Shoes are usually regarded from the standpoint of aesthetic: "beautiful - not beautiful, goes - does not go, cool!" The issue of ergonomics and maintaining the correctness of the foot, and with it the posture, is secondary until problems of an osteopathic nature make themselves felt. We decided to choose brands of useful shoes. Almost all of them were damn expensive!

The most fashionable "healthy" boots are MBT. Cher, Gwyneth Paltrow, Heidi Klum and even Madonna wear them without being embarrassed by their clumsy look. These are sneakers that help improve posture, and even lose weight, and even train muscles. The name stands for Masai Barefoot Technology. And what about the Maasai?

The representatives of this people perfect posture everyone, without exception! This question was investigated by anthropologists, physicians, specialists in biomechanics. It turned out that the straight backs of the Masai are a consequence of their manner of walking barefoot. But the point is not only this, but also the fact that the soil of the area where they live is soft. Walking on it barefoot, a person is in a state of so-called "natural instability". Simply put, when you have sand, moss, loose earth under your feet, you inevitably have to balance. With such walking, muscles are trained - legs, buttocks, abdominals. In addition, stepping on soft (rather than hard, such as asphalt), a person puts much less stress on the joints and spine.

Marina Aleksandrova: "I've had MBT for a year now. I bought it abroad. There are trainers working right in the MBT store who teach customers how to walk in them. It took me 2 days to properly deal with this issue. Having put on MBT for the first time, "You won't go far: your legs get tired. For a month I walked in them for fifteen minutes - half an hour a day, and only after that I was able to walk for a long time. The weight really decreases. It's mainly the hips that lose weight."

The Fontanka correspondent put on shoes with convex, rounded soles, imitating "natural instability." Walking in MBT looked something like this: step, roll, step, roll - from heel to toe. It doesn't look like normal running shoes at all. I literally had to keep my balance all the time. It turned out that MBT definitely requires serious investments: a pair costs from 9,000 to 15,000 rubles!

We managed to find similar shoes with the above characteristics in the “slightly cheaper” segment. It turned out to be Korean RYN sneakers, worth 6000-7000 rubles. There are also imitations in an even more modest price category: the Shape-ups model, released by the sports shoe brand Skechers, costs about 3,000 rubles. This brand arranges seasonal sales, and, for example, right now in St. Petersburg you can buy sneakers for 1300 rubles.

Reebok is also reinventing its ergonomics. In the arsenal of this sports brand, EasyTone sneakers, which, unlike all previous ones, interpret the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bnatural instability in their own way. The EasyTone outsole looks fairly ordinary, but it has bulging air-filled cushions built into it. So, despite its rather standard sneaker look and lack of a convex sole, EasyTone still, like the others, makes the legs balance when walking. These shoes were designed by Bill McInnis, a former NASA engineer and now head of innovation at Reebok. The brand promises that if you go for walks in EasyTone, the load on gluteal muscles will increase by 28%, and on the calf and thigh muscles - by 11%.

Another brand of Vibram FiveFingers has no rounded sole. The idea of ​​Vibram is simple to impossibility - to imitate barefoot walking. It is difficult to call these shoes and shoes. In fact, Vibram FiveFingers is a foot cover that saves the foot from direct contact with everything that comes in the way: sharp pebbles, bumps, for example. Vibram looks like Czechs with five fingers. While the author of the material was pulling “pockets” on each finger (it looks like gloves), she was told the following: “Shoes improve the condition of the legs, help get rid of lower back pain, and improve posture. All this happens due to the fact that the load on the foot is distributed not in the way that the shape of the shoe sets it, but in the way it would be if you walked without shoes at all, as nature probably intended.” Fans of Vibram FiveFingers, as it turned out, are, on the one hand, fans of the so-called "natural running" (that is, barefoot running) and climbers, because "leg gloves" retain the ability for the foot to be mobile, to bend. In a word, they give complete freedom. Such “a la” freedom costs an average of 5,000 rubles.

Made in Russia

The Russian brand under the speaking name "Zdravoobuv" is a slipper trainer. Their appearance is somewhat discouraging, since they look like Chinese plastic slippers, which are usually sold in clothing markets. The idea of ​​"Zdravoobuv" is quite worthy of attention. This is not only a simulator, but also a massager: the insole is covered with many spikes, arranged so that they continuously massage various important points of the foot. All together allows manufacturers to recommend miracle slippers as a means of dealing with everything in the world: overweight, stoop, varicose veins, swelling of the legs, cellulite, general fatigue. Of course, the semicircular sole is applied here as well. Moreover, in "Zdravoobuv" the principle of "natural instability" is brought to its maximum embodiment. Different models are unstable to varying degrees. The gradation is as follows: shoes included in the line for weight loss, it is also “diet shoes” - sway in all directions! The other one, which Zdravoobuv classifies as a "health-improving" one, swings only back and forth. There is also a “massage” line: such shoes do not sway at all, but only tingle the foot with spines, which, I must say, are located on the insole not at all in an arbitrary order, but in accordance with acupuncture principles. Moreover, the spines have different lengths - for the correct impact on each point. Health slippers cost from 1500 to 2000 rubles.

