Our feet bear the weight of the whole body, allowing us to do all our work. Still, they are the least pampered part of the body. A regular foot massage along with reflexology helps in promoting physiological as well as physical health. Kenkoh, The Japanese footwear brand features improved health through the benefits of reflexology.
Reflexology is a therapeutic treatment that is used to improve general health and well-being. It promotes the body’s natural ability to heal itself by improving circulation, reducing stress and pain and restoring the body to its natural healthy balanced state.
Reflexology is based on the principle that there are various pressure points in the hands, ears and feet, known as reflexes which correspond to all of the organs and body systems. When the body is in full health, energy flows freely between the reflexes and corresponding parts of the body, but when the body is out of sync this energy becomes stagnant and blocked. Reflexology works to gently simulate the affected area and release the blockage thus promoting the body’s ability to function at an optimal level.
The human foot is an evolutionary marvel, capable of handling hundreds of tons of force and your weight in motion. It has 42 muscles, 26 bones, 33 joints, 250,000 sweat glands and at least 50 ligaments and tendons—plus almost 15,000 nerve endings!
In reflexology pressure is applied to these reflexes on the feet, which promotes good health.
As an alternative to costly reflexology sessions, Kenkoh offers all the benefits of acupuncture therapy on the go. The footwear features complementary therapy for ailments like cancer, diabetes, flat feet and tendonitis; it also helps to relieve physical symptoms of mental stress like migraines and lack of sleep.

Our Experience:
The elastomer technology used by Kenkoh supports your feet and cushions your soles as you walk. You can almost bounce along while walking because they feel so springy and this is what makes them so comfortable to wear for long periods of time.
For the first few times, the feel of the nodules is unusual. They massage your feet and instantly they soothe and calm stressed and tired soles. The nodules are designed to completely surround and fill every contour of the soles of the feet and so they are different in size and length. Pressure is put directly onto the arch of the foot which at first can feel odd and uncomfortable, even a bit painful. However, the longer you wear them the more you adjust to the sensation and it starts to feel pleasurable. We are loving our Kenkoh experience!
