"I immediately put them on and took a walk, completely pain free instantly."

Here is my MBT story: I bought the sandals 2 years ago after acl replacement surgery.
I quickly discovered re-hab was much improved by wearing the shoes, and could walk the mile loop around my neighborhood quickly and pain free. I wore them everywhere. Then winter came, I recovered, they drifted to the back of my closet and were forgotten since I was pain free.

Six months ago I developed chronic achilles tendonitus from running in deep sand. I put off going to the Doctor because I didn't want him to tell me to stop exercising, which I admit, I am addicted to. After the Dr. appt., I was sent to six weeks of physical therapy which included painful soft tissue massage and exercises to strengthen the ankle area. Just as I began to feel progress, the pain would flair back up and I would hobble around all day. Finally, I was cleaning my closet when a light bulb flicked on in my brain at the site of my old friends, MBTs. I immediately put them on and took a walk, completely pain free instantly. I haven't worn anything since. My therapist looked at the shoes with great skepticism, but his intern actually wrote down the name of the shoes and is determined to research online. Hopefully the pain will begin to subside and I can wear my flip flops again, but until that day, nothing else will go on my feet.

Thanks!

"I am now changing shape as well as losing weight"

I searched for my nearest supplier and went out and bought some MBT's. I have had them for one week now and WOW! Fantastic. I have been a member of Slimming World for several months and have been finding it difficult to lose weight. I am not very good and motivating myself to exercise as I am always having back trouble and had an operation to remove a severe Mortons Neuroma. Since buying my MBT's I have been out walking every day, comfortably. I am now changing shape as well as losing weight. I wish I had bought them some time ago. I might not have to visit my chiropractor quite so often now either.

Thank you very much for MBT's!!

"MBT shoes are really everything they are made out to be"

MBT shoes are really everything they are made out to be. I purchased a pair the other day with much misgivings, as I never usually spend so much money on shoes and I am very sceptical about these sort of things with so much publicity. However, being a sufferer of heel pain and knee problems plus I have never stood up straight I was amazed at how comfortable they were. I traipsed round several National Trust Houses and did a lot of cliff walking in Cornwall. The shoes were fantastic. I felt like I was walking on air. I will certainly buy a pair of sandals for the summer.

Many thanks

"If MBT ever needs a spokes person I'm your man."

I am a 350 pound, 55 year old man, that is on his feet for most of the day. I am a registered nurse and work in the operating room. I also, run my own catering business. I have had neck, shoulder, back. hip, knee, and foot pain for years. I was encouraged to try a pair of MBT shoes from my shoe sales professional. He told me to walk a short block from the store and back. WOW! All the pain in my shoulders went away. My neck was instantly better. It took only a day of ware to help my back. And now, after a week, my knees don't hurt at all. Thank you for the shoe. I was almost going to retire for good, because I could not continue to stand at the OR table, or do my catering without a day or two of harsh pain.

If MBT ever needs a spokes person I'm your man.

Regards

"Never have aching or sore feet, considering I have a severe Morton's Neuroma in my left foot"

I love my Black MBT sport shoes. I have been wearing them since last September. I am on my feet 7 hrs per day and never have aching or sore feet, considering I have a severe Morton's Neuroma in my left foot. This should have been operated on some months ago but since wearing MBTs I hardly notice that I have it. Before I started wearing them my foot used to go numb and had a really bad burning sensation no matter what shoes I wore. I have postponed the operation as I feel I can carry on with my life without having it.

Regards

"They are what I would call the 'natural painkiller'

Five years ago I had a horse riding accident, which left me in pain 24 hours a day. Sometimes the pain was worse than others but it was always there - restricting, degrading and destroying my every day life and confidence. Then the MBT's found me... they are what I would call the "natural painkiller" .

This Footwear stopped me getting rid of Molly, my German Shepherd dog. Because my back was too sore to walk her and I couldn't hold her when she pulled on the leash. I was lead to believe that "nothing could be done" regarding the continuous pain and that was that... But that was WRONG!

