The Fivefingers Vibram Shoe Is Groundbreaking

How To Use VFF Shoes To Get Maximum Benefits


Anyone who has participated in hiking, jogging, running, climbing and other forms of exercise knows that the standard athletic shoes used for such ventures often leave a bit to be desired.

Standard shoes are heavy, can be constricting or loose in places, and sometimes can be more of a pain than a fitness asset. That's why the fivefingers Vibram shoe is so revolutionary.

This featherweight shoe makes your fitness endeavors easier and more effective. Movements become more natural, as if you really are going barefoot. That's better no matter what you're doing.

5 Benefits of Vibram FiveFingers in Physical Therapy

1. Building Strength in Targeted Muscle Groups - For patients who have suffered injuries in their feet or legs and are on the path to recovery, Vibrams can provide the potential to build muscle strength in atrophied regions more effectively.

2. Improving Range of Motion because Vibrams separate the wearer’s toes, a whole new range of motion is opened up. Most shoes constrict the foot and impair natural motion, but Vibrams encourage the body to move without constraints. This helps the foot and toes to move more naturally.
