Z-CoiL® Testimonial of the Month

Sometime back I submitted a testimonial about Z-CoiL footwear, after two months of use and the results were astounding! It has now been seven months and I'm back again to express how words cannot adequately describe this life-changing product!
 
I had suffered for 3-4 years with heel spurs on either side of my left foot, Achilles tendonitis and severe swelling, I spent $2,000 - $3,000 on podiatrists and related treatments. I was almost totally incapacitated and in constant debilitating pain…my life was miserable and I had practically given up hope of ever being able to walk normally again. A diabetic friend of mine told me about these unusual shoes and I thought, “What have I got to lose?”
 
And lose I have!! Today I am completely pain free, walking like a normal human being. Not only have I lost the pain, but also 25 lbs because I am able to walk normally again! Before, I was using a power chair, but no more!I I cannot say enough about these unusual shoes! It is truly amazing that no other shoe I have tried has measured up to Z-CoiL. My only regret was not finding them before I spent so much money on doctors, treatments, and other shoes!
 
My podiatrist never mentioned Z-CoiL to me, and I can understand why – your shoes could put them out of business! Believe me they WORK!!!

I am a surgical nurse; on my feet all day and carrying lots of extra weight. I have had chronic bilateral plantar fasciitis for about 3 years. I was treated by 3 different doctors and went through it all... wraps, injections, meds, exercises, orthotics, etc. I finally had surgery on one leg (gastrocnemius recession to lengthen the calf muscle that was contracting the foot and pulling the fascia) and was supposed to do the other leg soon after. However, I got multiple blood clots from the first surgery and had to put the second one off for 6 months.

I desperately searched for something to give me some relief. I found Z-CoiL shoes online and went to check them out. I was immediately hooked!!

They are the most wonderful shoes I have ever had on my feet! I used to be an avid Birkenstock fan, but I have been converted! The minute I put them on, I could walk more easily and had great pain relief. After a couple of weeks, I was completely sold on my Z-CoiL shoes. It's amazing how much better I walk and how great my feet feel. I do wear my orthotics in my Z-CoiL shoes and the retailer even adjusted them so that I don't walk on the outsides of my heels anymore.

I used to come home from work every day and collapse in the recliner with ice packs and foot massagers. Now I come home and walk the dog! They are also great conversation starters; I have someone ask me about my Z-CoiLs pretty much every day. I am quite the spokesperson for Z-CoiL shoes!

By the way, I am NOT having my second surgery, but I AM buying my second pair of Z-CoiL shoes!

Thank you, Z-CoiL!

This will be to date, the single most important document / recommendation I have ever written. I underwent brain surgery for a ruptured basal artery aneurysm in 1986. The medication necessary to keep me alive caused a deteriorating bone disease which resulted in my needing bi-lateral total hip replacements. I have subsequently had 4 additional total hip revisions along with two other hip surgeries, making a total of 8 surgeries from 1981 -2001. I was diagnosed with deteriorating disc disease in my back and neck in 2000, both of which require surgery. In early 2009 I was diagnosed with neuropathy in both legs. I have been in indescribable pain from my neck to the bottom of my feet and had reached my breaking point. I didn’t think I could go on like this anymore. I was tired of drugs that didn’t work and the disabling effects that kept me from enjoying my children and 4 beautiful grandchildren. I am 53 years old and had become housebound and yet the pain was still too much to bear. From my heart I must honestly say that before I decided to end it all, I prayed one more prayer.

Today, July 16, 2009, the miracle I prayed for has come to be. I walked into the Z-CoiL footwear store in Avon, Indiana. I was lovingly and warmly greeted by the store owner Stefanie Davis. I must confess that I was not overly enthusiastic and really wasn’t sure I even wanted to go through the whole story again with anyone! She had a professional, kind demeanor and knew what and how to ask what my needs were. I was indeed skeptical. I found myself opening up to one of the most beautiful people I have ever met in my life, and then it happened. I tried on a pair of the Z-CoiL shoes and I immediately felt relief. After a few tweaks, I was walking tall, picking up my feet and crying uncontrollably. I would have paid $2,000.00 for these shoes. I once again have hope! The pain started dissipating immediately and I knew I could go on. Unless you experience this type of pain, it can never be fully characterized. There are not enough words.
My miracle was made complete by then meeting Stephanie J. Stephanie is also a product specialist and again, one of the most beautiful people I have ever met. They truly cared about me - sincerely. I have NEVER received this type of customer service; real, genuine, honest, caring, loving, knowledgeable and downright fabulous. Again, there are not enough words. I will never be able to thank each of you enough. I just pray that God will bless you two over-flowingly as he has me. I love you, my dear (new / old) friends!!!!
To all that will walk in this door - I am so very happy for you. Your life is about to change and it will definitely be for the better. Thank you, Z-CoiL.

