GROUNDING

Grounding or Earthing means directly connecting the body to the Earth, removing electrical charge imbalances by transferring electrons between the body and the Earth’s surface. In our modern world, where technology surrounds us and we are constantly insulated from the Earth’s energy, the importance of grounding is increasingly apparent.

Today, reconnecting with Earth’s energy is easier than ever, thanks to advancements in technology. Grounding products, such as our Groundz shoes, allow individuals to access the benefits of earthing without the need to be barefoot. By incorporating grounding into our daily routines, we can reduce inflammation, improve sleep quality, alleviate pain, and enhance our overall health—with less need for pills or prescriptions.

WIDE TOE BOX

FOOT FREEDOM

Barefoot shoes: Provide ample space for the toes to splay naturally, promoting balance, stability and proper alignment and reducing the risk of deformities.

Conventional shoes: Typically feature a tapered toe box, which can compress the toes, restrict movement, and lead to conditions like bunions and hammertoes.

ZERO DROP

NATURAL GAIT

Barefoot shoes: Have a flat or nearly flat “zero-drop” sole, which keeps your feet in a neutral position and aligns your body correctly. They promote a natural way of stepping, usually landing on the middle or front part of your foot. This helps reduce the risk of impact-related injuries to your feet, knees, hips, and back by absorbing the impact more evenly across your foot.

Conventional shoes: Usually have raised heels which can throw off your body’s natural alignment, causing problems like tight calf muscles, stiff ankles, and back pain. They usually cause a “heel-first” walking or running style, which can send strong impact forces through your body and may lead to discomfort or injury.

MINIMAL

CUSHION & ARCH SUPPORT

Barefoot shoes: Provide minimal cushioning and arch support, enabling natural foot movement, proper alignment, more muscle engagement, and enhanced sensory feedback from the ground. This can boost balance, stability, strength, posture, and overall foot function.

Conventional shoes: While abundant (and often excessive) shoe cushioning can provide immediate comfort, it can also dampen sensory feedback and weaken the muscles in the feet and lower legs over time, contributing to pain, injury, and issues like overpronation and plantar fasciitis.

BEAUTIFUL SOLE

FLEXIBLE, THIN, LIGHTWEIGHT

Barefoot shoes: Designed to be lightweight and flexible, allowing for unrestricted movement and better biomechanical function. By allowing your feet to feel the texture and contours of the ground beneath you, these shoes can help improve proprioception – the body’s awareness of its own position and movement – which can enhance athletic performance and reduce the risk of injury.

Conventional shoes: Often feature rigid soles and stiff materials that limit the foot’s natural range of motion, reducing sensory input and proprioception. This lack of flexibility can lead to discomfort, reduced range of motion, and may contribute to issues such as foot pain, muscle stiffness, and joint strain, increasing the risk of trips or falls.