When I first got my MBTs, after 2 minutes of wearing them, they put my back into spasms. I figured they were targeting the proper muscles, so through time, belief and practise I was able to wear them for long durations of time with no pain. I am now able to walk without pain and I have also regained my overall strength so that I can actually hold my dog when she pulls. She's happy, I'm happy and my friends are happy because I don't moan half as much! I am doing things that I couldn't do before and... I'm pain free! I'm not sure I understand in scientific terms what exactly MBTs are doing to the way I walk but I don't care about that - so long as I am free from pain!!

MBTs have given me HOPE. Hope that I don't have to suffer anymore, hope that I don't need medication to feel "normal" . Hope that I can live my life like a 25 year old should and hope that there's always a way no matter what!

Thank you!

"They are by far the best pair of shoes I have ever invested in"

The MBTs are truly amazing. They are by far the best pair of shoes I have ever invested in. I fracture the last vertebra (L-5) in my back in a vehicle accident over ten years ago. Since then I have been plagued with chronic lower back pain. I also work in a hospital and find myself some days standing in the operating room for 3-4 hours and other days attending to patients in a clinic.

I have been wearing the MBTs to work for about a month now and my back pain is gone. They are so wonderful I am ready to buy a pair of sandals and a second pair to run it.
It is money well spent.

Thank You.

I can't think anyone anywhere would get better after sales treatment

I want to say how delighted and impressed I am with your response. The replacement MBTs arrived safely this morning. I can't think that anyone anywhere would get better after sales treatment. I can now look forward to many more miles of walking. I was so impressed with the MBT's that I persuaded my sister to buy some and she is now a convert. My mother, aged 75, is also going to buy some.

Many thanks indeed. Your treatment of customers is as good as the MBTs themselves.

Best wishes.

"Thank you thank you thank you..."

I have a slipped disk which has stabalised but was still casuing Sciatic pain. I got the MBTs just to see if they would offer some relief and to my amazement they have. I am pain free for 3 months now. The pain went away within one day of weraing them. I now wear them practically every day and know that if I wear flat shoes that I am going to be uncomfortable. MBTs have given me a new lease of pain free life.
My back no longer hurts, knee pain is gone and tightness in my hamstrings is gone completely. As an added bonus my legs have toned up and all cellulite had disappeared. I couldn't recommend them highly enough.
Regards,

"I can't tell you how liberating this is"

I want to to thank MBT for their fantastic product. I have arthritis in both feet and have even had a joint replacement in one, but I still could not walk without pain. As soon as I put on my MBTs it was like magic - I can now walk for miles without pain. I can't tell you how liberating this is. Thank you!

several month later...

By the way, I am about to buy my 5th pair of MBTs. Occasionally I try wearing ordinary shoes but after an hour or two I go back to MBTs. Nothing else works for me. How likely is it that you will develop a high-leg boot for women? That would complete my wardrobe!

One very satisfied customer

"wearing the MBTs was much kinder on my feet"

I would like to offer some feedback although I have only tried on the MBTs and haven't yet bought them.

I tried the MBTs on in a sports shop, and was surprised to feel a newly planted spring in my step as I paced the room, and walking came to me with much ease. The activity of walking itself became more enjoyable, and I felt my energy levels recharged. At 16 years old I have no injuries or pains, but was delighted to experience the sensation of what felt like walking on air. Having replaced the MBTs on the stand after my trying-on session, and leaving the shop, I immediately noticed how I could feel the hardness of the ground on the soles of my feet, something I hadn't noticed before. I therefore surmised that wearing the MBTs was much kinder on my feet, and I plan to buy some in the near future

"All of the aching, burning, spraining and straining has disappeared"

I am so grateful for the invention of MBTs! I'm only 50 years old, but for the past 3 years my foot pain continually increased, despite orthotics, massage, reflexology, accupuncture, exercises, etc. I thought I was going to have to get a scooter to get around, as I was becoming housebound. Two months ago I could only take tiny, slow steps, and only walk about 10 minutes at a time. After buying MBT sandals at Foot Solutions in Vancouver, BC - I experienced a miracle! Now I have absolutely normal feet! All of the aching, burning, spraining and straining has disappeared.
THANK YOU!

