Use a foot rest, had this issue bc I met the weight but the minimum height for the Aeron C and the foot rest made a big difference. Without the footrest, the lip of the seat causes a numbing pressure on my thighs.
I got this foot rest, but there are others available so see what works best for you.

Any foot rest would do the job well! I'm short so my feet don't touch the ground when I'm sitting at most desks and a foot rest always does the job. I like the ones that are at an angle like this https://www.amazon.ca/Mind-Reader-FTREST-BLK-Adjustable-Height/dp/B01MSQDE0U/
Its alright, the texture on the bottom is nice and bumpy. Also rocks pretty smoothly. I would have preferred something a little higher but that's just personal preference. https://www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B01DN8TG46/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1
I don't have this problem, but you could always get a desk foot hammock. They attach to your desk and is elevated, so it'll be out of the way of your wheels.

I wish it was taller and may boost it up with textbooks or something. Not sure. But its fine for how cheap it is
If the front of your legs are going numb, grab yourself a footrest. This is the one I have, and it makes it more comfortable as well as stopping that.
Here is Amazon link for it https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSQDE0U/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_56keEbNZBVMH8 It does raise a good amount and can be almost flat to the floor. Does tilt forward and backwards. Really good foot rest
Weird, that didn't work for me either.
But I found the link, thanks anyway.

It’s this one ComfiLife Foot Rest for Under... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DHMMBFF?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share
I really like it actually. It’s soft but firm. Only thing is you have to vacuum it occasionally because stuff sticks to it. Other than that, it’s great.
It's the basic foot rest from the Amazon basic line. I don't know where you're from but here's the link to the german version: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B01DN8TG46/ref=ppx\_yo\_dt\_b\_search\_asin\_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

This is one that many recommend. I have a cheaper one, but this is height adjustable, which would be really nice.
Yeah I like it a lot I notice that it has help alleviate back pain for me. I would say this particular for me I noticed that I had to wear some kind of shoes while using. This worked out fine for me since I tend to wear slippers in the house.
I will say it is on the pricier side so you may be able to find something at a better price range.
This is a decent budget adjustable footrest: (HUANUO Adjustable Under Desk Footrest](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07L3RVF7C/)
For stronger build quality and a greater range of height adjustability without breaking the bank, there's the Workstream by Monoprice Height-Adjustable Standing Footrest, Steel
I'm very short so I get this with pretty much any chairs. My solution was to buy one of these and it's helped a lot. They do one without the height adjusting block thingy that you might not need.
I can recommend this for ur feets or similar brands https://www.amazon.com/ErgoFoam-Adjustable-Premium-Footrest-Comfortable/dp/B07PWT8X6K/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3OJQ4JVY3LDZ9&keywords=ergo+foam&qid=1643512310&sprefix=ergo+foam%2Caps%2C153&sr=8-5
I bought a cheap "pillow" footrest on Amazon and it was... Ok. Then I got this wooden one and it was a game changer. Would recommend.

>If you have a tower computer put it on that.
Ha, this is actually what I do at home. It's a nice warm $1500 footstool.
Do you know how much elevation is needed to get that benefit? I'm wondering if something like this is still effective, or if it really needs to be something that holds my legs more even with my hips: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MSQDE0U/ref=cm_sw_r_apan_glt_fabc_KKRFGF68653DS8QW9D31
I know this is an oddly specific question but you seem like a veteran foot elevator.

I got a Herman miller, highly recommended if you work from home. I too am a shorty, I got a nice footrest to rest my tootsies. 😂 It’s a great combo! So comfy.
Try a pillow if that works and you want to save money. I use this rest from Amazon works for my leg height, only complaints are could be longer and it is pretty squishy so ur feet can sink in and get hot, works for me tho.
I think the mini fridge or plants comments are good ones. A good chair is great too but can be hard to pick for someone else and can be expensive for a good one. Something simple I highly recommend is a foot pillow foot pillow.
