1. A lateral foot sliding mechanism comprising: a platform having a profiled groove extending along a middle of the platform, a pair of sliding mechanisms, each sliding mechanism including a profiled support having a magnetic insert positioned along the profiled support, the profiled support positionable within the profiled groove, and including elements coupled to the profiled support which are structurally configured to facilitate the sliding of the profiled support along the profiled groove; each sliding mechanism having two base supports fixed to an upper side of the profiled support, with a foot support coupled to each one of the base supports, one of the two base supports defining a higher foot support and one of the two base supports defining a lower foot support, with the higher foot support being adjustable in a vertical and horizontal direction; and wherein the magnetic insert has a first end that is pivotably coupled to the profiled support and a second end that is movable so as to allow the magnetic insert to pivot about the first end thereof, toward and away from the platform, with a rotatable knob extending through the lower foot support and engaging with the second end of the magnetic insert, whereupon rotation of the knob in a first direction raises the second end of the magnetic insert and the rotation of the knob in a second direction lowers the second end of the magnetic insert.