After two foot surgeries and severe plantar fasciitis, I was getting closer and closer to yet another foot surgery. A year of appointments with two separate podiatrists, new prescription shoe orthotics (adjusted twice), at least a dozen different pairs of shoes (always searching for the "perfect" one), physical therapy, chiropractic therapy, ultra-sound therapy, and two cortisone shots, I was ready to give up. The constant pain was making my world shrink around me. I had to seriously think before I walked across the room, "Will this be worth it?" The anti-inflammatory drugs I had been taking for ten years were destroying my liver and my left leg was starting to atrophy from tentative walking on my painful left foot.

Following a trip to New England with my husband and daughter, I resigned myself to the fact that the pain was going to become a regular part of my life. That trip solidified how much I was missing. I had to wait in the hotel while they walked the Freedom Trail and had a drink in the famous bar, Cheers.

When we returned from our trip, I saw Z-CoiL shoes on a store clerk and decided to try them. If they didn't work, I would know that I had tried everything else before another surgery. Within the first week, my feet stopped hurting.

At first, I was embarrassed to wear them. They don't look like your average shoe. I frequently get stopped by people who want to know all about them. I am a walking commercial in support of these shoes and am happy to tell my story to anyone who asks.

It's been several months now and I can honestly say that these shoes have saved my life. I have cut the anti-inflammatory drugs by half, my liver function is fine, and my thought processes are clearer. I'm not living with constant pain and I have regained the strength in my left leg. I no longer have to wear my orthotics.

While I wear my Z-CoiL shoes most of the time, I can switch to some of my other shoes for an evening out or for church. Thank you for these wonderful shoes.

I am indeed a fan and an evangelist of Z-CoiL shoes! I have barely taken them off since buying them in July. They are so comfortable! It's like walking on grass, barefoot, and I feel I have much more stamina. They cushion you from the exhaustion of everyday life. Everywhere I go I get asked about them and complimented about their look. Some find them a source of mirth, but I'm the last one laughing 'cos they don't know how blissfully comfortable they are. I am a true Z-CoiL die hard.

I would like to express how much Z-CoiL shoes have improved and helped many areas in my life. I was hit by a car when I was 11 years old; since then I have suffered a lot of lower back pain, and have had a major operation and several procedures performed on my upper and lower back. Four years ago I was introduced to this fabulous shoe. I have not worn another brand of shoe since, and am now walking without the assistance of a walker. I am more active and more healthy then I was four years ago. I know several nurses who have also received comfort from using Z-CoiL shoes. The benefits are countless for me! Thank you for your incredible product; it does help and can be rated over NIKE in my books!

I purchased my first pair of Z-CoiL shoes in 2003 and my second pair in 2005. I am a nurse, and I have arthritis in my knees. Before wearing Z-CoiL shoes I would experience pain after work. Wearing Z-CoiL shoes helped me tremendously! If I had a dime for every informational I have given regarding the shoes, I would have a new pair! After wearing Z-CoiL shoes to work for 5 years, I had tried a pair of (good) sneakers from a different brand, but I experienced PAIN! I believe Z-CoiL shoes are the best for pain relief for anyone with arthritic pain and for those whose jobs require them to constantly be on their feet. Thank you, founder of Z-CoiL!

