 In a world that's increasingly more stressful, harmony of the body and spirit is becoming more elusive. Through meditation, nutrition, exercise, comfortable clothing and restful surroundings - we can gain a healthier natural lifestyle. Earth technology perfectly complements this by taking the body back to it's natural origins - by teaching and enabling us to stand and move how nature originally intended we should.
Why are Earth shoes good for me?
Man has built a world of concrete and steel that is incompatible with his anatomy. The natural terrain now lies buried beneath this concrete jungle that our cities have evolved into. Earth shoes mimic the action of walking barefoot in the sand and on uneven terrain. The unique shape of the shoe with its negative heel keeps the toes up and the body leaning slightly backwards, the stomach pulled in, and the spine straightened into proper alignment. This re-alignment has now been scientifically proven to produce many health benefits and cure many modern ailments, often caused by walking incorrectly ! Relief from back pain
Many back, neck and joint problems stem from poor posture. The re-alignment of your body achieved by wearing Earth shoes negative heel technology instantly alleviates many of the aches and pains caused by standing incorrectly and over a period of time, works to correct the causes of chronic pain.

Improved muscle tone
Standing incorrectly results in loss of muscle tone in your core inner muscles. Re-aligning your posture allows your core muscles to work as nature intended and over time they will strengthen. Back, tummy, buttock and leg muscles will become firm and toned. As a rather unexpected side effect, it was discovered from customer testimonials that wearing Earth produced a sizeable reduction in cellulite - but I guess you could live with that if pushed :-) Healthy relaxed breathing
