Testimonial of the Month – April 2009

Posted by heatherw1 on April 6, 2009

High Desert Hikers I was in your store on Sunday and bought a pair of Z-CoiL shoes with what I will admit was skepticism for fear of another snake oil remedy to help with my foot pain. 

What I want to tell you is OH MY GOD!!! After only two days of wearing Z-CoiL shoes, my pain is almost 100% gone.  All that is left is what I can only describe as a very slight, almost phantom discomfort I believe will disappear after my feet are given a chance to completely heal over the course of some time.
 
I am jokingly referring to this purchase as my ”miracle shoes.”  They may look a little funny but it is worth it and anyone that wants to tease can stick it in their ear! I have been walking around in mild to severe discomfort for a couple of years. 
 

Last year I went to a podiatrist who prescribed custom orthotics. He told me that if those did not work I was most likely looking at surgery (that may or may not work) to relieve my discomfort.  For some reason “foot surgery” scared the hell out of me so I have been putting it off and living with the pain. 
 
Then, last week I was listening to the Dr. Bob Martin radio show on KFYI and he gave your store and the product an unsolicited plug while discussing a foot problem with a caller. I thought to myself, “What do I have to lose? If they don’t work there is always the surgery option.”
 
In closing, thank you, thank you, thank you! I have not been pain-free in a very long time. Aside from the shoes, the owners at the Scottsdale store were also very friendly and quite helpful. Even though they have probably done this a thousand times or more they patiently explained the product without appearing disinterested and went the extra mile to make sure my difficult-to-fit feet were fitted properly.
 
Pleasantly surprised and eternally grateful,

Testimonial of the Month – March 2009

Posted by heatherw1 on March 5, 2009

I am indeed a fan and an evangelist of Z-CoiL shoes! I have barely taken them off since buying them in July. They are so comfortable! It’s like walking on grass, barefoot, and I feel I have much more stamina. They cushion you from the exhaustion of everyday life. Everywhere I go I get asked about them and complimented about their look. Some find them a source of mirth, but I’m the last one laughing ‘cos they don’t know how blissfully comfortable they are. I am a true Z-CoiL die hard.

Testimonial of the Month – February 2009

Posted by heatherw1 on February 10, 2009

This months’s Testimonial comes in from Avon, IN.

Due to Chemotherapy, my wife suffered from extreme neuropathy in her feet. In the beginning, it was so bad she couldn’t even walk. For two days we had to wheel her around in her computer chair until the wheelchair arrived. She couldn’t even go grocery shopping without using the wheelchair. At night when we were sleeping, she would wake up screaming if I accidentally bumped her feet. In June of last year, she even had to quit the job she loved very much.

Months passed by, and her quality of life went down to almost zero. She was in pain 24/7. To lighten the mood we would call her feet “Happy Feet” after the movie, because she always had to gently hop from foot to foot when she did manage to stand. This product, Z-CoiL, which I was at first leery of has been a God send. The results were so impressive we even bought her another pair!

I am so grateful Z-CoiL shoes have given my wife her life back. Instead of sitting around the house, worrying and feeling despondent, she has gone back to work (8 hours a day, no less) on concrete floors; as happy as a lamb once again. She can go anywhere; do anything, as long a she has on Z-CoiL shoes. I am so impressed! I posted your shoes on my Vietnam Company’s website. Due to Agent Orange and its effects, many Vets have problems that we think this can help. Z-CoiL needs to go to one of the VA hospitals and introduce your shoes. You can help so many regain their lives back. Thank you so much for your product, it works! It’s not hype!

Z-CoiL Testimonial of the Month – January 2009

Posted by heatherw1 on January 23, 2009

I would like to express how much Z-CoiL shoes have improved and helped many areas in my life. I was hit by a car when I was 11 years old; since then I have suffered a lot of lower back pain, and have had a major operation and several procedures performed on my upper and lower back. Four years ago I was introduced to this fabulous shoe. I have not worn another brand of shoe since, and am now walking without the assistance of a walker. I am more active and more healthy then I was four years ago. I know several nurses who have also received comfort from using Z-CoiL shoes.

The benefits are countless for me! Thank you for your incredible product; it does help and can be rated over NIKE in my books.

November Testimonial of the Month

Posted by heatherw1 on November 9, 2008

One of the most rewarding aspects of my position here at Z-CoiL is maintaining our customer testimonial database. It is just so touching to hear how our footwear really changes people’s lives for the better. Every month we select a customer’s inspirational story to be featured as the Testimonial of the Month. I would like to share those with you each month, and please feel free to add your story to the blog.

For even more heart-felt testimonials please visit our website.

Over five years ago, I was anticipating having to use wheelchair because of my Plantar Fasciitis, flat feet, super flexible ankles, and massive pain in both my feet and back. I could only be on my feet for an hour before pain forced me to sit. I had begun to hunch over just to compensate for the pain. I had tried many shoe inserts but with very little relief. I was working full time on cement floors teaching music. On Wednesday, before Thanksgiving, I got my first pair of Z-Coil shoes.

On that Friday I went shopping with my daughter for 10 hours with very little pain by the end of the day! I never went back to any other shoes for over four years. I now own six pair of Z-CoiL shoes and they are all I wear. My favorite style is the hiking boot. They give my ankles the best support for those uneven surfaces. Now, I can even wear other shoes for several hours but I always go back to my Z-CoiL shoes.
 
I have traveled to many areas of the world including the Mediterranean and The Panama Canal. Everywhere I go people ask about my Z-CoiL shoes. Once every two years I return to my foot doctor to get my inserts rebuilt but I still have my first pair of Z-CoiL Shoes and still love them.
Because of the quality construction, they are holding up very well. In Rome I even crossed through two feet of rushing water and soaked my boots. They dried out overnight and are just fine. I have saved a lot of money on Doctor bills and avoided surgeries on my feet thanks to Z-CoiL. The best thing of all is NO MORE PAIN! Thank you so very much.
