5 Ways Revs Can Help You In Your Fitness Journey

1. Promotes The Correct Posture

Revs Reflexology footwear is designed with arch support and a biomechanical structure to help correct bad posture and stance. The biomechanics of Revs keeps both bones and joints in correct alignment, reducing strain on ligaments and muscles, allowing your body to work more efficiently.

Even though the whole body is constantly moving during running, the focus of the impact is on the feet. In fact, the force exerted on the feet during running is the equivalent of 10x our body weight. That means exposing our feet, which are a relatively small part of our body, to hundreds of pounds. Although the rest of the body absorbs some of the impact – especially the knees – our feet deserve at least some attention and help. When your feet are properly cared for it can have a massive positive impact on both performance and your general mood, yet another reason to consider adding a reflexology massage and reflexology footwear to your routine.

Throughout the years of wear and tear your feet can start to build tension, lactic acid, stiffness, and joint pain which has the potential to lead to plantar fasciitis, neuroma, or tendonitis, heel spurs, bunions. These conditions may require surgery and other medical procedures, but what we are starting to see today is an increase in people using complementary therapies or products alongside, or instead of, conventional medicine such as Reflexology, with some excellent results.

Revs® massage footwear is ideal for easily and effectively boosting your blood flow. The massage nodules on the soles of the shoes stimulate your reflexes promoting blood flow and circulation to all your organs, glands and muscles in the body. If you are someone who works at a desk most of the day, wear your shoes and press your feet against the nodules. Or wear the Revs® insoles so you can benefit from the massage in your work shoes whether you are walking or sitting. An experiment carried out by the Shizuoka Industrial Technology Centre shows how much the sole surface temperature increases after wearing Reflexology Shoes for 30 minutes, proving a boost in blood flow and circulation.

Revs Reflexology footwear helps to elevate your blood flow, aid joint pain making exercise easier and more enjoyable (whether that’s walking or running). As a result, you are likely to spend more time outdoors and exercising which increases your endorphins. For those of us who are more athletic, Revs can make the recovery process less stiff and uncomfortable. All of these things put together can help to improve your mood and mental health.
