Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that can affect communication, behaviour, and social interaction. Its effects vary from person to person and can present challenges in daily life. One of the common effects of ASD relates to sensory processing issues. Autistic individuals may be either hypersensitive or hyposensitive to sensory stimuli, which can lead to discomfort or avoidance of certain sensory experiences.

First of all, we should explain how circulation and blood flow work. The blood circulatory system, also known as the cardiovascular system, comprises the heart and all the blood vessels that run throughout the entire body. Arteries carry blood away from the heart, while the veins transport it back. There are two additional circulatory systems that make up the cardiovascular system: the systemic and pulmonary systems. Systemic circulation is what transports oxygen and nutrient-rich blood through our arteries to our organs, tissues (that includes our muscles) and cells.

Revs® primary design and technology is based on the science of Reflexology. The soles of our footwear contain precisely positioned, soft rubber nodules, of varying heights and widths, designed to match the contours of the feet and stimulate the various reflex points in your foot, the effect of which improves blood flow, boosts lymph and nerve flow and ultimately reduces the symptoms of lower back pain. To add to our reflexology soles, our shoes feature bio-mechanical arch support, cushion comfort and shock absorption to aid correct alignment and posture which will greatly contribute towards fighting and preventing backpain. 

We researched how Reflexology can help Runners and are pleased to present some very positive findings. We believe Revs® should form part of every Runner’s Training Kit.

It can be normal to have some swelling in your legs at the end of the day, particularly if you’ve been sitting or standing for long periods. Immobility and standing for long periods are the two most common causes of oedema in the legs.

Comfort should be the main consideration when choosing shoes, although for most people it’s important that their footwear looks good too. If your feet are painful or unusually shaped you may need to compromise a little on the style, but not with Revs! We’re here to provide footwear that is fashion conscious as well as health-conscious! 

A bunion is a foot condition in which the bone or some tissues are enlarged at the big toe. Bunions can also form at the edge of the little toe. 

A hammertoe is a toe that is contracted at the PIP joint (middle joint in the toe) and can lead to severe pressure and pain. Ligaments and tendons that have tightened cause the toe’s joints to curl downwards.

Headaches affect more than 10 million people each year, they are a very common health complaint. Causes can be sleep deprivation, hormone imbalance or changes, stress, tension, sinusitis, poor diet and too much alcohol, etc. Similar to a reflexology treatment, Revs® reflexology shoes will work your toes, your diaphragm and your glands, all of which are key reflexes to decongest the head and sinus area, and create relaxation.

Insomnia can be one of the most frustrating and debilitating conditions. Lack of sleep affects us in so many ways, physically and mentally. In fact sleep deprivation affects you in a similar way to alcohol. 

It is common for many of us to feel down, we all experience it at some stage, some more than others and some longer than others. It is normal to feel down sometimes but it’s not healthy if it lasts for long periods of time.

Morton’s Neuroma is a common foot problem associated with pain, swelling and/or an inflammation of a nerve. It usually occurs at the ball-of-the-foot between the 3rd and 4th toes.
