Unexpected rescue

In my artistic work, I stand at the easel for hours. Sitting is not possible. And then last year, out of the blue, I had massive foot pain. We were visiting my daughter at the Baltic Sea and had a dinner date for the first evening. The way there - about one kilometre - was hardly manageable for me on foot. And the days after that I could completely forget, holiday activities of any kind were not possible and painting was not even a thought.

Back home, I got the tip from a colleague to get DUX clogs immediately. He thought it was a heel spur. Today I know that he was right. And the effect was absolutely amazing.

With these clogs, walking and standing was immediately possible again. And the best thing: after five weeks, my feet were practically pain-free. I was perhaps lucky that the inflammation was still in a very early stage and could heal well with the relief provided by the DUX footbed.

Of course, I stayed with these shoes afterwards. In the meantime, I wear them not only in the studio, but also to work and often in my free time.

Observations from medical practice

I always try to find an optimal treatment strategy for the individual patient and his or her individual complaints from various therapy directions and therapy options. This multimodality therapy concept has proven to be very successful, especially for chronic diseases.

Many of my patients come to my practice with various orthopaedic problems. We sit for far too long, move too little, often carry too much face around with us and women in particular often torture themselves into fashionable but not very foot-healthy footwear. The consequences: chronic back and foot pain, muscle and posture weakness, and with it joint wear and tear, damaged intervertebral discs and foot deformities such as hammer toe, metatarsalgia and heel spurs.

For me, the CHUNG SHI shoe range is an important component of my multimodal treatment concept for all these complaints. The soft footbed with optimal pressure distribution often leads to rapid pain relief. Especially in the case of heel spurs and hammer toes, I recommend the DUX Clog as a useful addition and additional option to my multimodal treatment programme.

The DUX Clogs have also proven their worth as work shoes in my practice for many years. The feet of our entire practice team are well looked after in them in summer and winter. They contribute to the health of the staff and thanks to the soft material, my staff are always walking around the practice on quiet soles. The strict hygiene regulations of a medical practice are also optimally fulfilled by the possibility of wipe disinfection.

Another argument for choosing this work shoe were the two test ratings of "very good" for the DUX red from 2008 and for the DUX navy from 2018.
