Quick answer
The Struqt Foot Companion wraps around your foot or ankle and combines soothing heat, gentle vibration massage and rhythmic air compression. To use it: charge it, sit with your feet raised, fasten the wrap snugly, choose low settings and relax – it switches off automatically at the end of the session. It's cordless and charges by USB-C. Most people use it for about 15 minutes per foot in the evening.
The triple method explained
Most foot massagers do one thing. The Struqt Foot Companion combines three methods, because tired feet rarely have just one problem – they're often achy, cold and heavy at the same time.
| Method | What it does | How it feels |
|---|---|---|
| Heat | Warms the foot and ankle to help muscles relax | Like a cosy, gentle hot water bottle |
| Vibration massage | Gentle vibration to ease tired muscles | A soft, relaxing buzz |
| Air compression | Air chambers inflate and release around the foot and ankle, supporting circulation | A rhythmic, gentle squeeze – like a firm hug |
Each method can help on its own, but together they're designed to help tired, heavy feet feel lighter and more comfortable.
How to use the Struqt Foot Companion in 6 steps
- 1
Charge it fully
Before first use, charge the Foot Companion with the included USB-C cable using a USB wall adaptor, laptop or power bank.
- 2
Sit comfortably
Sit on a sofa, armchair or bed, ideally with your feet raised on a footstool or cushion.
- 3
Wrap and fasten
Place the wrap around your foot or ankle and fasten the strap so it feels snug but not tight – you should fit a finger underneath.
- 4
Switch on and choose settings
Press the power button, then choose heat, massage and compression. Start on the lowest settings.
- 5
Relax for the session
Sit back for the timed session. The device switches off automatically at the end.
- 6
Swap feet and check your skin
Move it to the other foot, or use two at once. Afterwards, check your skin looks normal.
Which method helps which feeling?
You can adjust each method separately, so you can match the session to how your feet feel that day:
| If your feet feel… | Try more of… | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Heavy, puffy or tight around the ankles | Compression | A rhythmic squeeze supports circulation and eases that heavy feeling – see swollen feet |
| Cold or stiff | Heat | Warmth helps muscles relax and feet feel cosy – see heated foot massager |
| Achy and tired after a long day | Vibration | Gentle massage helps tired muscles unwind |
| Sore arches or heels | Heat + vibration | See plantar fasciitis |
| A bit of everything | All three, low settings | The full triple method |

What a typical 15-minute session feels like
- Minute 0–2: once fastened and switched on, you'll feel the soft vibration straight away and the air chambers begin to fill, giving a gentle squeeze before releasing.
- Minute 2–5: the warmth builds gradually. Most people describe it as a comfortable, cosy heat rather than hot.
- Minute 5–12: the rhythm settles into a steady squeeze-and-release with warmth and massage. This is when most people relax, put the telly on or pick up a book.
- Minute 12–15: the session winds down and the device switches itself off. Your foot usually feels warm, loose and lighter.
If anything feels too strong or too warm, turn it down or switch it off – you're always in control.
Choosing your settings
Everyone's feet are different. Start on the lowest heat, massage and compression settings and increase gradually. Lots of people prefer more warmth in winter and more compression after a long day standing. If you have reduced feeling in your feet, always stay on the lowest settings – see foot massager for neuropathy.
Charging and battery
The Foot Companion is rechargeable via the included USB-C cable – plug it into a USB wall adaptor, laptop or power bank. A full charge gives several sessions, so you won't be plugging it in every day. Being cordless means no trailing cables, which is safer in the living room and lets you use it anywhere.
Getting the most from it
- Be consistent: a short session most evenings works better than an occasional long one.
- Raise your feet: elevation helps with heavy, puffy ankles.
- Move too: ankle circles and short walks keep the calf-muscle pump working.
- Use two: treating both feet together is more relaxing and halves the time.
- Follow the free guide: 2- and 3-packs include the 14-Day Swelling Reduction Protocol.
Care and cleaning
- Switch off and unplug before cleaning.
- Wipe the surface with a slightly damp cloth and mild soap; let it air dry fully before use.
- Don't put it in a washing machine, submerge it in water or use it on wet feet.
- Store it somewhere cool and dry, away from pets.
- Recharge every few weeks if you're not using it, to keep the battery healthy.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Try this |
|---|---|
| It won't switch on | Charge it fully with the USB-C cable, then try again. |
| It doesn't feel warm | Heat builds gradually over a few minutes; check heat is switched on and try a higher level. |
| Compression feels weak | Fasten the strap a little more snugly so the air chambers sit against your foot or ankle. |
| Compression feels too tight | Loosen the strap and lower the compression level. |
| It switched off mid-session | The battery may be low – recharge. It also stops automatically at the end of each session. |

Safety
Don't use it on broken skin, wounds or a leg that's suddenly swollen, red, hot or painful. Don't sleep wearing it. Speak to your GP first if you have diabetes, a circulation condition, a history of blood clots, a heart condition or pacemaker, or are pregnant. Read our guides for diabetics and circulation.
How it compares
Unlike EMS footplates, it doesn't use electrical stimulation – see Struqt vs Revitive. Unlike shiatsu boxes, it covers the ankle and is cordless – see foot and ankle massager and best foot massager UK.
