New Slippers with Lift

I've just bought these new slippers, which have the toes set higher than the heel.  The idea is that they stretch and exercise your leg muscles.  High heels shorten the tendons at the back of the ankles and sitting down at desks all the time adds to the effect.

I have often wanted to stretch my feet so that the toes are held upwards.  I don't do it for long, as I am notoriously lazy and any exercise is like hard work man.

Now with my new space-agie looking slippers I get to exercise without trying!  How good is that eh?

They are a bit expensive at £28.00, but these are no ordinary slippers/sandals.

As I've only just started using them, I will see whether I get fed up of the unusual feeling.  The insoles also have little bumps so that they massage your soles at the same time.  This feels strange and hurts a bit.  I am hoping that this is temporary and that it is because I have tension in those parts.  I have trained in reflexology, so understand how tension in the feet affects the rest of the body.  I am hoping that after a while I will notice some benefits and be able to report back to you.  They sound good in theory and feel OK if not odd in practice.  I'll let you know.

If you get yourself some, please let Daxon know how you found out about them.  (No I'm not on the books), and let me know what you think.

I would not recommend going outside in these slippers or sandals as they are called.  I think it might be a bit dangerous and you could fall over easily.  Anyway, around the house is just enough for a daily workout, don't you think?