"my back has also not bothered me since wearing your MBTs"

I have a restaurant in Pennsylvania and work on tile floors hours weekly. I was going to a podiatrist monthly and wearing orthodics. My feet were screaming at me every morning not to get out of bed and put them through another day of agony. My shoe salesperson called me one day and told me about these new MBTs they just got in and that I should try them....I did. I now have 4 pairs of MBTs and plan to buy 2 more in the fall. My feet are not perfect but my career is back on track and my back has also not bothered me since wearing MBTs....Thank You.

"we often go walking as it is definitely the best physiotherapy for her"

My wife who is 34 years old has the rare form of distal muscular dystrophy affecting lower arms and legs which in turn has determined her very awkward walking style. She has had this for many years and it leaves her with severe back pains every time we go shopping or walking for more than 10 minutes. Walking also seemed to bring on a tightening of the muscles around the chest with the severe back pains and which left her struggling to breathe and in great pain. We would also need to visit the doctor every 2 or 3 weeks for pain killing injections and pills to help control the pain. It also left her very insecure and lacking in the desire to go out and the confidence whenever we went out. Last year whilst visiting another chiropractor who seemed to be helping at last we discovered the MBTs, in fact we were recommended to these MBTs by him as a supplement to his treatment. One year on and my wife's whole character has changed, her walking is now nearer to normal and the frequency of back pain has reduced very dramatically and we often go walking as it is definitely the best physiotherapy for her. My wife now has four pairs of MBTs and one small observation we discuss with other people who attend training put on by our local shoe shop, when can we expect to see something a little more fashionable.

Thanks and regards for all the help, the website is great.

"They are the most wonderful thing for my 3 times cut into spine."

Once the MBTs were on my feet, I knew I had to have them. They are the most wonderful thing for my 3 times cut into spine. They take away all my spinal pain from walking.

I want to add a pair of Sandals to my shoe wardrobe but I am so vain and they are so klutsy looking, that I would not wear them. Please, I beg you, design an attractive pair of women's sandals. I will be eternally grateful.

"I can stand on my feet for 12 hours and I still feel comfortable"

Dear All at MBT,

My husband and I have looked at, tried on and almost have worn the first set of MBT sandals for the past 4 weeks, of course I had sore muscles, but this is proof of how well these MBT "gyms" work for the whole body.

We are 60 respectively 63 years old. My husband was contemplating surgery on his C-spine due to arthritis and bad posture, special gymnastics and the MBTs have improved the situation imesurably, he had a replacement of the humerous/shoulder joint a few months ago and the improved posture has helped very much to speed up the healing in that area.

My sciatic pain has gone away almost immediately and I don't need to wear my insoles for halux anymore, I can stand on my feet for 12 hours and I still feel comfortable.

In the meantime I have printed out and passed on the information of MBT to everyone of whom I knew they have problems and many are very interested and are going to purchase.

It would be good to have your site in German language as well, is that possible? it is so much more informative than all the German Sites I have been able to look through.

With best Regards

"these MBTs have given me a fitter and happier future"

Dear Madam

I am writing to thank you for supplying me with a pair of white sports MBTs, their beneficial effect on my increasingly disaling knee pain has been little short of miraculous.

I have been a GP for 30 years and recently retired on health grounds having needed heart surgery and walking was to be the mainstay of my fitness programme. However over the last 4 months both knees have become stiff, painful and increasingly swollen. Taking prescribed anti inflammatories, diclofenac, made the pain bearable and knee supports made little or no difference. Within a couple of hours of wearing these trainers the pain started to disappear and now only a week later I am off all painkilling drugs and doing 15 minutes brisk treadmill walking with no bother at all. As an older and supposedly worldly wise GP I am a natural sceptic but I offer this unsolicited praise because I am so surprised and pleased by the fact that these MBTs have given me a fitter and happier future. Thank you.

"These MBTs are worth every cent!"

