company probably can't make this claim, but that's how it's working for me.)
Kerstin
I just got my Movemate yesterday, and I love it so far! I started playing with it right out of the box, and I’ve since already used it for 30 minutes today. It’s exactly what I wanted! I’m really glad I decided to ignore some of the negative Reddit posts I saw about it. I’ve been having a weird pain at the base of my heel that I’ve not been able to rub out with a tennis ball, but this board hits it perfectly! It’s a great massage for my feet while simultaneously stretching my arches and calves and exercising my hips (I also suffer from hip pain). I’m thrilled so far! I have a family member who is a physical therapist, and I’ve even told them about this board. I’m impressed! It feels sturdy so far, but we’ll see if it can hold up to the use I’m about to put it through! I’ll update here in a few months if my opinion changes, but I’m as happy as can be right now.
Nancy L.
The Movemate is everything I had hoped. It keeps me from locking my knees and standing still for too long, and it's definitely challenging my old and damaged ankle joint to stay limber.
What I had not expected was how much Movemate would inform me about my scoliosis-influenced pelvis and movement. I find myself moving several inches in one direction after some wave time. This is great feedback - and now I have to learn how to wave more strongly in counterpoint to stay in the same spot.
Movement and improvement, all while working. What could be better?
It's a beautifully-made piece that I'm happy to have in my little home office. Thanks, Movemate!
Watsachon R.
It’s very fun!
Linda J.
Move mate is a wonderful adjunct to healthy function from the feet up through the kinetic chain…..love it.
Katrina B.
We bought it for my partner who.is recovering from a stroke. It is the first time that ive heard him happy after an exercise. He says it feels so good and it looks like his body is moving more fluidly. I love it too.
Olivia W.
So fun and helps me get more steps in without impact to my joints.
Amy A.
I am rehabbing after knee replacement surgery and the movemate has great for staying active when I returned to my desk job. I really like the wave motion, it activates so many muscles and gets me through the afternoon energy slump. Thanks movemate!
