Testimonial - Kathy Phillips


Kathy is a teacher who was suffering from knee issues. She was getting ready to go on the trip of a lifetime in Patagonia Chile! The map above gives you an idea of her route. She knew she was going to have trouble, so she stopped in to get a pair of Z-CoiL Pain Relief Footwear. Kathy chose a pair of Freedom 2000's in blue and white to take this trek!

"I bought my first pair the day before I left San Jose for a hike around the mountains of Torres del Paine National Park in Patagonia, Chile in South America," says Kathy. "I was apprehensive about this hike because I have lousy knees and was willing to try anything that would help me finish this hike."The hike was 80 miles and I spread it out over 13 days. The trail was every kind of terrain; flat, steep up, steep down, rocky, boulders, hideous mud slog, straight down the hillside slippery mud, down-climbing rocky areas, wading through the ice cold glacier fed stream...
"My Z-CoiL's worked extremely well on all these kinds of terrain. I credit the shoes with making it possible for me to finish all 80 miles!

"I also have a pair of sandals that work great when teaching," concludes Kathy.

You can see by the pictures that there was some pretty incredible terrain that Kathy covered, and her Z-CoiL's performed great!

Many people in the store are always concerned about having an open coil when they are out hiking. As long as you follow some simple, common sense precautions, you won't have an issue.



Until later,
Caesar...

Testimonial - Barbara Miller



Barbara is a registered nurse who first came into our store in January, 2005 with low back and knee pain. She tried on a pair of Z-CoiL's and what a difference it made!

"A friend recommended Z-CoiL's to relieve my back pain and they did that and more!" says Barbara. "I work on cement floors walking all day caring for patients and before X-CoiL's, my hips and thighs would sting and be severely painful.

"After one day of Z-CoiL's worn at work, no more pain anywhere! I use these forever and ever through all weather and activities.

"Thank you for helping make my professional and personal life so pain-free and give me a great attitude toward life again!" concludes Barbara.

Barbara came in today to buy a pair of sandals for the heat wave we are having to add to her collection of Taos and Zueco clogs.

Independence Day!



Wow! The summer is almost half over already! Time has flown right by. We have had a very busy time in the store and we thank our customers for your continued success.

Independence Day is very special in that we have the opportunity to celebrate the true freedom we have in America... And Z-CoiL's are very special to many people in that they allow them a different kind of freedom... Freedom from pain! Freedom to live their life in a more productive manner! We are very thankful for having the opportunity to provide this freedom for our customers.

This week, another dealer brought a clip to my attention which says it better than I could ever do. For those of you who are young enough that you don't remember Red Skeleton, he was a movie star and comedian on television back in the 1950's. He created a number of characters and his show was watched by millions. He did this on his show one evening, back when shows were live. It is a bit long, but it is worth listening to! Click here to view the clip.

Enjoy the Holiday... and your freedom!