I am an admitted shoe freak and was in the shoe business for many years. I bought a pair of MBTs last month and can not tell you how much they have improved my back and legs. I talk about this brand so much that people ask me if I am a sales rep !!
I wish the styling was a bit more versatile but I don't really care!!!These MBTs are worth every cent! Thank you.

"I feel like a 'missionary' for MBT now"

I had a massive car accident 13 years ago and eventually recovered from all the injuries, although I still had occasional trouble with one of my knees - I ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament. About 4 years ago, I decided to embark on the Body Control Pilates instructors course (I had taught ballet for many years before my accident.) I travelled to Lincoln to have lessons with Debbie Lynn but I started having trouble with my back. She suggested that I try MBTs that her friend Helge had started bringing into this country.
They gave me back my life!!
They not only helped the muscle imbalance in my back (a left over from my accident) but I have had no more trouble with my knee - so I feel like a 'missionary' for MBT now. I became a trainer soon after I started wearing MBT and decided to sell them at my shop in Nottingham - Harding's Dancewear (we specialise in all types of dancewear) I have had many customers from all over the Midlands some of whom have come back for their 2nd and 3rd pairs!!

"keep up the good work!"

I don't think I have ever contacted a company with 'thanks' for making a product. As a child I was hit by a car and suffered serious back and leg injuries, including nerve damage in the right leg resulting in foot drop and a minor limp. In 2004 I suffered a severe break of the right foot. Years of reduced exercise due to my back injury and improper gait caused me to develop horrible heel spurs. 2004 was a year where I went from 'walking' to being unable to walk more than 20 minutes at a time and unable to stand on a line at the grocery store - I am 34 yrs old and felt like I was 80.

I purchased a pair of the MBT sneakers on the advice of my sister last week and my life has changed. After 6 months of not being able to walk from my bed to the bathroom in the morning without putting on shoes - I walked without shoes yesterday and nearly danced. I stood on line, after just three days of wearing your MBTs, for 20 minutes, and went shopping for 3 hrs with my fiancee.

We leave for Europe in a few days, and for the first time in months I am convinced I will not only enjoy the sights, but walk around the towns to see them from beyond the comfort of the car!!!!!!!!!

Thank you - and keep up the good work!

"No medication can do this for me"

Hello, My name is Pat Liptak and I just recently purchased a pair of MBTs. I am writing this to let you know how they have changed my life. I will give you a little history:
I am the Director of an Animal Control Agency for the City of Milford in CT. US. I have been here for 19 years. I have had surgery on both of my knees and my left hip due to various injuries. My job is very physical. I was in constant pain for the last 4 years. I have medication for the pain but use it sparingly. Most of the time I am just miserable. I saw the MBTs in a catalogue. It sounded too good to be true, so I went on the website and read more about the MBT technology. My profession is notoriously underpaid and the MBTs are very expensive, but I have tried everything else so I felt they were worth a try. I was not at all prepared for the result. When I wear the MBTs my pain level is moderate to none. No medication can do this for me. I feel like a new person. Younger and more agile. I have told others about this and they too have purchased the MBTs with similar results. I just wanted to say thank you and God Bless whoever designed this footwear. Now my only problem is trying to save up the money to buy a pair of sandals for the summer.

"I feel 20 again!"

These MBTs are beyond amazing. I have two pairs (one indoor and one outdoor) of the high sole sport MBTs. They make my entire body feel great. I'm 51 and have numerous joint aches and pains when I don't wear them, but when I do, there is all the difference in the world - I feel 20 again!

PLEASE make more of the high sole styles. These are bound to provide the greatest benefit and are quite easy to get used to wearing.

I can't even find high sole sandals and I had hoped to get some for this summer. I'd also love to have a casual wear high sole style.

What is the reason that there are so many more of the lower sole styles?

"I knew they were having a positive effect"

I wore them for twenty minutes, and in each of those minutes I could feel the muscles in my body reacting to them. Being a therapist I was acutely aware of what was happening to my muscles, my injured knee was aching, but it was the useful type of ache that comes with healing. My ankle joints which were inclined to pronate were actually correcting themselves and my low back was loosing all the tensions that I had so nicely stored up in it.
I knew they were having a positive effect on my entire skeleto-muscular system.

