Tracy has been wearing Z-CoiL shoes for 5 years and now owns 3 styles: the Z- Walker Black, Freedom black, and the Z-treks (pictured). She just purchased her fourth, a pair of black High Desert Hiking boots. She bought her first pair of Z-Coil shoes in 2008 while Z-CoiL shopping for her clients at the Portland store.
Tracy has been a counselor for the state of Oregon since 2006.
When someone asks about her shoes she answers:"My Z-CoiL shoes help relieve my back pain. I have had back pain ever since a motorcycle accident in 1988." The accident was caused by a woman, while distracted by her car air conditioner controls, turned left broadsiding Tracy.
She sustained a tibial plafond leg fracture with subsequent surgical repair with plates and screws.
When Tracy fell at work in 2002, she aggravated her symptoms and sustained l5 spinal compressions.
She no longer rides her motorcycle to avoid risk of worsening her symptoms.
Tracy and Shona came all the way from Portland to our store for several reasons. They combined an Eagles concert at Key Arena, shopping in Seattle at "Your 2 Feet" for Z-CoiL shoes in Capital Hill, AND a 6 year anniversary celebration enjoying a wonderful meal at
the top of the Space Needle Skyview restaurant.
Shona tried on her first pair at "Your 2 Feet" after seeing Tracy's years of pain relief testimonial. Her big toe pain convinced her to give Z-Coil shoes a trial. She says,"I wish I had been wearing these shoes 20 years ago. I was
waiting for the coils to be covered since she climbs steep ladders at
work."
Shona works at Providence Medical Hospital in
facilities maintenance. Her job entails being on ladders a lot. She walks three to four
miles a day in steel toed shoes at work.
Shona bought two different styles. A pair of Z-CoiL work boots caught her eye because they come with covers. Then her heart was set on buying the grey and pink cruiser style. The cruisers had to be stretched in order to not aggravate the bone spur on top of her big toe.
Both Tracy and Shona Z-CoiL shoe coils were
adjusted for pronation while waiting in the store.
Shona has had her toe problem for 3 years. Her
chiropractor sometimes will adjust her sore toe which helps flexing the
foot for at least a month. Massage on the tendons
of the foot also helps stretch her foot tendons. Shona's mom has the same condition so it's a congenital defect. She has no history of an injury. Her toe pain is affected by the weather.
She says," Theses shoes are so comfortable.
Normally I have
such a hard time fitting shoes. I am delighted that these shoes work, with minor adjustments, right out of the box. I appreciate the fitting service at the store as
well."
She put away the shoes she wore in so she could wear
her Z-CoiL shoes out of the store.
After enduring many years of symptoms, these stories and seeing our customers obtain relief wearing Z-CoiL shoes, are very heart warming to us.
