Testimonials
| “Chung Shi shoes and Nordic Walking poles have been the the best proactive health investment I have ever made. Since May 2007, I have lost 15 pounds and gone from a capri pant size 26 to size 18. My shirt size decreased to 14-16 from 22-24. Most importantly, the doctor decreased my blood pressure medication to one 20mg tablet daily. After a day of teaching middle school students, I feel energized and go for my evening walk. The shoes help my posture and my knees so much I almost will not wear any other shoes! The staff at Foot Solutions in Kansas City are helpful, knowledgeable and pleasant. Karen Iverson, Nordic Walking Instructor, is patient and willing to share her expertise and wealth of information regarding health issues. A great support team!” - Maxine J. Meyer, middle school teacher, Kansas City, MO |
| “My lifestyle is busy, and my body was unfortunately showing signs of inactivity and weight gain. My lower back was making it difficult to enjoy my students and family. I joined the Walk Club at school with my faculty friends and within the first 2 weeks my back pain WAS GONE and I had already lost 4 pounds.” - Robin T., 2nd grade teacher & mother |
| “Our neighborhood Nordic Walking class has gotten the whole family outdors together at least 3 times per week. We have significantly impacted our insulin dependence, improved family dynamics and feel great. There is even a high school program to get the teenagers on their feet whether they are track stars or in the marching band.” - Michael, Michelle & Laura D., a diabetic family |
| “I'm a certified coach, retired U.S. Army Lieutenant Colonel, war vet, motivational speaker, an All-Army marathoner and track runner. I've run, I've coached; I've trained. Never before have I encountered an activity that is perfect for elite athletes as a recovery and training tool and, at the same time, perfect for the majority of our population.” - Coach Sue B., a USATF, RRCA & Nordic Pole Walking |
| “As a 60-year old active physician, it was immediately obvious the value of Nordic Pole Walking. Many of my patients were stuck in a rut of needing to exercise but not feeling comfortable in traditional gyms or training regiments. Nordic Pole Walking is the best low-impact, cardio activity I have come across. Our patients walk for their heart, their health and their life.” - Dr. Art L., heart surgeon inner city hospital |
| “Our busy practice has totally benefited from our Foot Solutions™ Nordic Pole Walking classes. We have pregnant moms, mature patients and staff, all walking, sharing ideas and staying fit. It's a win-win for women's health!” - Nurse Denise M. & Dr. Carol H., Ob-Gyn |