Over five years ago, I was anticipating having to use wheelchair because of my Plantar Fasciitis, flat feet, super flexible ankles, and massive pain in both my feet and back. I could only be on my feet for an hour before pain forced me to sit. I had begun to hunch over just to compensate for the pain. I had tried many shoe inserts but with very little relief. I was working full time on cement floors teaching music. On Wednesday, before Thanksgiving, I got my first pair of Z-Coil shoes. On that Friday I went shopping with my daughter for 10 hours with very little pain by the end of the day! I never went back to any other shoes for over four years. I now own six pair of Z-CoiL shoes and they are all I wear. My favorite style is the hiking boot. They give my ankles the best support for those uneven surfaces. Now, I can even wear other shoes for several hours but I always go back to my Z-CoiL shoes. I have traveled to many areas of the world including the Mediterranean and The Panama Canal. Everywhere I go people ask about my Z-CoiL shoes. Once every two years I return to my foot doctor to get my inserts rebuilt but I still have my first pair of Z-CoiL Shoes and still love them. Because of the quality construction, they are holding up very well. In Rome I even crossed through two feet of rushing water and soaked my boots. They dried out overnight and are just fine. I have saved a lot of money on Doctor bills and avoided surgeries on my feet thanks to Z-CoiL. The best thing of all is NO MORE PAIN! Thank you so very much.

I had back surgery in 2001 and was pain free for one year after the surgery. I was in pain from 2002 until 2008, which is when I discovered Z-CoiL shoes. I was at a hospital when I saw a nurse with a pair of Z-CoiL shoes on, she told me she was on her feet up to 12 hours a day and no longer had back pain. I went online, read up on the Z-CoiL brand and bought a pair of work boots. This is the best I’ve felt since my surgery back in 2001. I’m on my feet all day (I’m in the security department at a high school) and at the end of the day since I’ve been wearing my Z-CoiL shoes, I no longer have pain. Just try a pair you will not regret it!!!!

It is this simple! Before I started wearing my Z-CoiL shoes, I had problems with my feet, knees and lower back from sports-related injuries. I have been pain-free and no more trips to the doctor! The excellent results were immediate! Z-CoiL shoes are the best thing I could have done for my body, PERIOD!

  As a child I suffered from fallen arches. I had to wear inserts and learn to walk differently. In these later years my feet were constantly giving me trouble. I had a lot of pain in my right foot and also had a lot of lower back pain. Much money was spent on Chiropractors . . . who did not always help.

At the insistence of my husband, I bought a pair of Z-CoiL shoes and began wearing them. Last October we traveled to Germany and Denmark, and I was able to walk all over the cities sightseeing, often on cobblestones! I could not have done that in regular shoes. It was amazing. You should have seen the looks on the airport security people when they inspected our Z-CoiL shoes! These shoes have made a difference in my life. I have much less lower back trouble and I am able to walk without pain. Thank you, Z-CoiL!

I currently work at Wal-Mart and am on my feet the entire time I am on the clock. The floor of Wal-Mart is basically a big concrete slab with no cushion. Over the course of about six months my feet began hurting, especially in the Achilles tendon area, so I bought a walk monitor to measure the distance I walked each day. Turns out I averaged nine miles a day of walking in a normal eight- hour shift! It made sense to me why I had foot pain now, and I began researching a solution to stop the pain in my Achilles tendon and prevent unhealthy walking in the future.

I found the Z-CoiL website and went to the store on Forestbrook in Arlington. I came home with a pair of Z-CoiL Sandia shoes. I have been wearing Z-CoiL shoes now for two months and never have any pain when I wear them for eight hours or more!

I tried my old shoes, which are my favorite pair of shoes I have been wearing four years now, just to see if Z-CoiL was actually working and preventing the pain. After four hours of walking my Achilles tendon was killing me again, and it hurt the next two days. I wear Z-CoiL shoes every day now, whether at work or just everyday life and never have any kind of foot pain.

I recommend them to anyone looking for a solution to tasks involving continuous walking or impact-related tasks. Nearly every employee at my Wal-Mart complains about their feet hurting, which I quickly respond to by showing them my Z-CoiL shoes and telling them about how my walking problems were eliminated and are now being prevented!

My life has been changed because of Z-CoiL shoes. I had polio when I was two years old and wear a brace on my right leg. Before Z-CoiL, I could walk only a short distance (one or two blocks). Standing in line was excruciatingly painful. My legs and back would ache at night after being on them all day. I couldn't take walks with my husband. I dreaded shopping.

All that changed four years ago when I started wearing Z-CoiL shoes. I take 20-30 minute walks in the park near my home two to three times a week. My pain has significantly decreased. Standing at parties is more manageable. I still hate shopping, but that is for other reasons. My niece calls them my "Tigger" shoes (Winnie-the-Pooh). I call them my dancing shoes.
