These great sandals were designed for pedicures and are sturdy and comfortable enough for everyday wear. The sandals are perfect for keeping your toenail polish from smudging or smearing. They are stylish and can even be helpful to your posture and health.
These sandals were designed so that they could be put on right before the toenails were polished, polish the toenails and the person could leave the spa or salon immediately, getting on with their day and giving their toenails plenty of time to properly dry. Letting the polish dry completely for two to three hours in the sandals kept the toenail polish lustrous for weeks.
As the sandals received more recognition, it was brought to the inventors' attention that Spread 'ems were very healthy for the feet and therefore the whole body. The Omadawn Yoga Center in Seal Beach, California pointed out that students are taught to spread their toes during yoga practice to increase a firm sense of balance and grounding. By wearing these sandals and keeping the toes spread a little, one can maintain that same sense of balance and improved stance.
After examining the sandal and doing some research, the above information was confirmed by a Doctor of Osteopathic Medicine. He states that the toe separators allow a modified tracking plane at the metatarsophlangeal joint. This alteration allows the constant mechanical stress of weight bearing and ambulation to be evenly shifted along the joint, improving body alignment and preventing hip and back problems. He believes that the sandal would be an excellent aid for those who suffer from osteo-arthritis of the feet. By spreading the toes, the sandal would take the loading stresses away from the afflicted area, retard the degeneration of the cartilaginous elements in the joint and allow patients with this illness to participate in exercise to improve their condition.
Several podiatrists who have ordered the sandal for their patients have also confirmed that the sandals are wonderful for balance, body alignment, improved posture and a great aid for the prevention or relief of hip and back problems.
The sandals are also stylish and comfortable enough for everyday wear. They leave the toes exposed to show off your toe rings and they're light and completely water resistant.
