Shoes made by Masai Barefoot Technology (MBT) are based on the observations made of the African Masai tribes people. Watching the Masai people walk on natural, uneven ground gave the realisation that human feet are not made for walking with flat modern shoes or on the flat surfaces found in modern urban areas.
MBT shoes are designed to mimic how humans walk with bare feet on soft, uneven ground. This has a number of benefits including toning the muscles of the body, burning more calories while you are standing or walking, and increased circulation through the body.
All these benefits have a positive flow on effect – they can lead to a reduction in cellulite. One effective way to reduce cellulite is to burn fat, increase the lean muscle in the hips, thighs and buttocks, and stimulate blood and lymphatic flow to remove toxins. This is exactly what MBT shoes do.
The secret is in the cellulite shoe’s rolling motion. By simulating walking on uneven ground, the body’s natural instability function is engaged and the muscles of the buttocks, stomach and legs are activated and strengthened.
Besides cellulite treatment, MBT shoes also have other positive benefits for people’s health. They improve a person’s posture; help with back, hip, leg and foot problems; and assist in the recovery of joint, muscle ligament and tendon injuries. If you have a specific health complaint, you should only use MBT shoes under the guidance of a health professional.
These anti cellulite shoes are for walking only. They should not be used for sport or fitness purposes. Instead you should use shoes specifically designed for these activities.
