Sitting for long periods, as well as walking and standing on hard unforgiving floors, puts a one-sided strain on the muscles and spine. Over time, underused muscles become weaker and shorten. Muscles that are overexerted on one side react with tension. Neck, hip and back pain are the consequences and ultimately affect the overall posture.
Back therapies focus on muscle training, reduction of tension, immobilisation or even surgery. kybun follows a philosophy of fighting the root causes. Walking and standing in everyday life on elastic and springy material releases tension, stimulates movement and strengthens the entire body musculature with every step, without exercises and without taking up your time. It is also extremely comfortable.
The kybun shoe with its elastic and springy air cushion sole promotes an upright posture and thus prevents uneven strain on the spinal discs and back muscles.
This helps to avoid a one-sided protective posture and the increased freedom of movement of the foot and the resulting assymetry in the kybun shoe ensures a constant change of tension and relaxation on the back muscles. This enhanced mobitliy trains the entire body musculature and reduces tensions and blockages during long walks and long periods standing both at work and in your leisure time.
«For me, the kybun shoe is a product for daily use. When I get up in the morning, I slip into a sandal. When I leave the house, I put on one of the different models. I can't really compare it to the old days and I don't want to anymore. I enjoy it. Every time I'm out, I think about what I'm wearing on my feet.» Kurt Inderbitzin
