Acupuncture shoes are special footwear that helps you to give relief from pain. Acupuncture originated from China over 200 years ago and now it has become famous worldwide. In this process thin needles are inserted at the specific points of the body. These points run along pathways in the body called meridians while inserting needles at these points the energy of the body flow equally and help to get relief from pain.
Acupuncture shoes can stop the foot illnesses and diseases. Yet the Chinese acupuncture is very old but Acupuncture shoes are being used for around twenty years. Now so many footwear companies are making acupuncture shoes using acupuncture technology.
The electro-stimulation technique is mostly used to make acupuncture shoes. Metal chains are inserted along the inside of the physiotherapy shoes, and a small hole is inserted in the back. The sole are detached along the border of the shoes. Within the wire loops acupuncture point extensions and projections are built and allow electrical conductance along the shoes’ insteps. Both positive and negative energy allow the electric waves that relieve foot stress along the soles.
Usually magnetotherapy is used in Acupuncture shoes and cushioned magnets placed on the soles and therapeutic effects give relaxation to the feet. Acupuncture shoes can also provide massage therapy to give comfort so to make a hollow space on the sole that allows the foot room to breathe instead of being cramped into the shoe from all sides.
The other types of acupuncture shoes are stimulation therapy and germanium shoes. Stimulation therapy shoes work by activating the contraction of the foot muscles. On the specific part of the feet electrical plates are placed to give a thermal effect to foot tissues and muscles that are often stressed by walking. Organic geranium dust is applied to the leather part of a shoe in geranium footwear. As geranium releases infrared rays and gives thermal effect on the feet and help to maintain the balance of the whole body. So with any acupuncture process should be performed by a trained acupuncturist who has attended acupuncture school |
