Has anyone heard of grounding shoes?

Posted by mikaylar @mikaylar, 4 days ago

A friend has a pair of these sneakers that help her neuropathy, back and feet. They are cheap and can be ordered online.

The only grounding I have heard of is taking off shoes and standing on grass/ground. There are issues when we only where rubber soles all day/everyday.

There are shoes that help people walk more comfortably with neuropathy pain but I haven’t heard of grounding shoes. I would rather go outside and take my shoes off and stand in the grass for free! 😉

Yes, but with the sneakers, you can wear them all day.

You definitely want to do your research on the shoes and companies that sell them. I have read about some scams and difficulties with returns/refunds.

Look for Barefoot Shoes on Amazon. Grounded Footwear is one of many brands that work the same way to benefit neuropathy.

A friend of mine bought a grounding-mat a few months ago and says it has had no effect on him. I am not surprised.

I have found that crocs help my feet. I can walk a lot further when I’m wearing them.
