Yoga Toes!
Posted by Denice at 10:31 am
As I was looking through my latest edition of US Weekly, I noticed an advertisement for “YogaToes ®” At first glance these appear WEIRD!! They are oddly-shaped jelly toe separators that are meant to give your feet (and toes) a workout! Well, my curiosity got the best of me and I had to try them.
According to YogaPros.com, YogaToes ® Toes Stretchers work while you relax. They stretch, strengthen, and align foot muscles. This increases circulation, can straighten bent toes, and even realign the bones. YogaToes seem truly revolutionary. They relieve foot pain while improving strength, flexibility and appearance. Plus, they are said to tackle problems at their source, keeping your feet healthy, naturally.
So I ordered my YogaToes and waited for them to arrive. I made sure that I had been wearing my peep toe heels and pointed toe shoes leading up to the arrival of my YogaToes. I was preparing my feet for their much needed workout! Not that it was hard to prepare my feet; I am always looking for “the next best thing” to pamper my feet with.
I received the YogaToes on a Tuesday and was ecstatic to try them when I got home. I read the directions and put them on. OUCH! It hurt at first, but as soon as they were on, and I relaxed on the couch, they felt much better. I left them on for about 10 minutes; they began to become a bit uncomfortable. The directions stated that it may take time to work up to having them on…I would say so!
I tried them for the next few days and they became more comfortable with each wear. I do not have MAJOR foot problems, so I did not notice any real problem fixes just that my feet were, I guess you could say…happier!
One thing that the packaging stated was to try the YogaToes hot or cold. I have yet to do that, but Beauty Chat’s Leeann did, and she preferred hers warm and toasty.
Needless to say, YogaToes will make a great holiday gift for the winter season! Amidst your shopping, however, I’d suggest ordering your own fabulous pair.

This sounds like a great product. I am always looking for something to relax my feet. I also think I will get a set for a friend of mine who has foot problems… I hope she enjoys them as much as you did Denice!

Cool product! Us working gals need more products like these, seeing as we are usually sporting the office pumps — those pointy-toed wonders can do a number on your feet!

These work great after a long day in my super cute heels (thanks Elana!). They do give your feet an awesome stretch!

As Denice said, you definately have to get used to Yoga Toes. I recommend using them warm, as opposed to cold–they are definately more relaxing this way. When used too cold, it can “shock” your tootsies a bit
kinda like dipping them into cold water. -

I saw those too and wondered about them. I may just buy them now after all.
