Pointy shoes prematurely age your feet,
so will prematurely age you.
Throw them away they could shorten your Life.

     Pointy Shoes changes the axis of the big toes and squash and numbs the others, they restrict your circulation so your feet become cold and your more subtle energy - your Chi becomes blocked.
     Pointy shoes sap your vitality, give you corns, pinch your
in-growing toenails; they aggravate your athlete’s feet, hammer your toes, cause and inflame your bunions.
     Squash your toes in pointy shoes and you limit their movement and so you limit your full range of balance, stability and mobility.
     Limit the movement of your toes and you limit the use of their muscles, tendons, ligaments and connective tissues, so they weaken, eventually the bones misalign. So you are more likely
to fall, something we all fear, as we grow older and more brittle.
     Over time your feet - once unfettered, strong, flexible and beautiful, the essence of vitality and youthfulness – become, tired, callused, painful, rigid, deformed, ugly and weak.
     Some will start to limp, become weak kneed, have vague aches, pains in their hips, backache, pains in the neck and headaches. Many loose height.
     Gradually, imperceptibly over time you become less mobile, less active, put on weight, loose independence and so enjoy life less.
     Pointy Shoes prematurely age your feet, so will prematurely age you.
     Throw them away - they could shorten your Life!
     When you start wearing my feet-shaped Shandals® or shoes and stop wearing, pointy shoes then naturally your feet begin to heal and rejuvenate.
     Put your weight onto your hands and you naturally spread your fingers out to distribute your weight. Given the chance this is what our toes want to do. It's natural. It's normal. Wide feet are beautiful.
     My Shandals® and Shoes have a straight inside edge and are
broad over the Metatarsal Arch like Normal healthy feet.
     So they will not squash, cramp, deform or limit your mobility or restrict your circulation. Your toes can spread and stretch out for maximum balance, stability and agility. Your full weight is evenly distributed over your ten stretched toes. Your movement and circulation is unrestricted, so there is a release of blocked Chi – blocked energy. Your feet become warmer because your toes are unfettered and your full range of movement is gradually restored.
     My Shandals® and shoes have healing properties.
     Your corned squashed little toes will heal. Hammer Toes have a chance to straighten; your athlete’s feet can start to breathe and your misaligned big toes have a chance to straighten.
     Weakened under-used muscles are exercised so strengthen, tendons stretch, so your feet and legs rejuvenate.
     Clients become light on their feet. They find themselves on their toes more, they get exercised and so they gradually and naturally strengthen. Stronger toes reflect in stronger arches, ankles and legs.
     Combined with a low heel, the back of the legs stretch, and this is reflected in a more upright elegant posture.
     Your natural gracefulness of movement, elan, dignity, stature and youthful vitality are restored and rejuvenated. Walking becomes an entirely different experience - a smooth, rolling, rhythmic energising walk with immense strength, agility and control of movement. The joy of dance is awakened in your feet and you feel completely grounded.
     Although Shandals® were originally designed for Grandmothers with damaged feet young people just love them because you can wear Shandals® all day and dance in them all night.