Nastya: “I got Zdravotapki by chance - I bought them at an exhibition of beauty products, because I stood there myself, presenting my own beauty salon. By the third day of the exhibition, my legs were swollen, I bought these slippers out of desperation. At first, she only cursed: putting them on, she almost immediately fell. But then I got used to it. It's hard to balance them. But the effect, if you have to stand for a long time - the legs get tired less and do not swell. I didn’t find a weight loss effect, but I don’t go to them every day. ”

Another Russian invention studied in the context of preparing the publication is PoTapki. The name stands for Potapkin's slimming slippers. Most of all, "PoTapki" are similar to traditional Japanese pokkuri shoes. The sole of Potapkin's shoes is wooden, and not at all oblong, as one might assume, but round. The main oddity of "PoTapok" is that the sole ends somewhere in the middle of the foot, the heel remains without support - a canopy. This design is attached to the leg with two straps. To say that walking in these shoes is difficult is an understatement. To begin with, the manufacturer recommends that you learn to walk on your heel, but as a result, you must learn to move in such a way as to keep your heel overhang. But even if this difficulty did not exist, it would not be easy to master “PoTapki” just because the sole is rounded and unstable. To wear them, you really need to have the ability to acrobatics! It is not surprising that, performing all these tricks, you lose weight rapidly. The cost of a Russian invention, by the way, patented in 2006, is 3,260 rubles.

Osteopath, ergonomics expert Dmitry Simkin gave his advice regarding the choice of shoes:“In terms of children's shoes, the most interesting from the standpoint of ergonomics are Turkish shoes “Minimen” and Tashi Orto, I buy them for my children. Among Russian manufacturers, doctors recommend Skorokhod, although from my point of view, these shoes are very tough. Useful for the feet shoes with arch support, I often meet in the "Prism", the only negative is that they are usually not leather. IN model range Ecco - replicated in terms of ergonomics - not all models are ergonomic, but only those with a high arch support. Although there you can undoubtedly find good models for both children and adults from the standpoint of health. From sports shoes for adults, I would recommend Merrell and Sketchers.

The main recommendation when choosing shoes may be the following: “If there is a problem of choosing between design and ergonomics (which is typical for women), you can choose shoes that you like designer, but be sure to buy an orthopedic insole for it. Of course, it is better to wear ergonomic shoes. In any case, women should take into account that, for example, when using shoes with heels, pressure on the fingers is unacceptable, the hammer should be bent and prevent the foot from slipping forward.

And one more piece of advice. When buying shoes, in order to evaluate its ergonomic properties, you need to walk around the store for at least 10 minutes, or take a pair home, evaluating all the pros and cons within 2 weeks. If the shoes are uncomfortable, it is better to return them.

A novelty in the world of "healthy" shoes - shoes for weight loss and treatment-and-prophylactic shoes. This wonderful shoe - a simulator, a massager and slippers (3 in 1) on a rounded sole was invented by an orthopedic doctor. The unique design of HEALTH SHOES helps to lose overweight when worn regularly, it has a healing effect on the entire body and, first of all, is effective for flat feet, stoop, varicose veins, fatigue, pain, swelling, heel spurs, bones on the legs and cellulite.

HEALTH SHOE (HEALTH SHOE) - SHOE WITH A ROUNDED BALANCE SOLE, IS UNIQUE, ITS EFFICIENCY IS MUCH WIDE THAN OTHER ORTHOPEDIC FOOTWEAR. The principle of operation of ZDRAVOOBUVI is based on the imitation of walking barefoot on the sand. The hard floor under your feet turns into a supple sea sandy beach.

THREE CATEGORIES of footwear are combined under the trademark ZDRAVOOBUV:

SLIMMING SHOE / DIET SHOES / - (rocking in 4 directions), it is also called slimming slippers. It was developed for the prevention and treatment of flat feet, stoop and other posture disorders, varicose veins. In the process of testing, it turned out that Zdravoobuv not only successfully copes with the initial stages of these diseases, but also perfectly eliminates symptoms such as fatigue and swelling in the later stages, pain in the legs, when there are already pronounced deformities. Thanks to the springy sole, the load on the joints is reduced, which is useful for joint diseases. Wearing Health shoes gives a pronounced anti-cellulite effect and reduces body fat. Due to this property, this category of shoes was named.

WELLNESS SHOE - modified model of slimming shoes. Swinging left-right is eliminated, only forward-backward remains. stability is maintained and the load on the muscles is reduced, therefore, the effect of losing weight on the lateral parts of the body is reduced, however, the therapeutic and prophylactic effect is sufficiently preserved for flat feet, if a violation of posture is diagnosed, with varicose veins and other diseases of the musculoskeletal system. WELLNESS shoes allow you to strengthen the muscles of the front and rear surface body, buttocks, thighs, reduce cellulite. The responsiveness and cushioning under your feet is the same as in slimming shoes, and you will be surprised to find that your feet are much less tired by the end of the day than in regular shoes. This "simplified" version is especially recommended for older people. Also, such a more stable option is chosen by dentists and surgeons.

