Give Your Feet a Break with Dr. Kong!

When I went to Guevarra's by Chef Laudico's quaint resto for the Dr. Kong event, I really didn't know what to expect. Well, I know I wanted to eat. Haha. Patay gutom lang lagi lol. I also just wanted to see and catch up with blogger friends. But the discussion and presentation caught my interest, especially since it's always a daunting task for me to wear heels and find comfortable shoes. Never imagined there's actually a shoe line which promotes health and wellness (toroooy spa levels) for our feet! Learned a lot that day! This is so  important that I just had to share it with you guyzzz. This just might save your life. Or not. But it will save your feet from further abuse. Heee. I have yet to try their products (will visit their store soon) but I hope it makes my life in heels easier. Photos!



So guys, meet Mr Raymond Ng, founder of Dr. Kong Footcare. He established the brand in 1999, with a mission to educate the public on the importance of foot health. Since its inception, it has grown rapidly; having expanded to 62 retail outlets in Hong Kong, 70 retail outlets in China and now arrive on Philippines shores . Dr. Kong is not a person okay. Haha. Kong actually came from Hong Kong where it all started. Hihi.



Study shows most parents overlook the importance of their children's foot problems and suitable shoe types. This may lead to foot problems such as flatfoot and rearfoot valgus, affecting an otherwise healthy and normal development. Foot problem can lead to knee, hip and lower back pain that can limit mobility. Most foot ailments stem from the cumulative effects of years of wear, tear and ‘abuse’ which we subject our feet to.  In some cases foot ailments can be an early signal of more serious medical problems like arthritis or diabetes. Remember if you are experiencing pain or discomfort in your ankles, knees or hip joints, the direct cause may be the result of ill-fitting shoes. Di niyo alam yun noh! I didn't. Tsk.


 

Apart from the range of ready-to-wear ultra comfy shoes for the entire family, Dr. Kong Footcare also provides the unique “Check & Fit” foot examination service at no extra cost. It helps educate customers about their feet condition. Depending on the result, they then recommend & offer the appropriate and suitable Dr. Kong standard insoles (applicable for most of the shoe designs) to fit into their choice of footwear. Nice!

i wanna try this na ASAP!

But wait, there's more! Aside from shoes, Dr. Kong also sells backpacks and school bags which are designed to avoid putting pressure on the spine. It also comes with a waist strap to shift the weight from the shoulder to the pelvic area. Parang mountaineering backpack lang!:)

Anyway, my favorite among all their products would be the gel shoe inserts that you could use with any style of footwear. Now you don't have to make tiis ganda na! Hehe. Their shoe accessories are reusable and interchangeable. Bongga.
