Desperation!
I have fibromyalgia and M.E which affects my feet adversely and I heard through a friend that a mother at the school gates had found some relief from fibro feet with vibram five fingers.
1. Why do you wear Vibram FiveFingers?
Desperation. I was at the point of chewing my feet off at the end of a work day in my shop, despite wearing the squishy sliders and any sort of shoe that promised ultimate comfort!
Well it wasn’t an easy transition but I persevered and the results were amazing… my feet were thanking me for swapping to the five fingers.
However the response from others was amazing lol. Some people literally stopped and stared at my feet others expressed their interest in trying the shoes … it was almost like having alien feet !
I took the time to explain the comfort and concept behind the shoes and so many people asked where I bought them, it was amazing. So many people were suffering from pain in their feet but didn’t know how to address it!
My main moment was when my cousin, who battles Cancer, saw them and her husband decided they would help her.
We are now passing our good feet treatment onto our next generation as our grandchildren are wearing bare feet baby shoes to ensure their feet are healthy for their future.
Thank you Barefoot Junkie for your dedication to making our lives better one step at a time, Cayte
