mbt shoes are www.swissmasai.com they take the pressure off your joints, back and stuff. since surgery, i can't wear anything else.
they are like 250 bucks, but the good thing is, they last for years, and you can get them resoled for only 50 bucks... so well worth it, especially since it helps with the pain.
they are mimicking walking in sand...that is where the technology came about. when i first wore them, i was sore...they say to wear them a littl e bit a day to get used to them. but i was sore in the muscles that make you stand up straight...but about after a week, i was good, and am loving them since!!!!!

Default your results

It's really exciting to hear that you've been able to return to a nursing position even 8 hours and that the surgery made that much of a difference (improvement) plus the shoes. I will be looking at the website you posted for the shoes (thanks). I walk quite well without pain, a few miles at a clip now easily but my feet hurt quite a bit. I have fallen arches (flat feet) and depend on supportive shoes while walking tho have had some foot surgery in May and am still have some swelling with long distance walking so wearing TEVA sandels to walk. Going to have right bunion surgery sooner or later and hammer toes taken care of on this foot as well so probably new good walking shoes are in my future tho am glad to have the info~

Thanks for posting about your recovery, sounds good so far! Maria

actually I much prefer the pain I get from stretching to the pain I get from my back, same goes for exercise and acupuncture. In that regard, it is not painfull at all, it feels good.
