To the person who had to give up their shoes because of knee pain – I have a disease in my leg that involves the knee – it is the reason I wear the shoes. You may have not had them adjusted correctly or something else is going on. These shoes do help knee pain and have been a godsend to me.

Andrew – I am glad that you do not know what real pain is, but when you or a loved one are eventually faced with it, you do not accept it and go on as if nothing is wrong. That is not a possibility. You see real pain stops you dead in your tracks and you have to find ways to lesson it in order to survive. You see pain does kill – suicide, and if your body is in constant pain your immune system can become taxed and less able to fight off infection. I know – I have almost died twice in the last six months because pain has impaired my immune system. Please do not impose your immaturity and shortsightedness on everyone else by posting such things as this “article” on the internet. In the end, you are simply showing your lack of compassion for others. Remember the Golden Rule.

As for everyone else – I live – literally- by my Z-Coils. I get lots of comments and if they are from people who truly want to understand, I gladly explain all about the shoes. If you are wanting to make fun of me – well my family and I have answers for you as well – such as we want to be kangaroos as we go bouncing off together.

Z-coil shoes have helped thousands of people, which is apparent not only from all the positive comments stated here but also from the thousands of testimonials on their website (http://www.zcoil.com/testimonials.cfm). The shoes really don’t look that silly on a person, which you can also see on their website.

I first saw z-coils at my doctor’s office, where it almost seemed like everyone in the building had a pair! When I asked my doctor about them he said they reduced the impact of each step. My mother has not walked on her own in over 5 years because of arthritis and other pains in her knees and back. My mother and I researched the shoes and we were brought to tears by many of the testimonials from people in her same situation.

Although the closest store was over 100 miles away, we were confident the day trip would be beneficial. Everyone at the store was very helpful and understanding of her condition. They knew exactly how to fit the shoes to help my mother’s specific problems. Once they had them laced up (the Freedoms in black), I watched as they helped my mother stand up. She smiled at me and took her first step on her own in over 5 years. We both started crying as she walked towards me. She was walking so well (and pain free, I might add), she didn’t even want to take her walker home! We have since donated it.

Shortly after, my mother did, IN FACT, go for an interview in her coils – and she was hired! She has been back in the workforce now for over 3 months and we both feel she has really gotten her life back because of z-coil.

So, Mr. Liszewski, please; next time you want to write an article ANYWHERE, be sure you know what you are talking about so as to not risk looking ignorant.