Narrower in terms of the breadth of therapeutic effects of the presented models is

MASSAGE SHOES flat sole. There are many options for massage shoes. The difference between massage shoes under the ZDRAVOBUV brand from analogues is the patented technology of double massage ledges of different heights. Acting at the same time as acupuncture and acupressure, this type of insole instantly relieves fatigue and pain, and swelling quickly subsides. The main difference from the two previous categories is the absence of a multifunctional, springy, balancing and corrective sole, and therefore the range of its therapeutic and prophylactic effects is narrower. However, to some extent, it also serves as a prevention and treatment of flat feet, varicose veins, circulatory and lymphatic disorders, helps to recover from strokes, injuries, fractures, and joint contractures.

HEALTH SHOE is an indispensable means of quickly relieving fatigue, pain, swelling, unloading the feet for those who spend a lot of time on their feet - for sellers, dentists, surgeons, hairdressers, traffic police officers and all those who wear heels.

It is especially recommended for all teenagers in the period of growth for the formation of the correct posture and foot. Useful after removing the plaster or the Ilizarov apparatus. All effective treatment methods are usually unpleasant and cause, if not pain, then discomfort for sure. HEALTH FOOTWEAR, on the other hand, has a therapeutic and prophylactic effect, causing only pleasant sensations - fatigue, pain, "bursting" of veins, cast-iron legs syndrome quickly disappear.

For those who choose a way to prevent or cure flat feet, these shoes are simply indispensable. Muscle activity is practically not felt, due to the correct, even distribution of the load simultaneously on all muscles of the body. After 5-10 minutes of using ZDRAVOSHOE, a person feels more alert, rested, and at the same time more relaxed. Thanks to the cushioning, the feet and spine relax, and the load on the joints is reduced. Replaces the simulator and massager. Can be worn at home and outdoors. Running is prohibited.

A bit of medicine
Orthopedists argue that the human musculoskeletal system is designed to walk barefoot on uneven, pliable surfaces like the ground, and that health is greatly affected by the way we walk. This theory is substantiated and confirmed by many scientific research. Sidewalks, floors and other flat hard surfaces, tight shoes, shoes with heels, have a negative impact on our bones, organs and muscles. These surfaces, day after day, force only a certain, limited set of muscles to work, making daily repetitive stereotyped movements, and the rest of the important muscles do not receive the load laid down by nature, because of this they lose their function, atrophy.
Armed with theory, experts in practice have created health shoes with many useful properties, which skillfully recreates the effects of walking barefoot on soft, uneven ground, naturally, as nature intended. It evokes a pleasant feeling, reminiscent of walking on a sandy beach and sea edge, overcoming the slight resistance of water and sand.

HOW IT WORKS:
HEALTH SHOE has a healing effect due to the combination of 2 parts:SOLESAndINSOLE.

SOLE has 3 main functions:

1. Balancing function
The sole has rounded edges, thickening in the middle, which creates instability underfoot. This ensures that the abandoned, “forgotten” muscles of the legs, waist, abdominals and back, left out of work when walking on flat hard surfaces, i.e. all the muscles involved in upright walking begin to perform the balancing, contracting and stretching movements intended by nature. These activated muscles reduce the load on the joints and spine, each "turned on" muscle increases energy consumption - burns fat, as with intense physical activity.

2. Cushioning function
Due to the unique shape and special material of the sole, the shoes perform the same function as the springs in the car - the sole gently springs under the feet, takes on the load, protecting the joints and spine from wear, maintaining and restoring the flexibility and mobility of the bag-ligamentous apparatus of the foot. The constant wearing of such shoes is the prevention of arthritis, arthrosis, and other diseases of the musculoskeletal system and posture disorders.

3. Corrective function
The special configuration of the sole, due to which the position of the foot changes, shifts the center of gravity, makes the musculoskeletal system work differently, improving the biomechanics of gait and posture. A thickening in the front or in the middle of the sole makes stooping impossible. With regular use of these shoes, the muscular corset "remembers" correct posture and keeps it even without shoes.

MASSAGE INSOLE
with soft spikes and bumps, it usefully imitates walking barefoot on sand and pebbles, actively massages the foot, affects reflex zones like acupuncture or acupressure. This enhances blood circulation, lymphatic drainage and metabolism throughout the body - from the capillaries to the vessels of the brain, contributing to the burning of fats, the removal of toxins and toxins. Improves intestinal motility, helps to restore the lost sensitivity of various parts of the body. The insole brings all the benefits that a full-fledged foot massage gives: instantly relieves fatigue, eliminates swelling, brings relief from pain of various etiologies, incl. with headache, pain in the joints, back, legs, soothes nervous system. Massage stimulates work internal organs, this leads to tissue renewal, saturation of the body with oxygen.

The combination of these features gives the world's only THERAPEUTIC shoes, leads to results unique in breadth, eliminates the negative effects of hard flat surfaces, "wrong shoes", shoes with heels. To one degree or another, it is the prevention and treatment of many diseases associated with impaired blood circulation, lymph flow, weak muscle activity, and excess weight.
