In essence Masai Barefoot Technology (MBT) is a redesign of shoes that cause the user to have to balance while they walk.
Like almost all Back in Action products the intention is to create a life style more compatible with the way our bodies evolved and we evolved walking on surfaces with 'give'. Walking on hard surfaces puts our body through extremes of unnatural pressure; overloads the joints from the ankles, knees, hips to lower back and upwards through the spine. Conventional training shoes typically only support and cushion your feet; the unique lever spring action of MBT's challenge the core strengthening muscles to be more active.MBT shoes make all sufaces like walking on sand and create a natural balanced walking posture, increased shock absorption for joints and, once acclimatised, users report exceptional increases in vitality and well being.
We promise that our prices are the best you can get, but there may be a way to save even more! There is a little known VAT office concession which allows most Back in Action customers to buy certain products without paying the VAT element. If you (or someone who will be using one of these specific products) are suffering from a chronic/long term condition you should fully explore if this concession applies.
To make it clear: when an item can be purchased at vat zero rating for health reasons, and we offer that option on-line, there will be two pricing options shown and you simply choose the one applicable to your circumstances.
To make sure you don't miss out on this concession here is a brief summary:
To summarise: As a health orientated centre we are in a unique position to help you claim what is rightfully available. If your condition and the product you are buying qualifies then we will not charge VAT. We provide you with a simple form, and if this is correctly filled in we confirm that we will not charge the VAT. You don't need to provide us with any proof, but you may need to do so to the VAT office if they select your sale as a random check. The majority of Back in Action customers find they are eligible for this relief.
MBT shoes stand alone at the forefront of innovative design when it comes to fitness and wellbeing. The unique curvature of the sole, assists in developing muscle tone, improving stability, reducing muscle strain as well as helping to promote good posture. We have also seen great results with these shoes aiding with long term improvements in a wide range of conditions including heel strike, fused ankle and toe joints, plantar fasciitis and bone edemas, to name just a few.
