Are You Ashamed Of Your Height?
May 22, 2012If you feel your height lets you down, if you feel that being of
a lesser height than average is holding you back or if your lack of
stature brings you feelings of low esteem or self worth, then shoe
lifts could be the answer. shoe lifts sometimes known as shoe lifts
are shoe insoles that fit into any footwear but unlike regular
insoles the heel portion is extra thick and this results in a
raising of the heel, giving the wearer an increase of height, the
increase being dependent on how thick the heel area of the insert
is. Some shoe lifts have adjustable inserts that enable the wearer
to gradually increase the height available.
shoe lifts first surfaced in Asia, probably due to the relatively
lower than average height. Recently shoe lifts have become really
popular in the western world and as physical appearance becomes
more and more important, shoe lifts are becoming a booming
industry. Instant height increase is possible and even the medical
profession is impressed by these ingenious devices. Leg length
discrepancy is a serious issue for sufferers, some people are born
with a disparity in the length of their legs, one leg being shorter
in length than the other. Leg length discrepancy can cause the gait
or stride of the affected individual to be impaired, limping can
occur and in extreme cases there can exist serious pain
accompanying an awkward gait. shoe lifts for leg length
discrepancies should only be used following consultation with an
appropriate medical practitioner.
shoe lifts used to increase height for purely image related reasons
should also be treated with the proper respect. Common sense must
prevail and any prospective consumer should take this into account.
The accepted height increase limit is generally regarded as 5cms
tops, anything further and there is a real risk of harm or injury,
wearing shoe lifts changes the center of gravity in the wearer and
great care and practice is needed to become accustomed to the
difference, picture a lady in high heels, the novice wearer of high
heels can be seen walking with uncomfortable and awkward steps, the
more experienced wearer, will walk with assured and confident
steps.
Adjustable shoe lifts are great for both the novice and the
experienced user, the beginner can gradually increase the height,
starting with the thinnest insert and as they become more sure
footed, adding further inserts until their desired height increase
is achieved. Adjustable shoe lifts also offer the advantage of a
less noticeable increase in height allowing the user to become
taller over time, this avoids unwanted comments that can cause
embarrassment. Anyone considering the use of shoe lifts, the only
height increase solution that guarantees results, should not ignore
the advice given here and rush into huge increases of height, it is
no good to be hospitalized after an avoidable fall as everyone is
the same height lying down. Take it gradually and sensibly and
these remarkably cheap and successful inventions can improve your
life, your confidence levels and your general feeling of well being
in a safe an unnoticeable manner. There is no proof whatsoever that
training programs or magic pills will ever increase your height,
the only sure fire way is to wear shoe lifts.