"if they had been available 20 years ago..."

The minute I put on my MBT sandals a few months ago, I realised I was standing properly without my feet turning inwards, with no effort of will involved.
As they actively re-educate my feet, MBT make me able to walk increasingly longer distances and to dance where I used to hobble. I'm sure MBT must prevent foot problems and, if they had been available 20 years ago, I wouldn't have bunions now.
Without exaggeration, MBT have changed my life!

"70% of my ankle and knee pain went immediately"

The greatest news for which I cannot thank you enough is the MBTs! (...)70% of my ankle and knee pain went immediately. Many, many thanks.

"Thank you for such a great pair of MBTs"

... I am fortunate enough to have tried your MBTs, Masai Barfuss Technologies. Having worn them for about 2 months now I am truly a huge fan. I have sold 3 pairs of MBTs to clients of mine who try my MBTs at my studio, then go and purchase their own at Foot Solutions here in Annapolis.

Being a personal trainer, I know the importance of good posture, proper foot care, the importance of exercise and the benefits of MBTs! Being a yoga teacher I know the importance of muscular energy in the legs and the benefit of using muscular energy while standing and walking.

I stand on my legs from 6:00 in the morning until 9:00 in the evening most days. I am familiar with tired legs, aching feet and sore joints. After just days of being in the MBTs my legs did not throb at night when going to bed! What a relief! Just after owning the MBTs for 4 days I went to an amusement park and spent 14 hours 2 days straight in these MBTs and my legs did not hurt and my feet did not ache!! I also suffer from plantar fasciaitis and have to wear orthopedic shoes all the time. Since finding my Masai Barfuss Technologies, all of the shoes I own now cannot compare to the MBTs!

I would like to thank you for making these MBTs available to us! I am truly sold on MBTs and feel so strongly about getting the "word out" I would like to help market MBTs any way I can in this area.

Thank you for such a great pair of MBTs!

"MBT has changed my life"

I have been using MBT since 4 months now from the very first moment, I could feel the effect. I have been using MBT since 3 months now and since then I lost 5 Kilos. With no diet, no other sport, just by walking for an hour with MBT. My back pains are gone, and I can feel and see that my leg and belly muscles have improved.
I still have a little problem with the design of MBT, but I don't care. I can full-heartedly admit that MBT has changed my life, not as much as the birth of my newborn daughter, but much more than any other health or fitness advice I have used before.

"MBT is the best thing I have found for my condition."

I would just like to say how helpful the UK staff have been, particularly Michael. I have suffered from heel pain for several years and tried a variety of orthotic shoe insoles. But the high sole MBT is the best thing I have found for my condition.

Michael spent a good deal of time showing me weaknesses in my walking, and is totally committed to customer satisfaction. It is a shame he is leaving the UK.

"a huge difference to my post baby toning and posture"

I LOVE MY MBT's!!! I have been wearing them for more than three weeks now and am convinced that they are making a huge difference to my post baby toning and posture......

"Thank you so much for taking a lot of pain out of my everyday life"

Hello folks- I've had my MBTs for six months now and don't like wearing anything else on my feet. I am so pleased to be able to walk gracefully again after having been the victim of a hit and run accident which made my left knee joint unstable to say the least.

I like walking now, it's not a chore, even when trailing around the shops at Christmas. I also like the other hidden extras that come with using the MBTs regularly; like having my muscles reshaped for the better, the way my cycle to work is so much easier with stronger legs, the fact that I can balance on one leg without falling over (simple things...) and the strange but pleasing phenomenon of the disappearing cellulite. All girls should wear these if just for that reason. Thank you so much for taking a lot of pain out of my everyday life, and please, please can we have some in ORANGE! (with silver) - or some of the boots in dark brown? You make them and we will buy them!

Many thanks

"Fantastic"

There is only one word to describe your MBT footwear; that is "Fantastic".

Thank you.
