Facundo er kropsterapeut med baggrund i Praxis Vertebral Tibetana – en metode fra Tibet, der fokuserer på at skabe plads i rygsøjlen, så nervesystemet kan fungere, som det skal. Hans arbejde handler om bevægelse, kropsbevidsthed og at genoprette balance.
Fra tape til tåbokse
Ved klienter med problemer i fødderne bruger Facundo nogle gange en særlig tape efter behandlingen for at hjælpe tæerne med at sprede sig og genvinde styrke i den ydre del af foden. Men Facundo stødte på et problem:
"Hvis de bruger konventionelle sko, kan tæerne ikke få lov til at sprede sig inde i skoen."
Løsningen? Barfodssko.
"Metoden sammen med barfodssko er den perfekte kombination, synes jeg."
At gå barfodet – og leve praktisk
Facundo har altid nydt at gå barfodet – men som han selv siger, der er tidspunkter i livet, hvor man skal bruge sko. Det var Facundos bror, som fortalte ham om sko med en bred tåboks.
Facundo begyndte at læse om konceptet og opdagede en verden af zero-drop sko.
"Jeg tænkte: det skal jeg give en chance."
Kærlighed ved første prøvning
Sidste år, da det var tid til at skifte sko, gik han direkte ind i vores butik.
"Da jeg prøvede Xero Shoes, var det kærlighed ved første prøvning."
For Facundo blev barfodssko ikke bare fodtøj,men sko som tillader kroppen at bevæge sig. Det var det manglende led i den filosofi, han allerede levede og underviste i.
🇬🇧 ENGLISH
Facundo is a body therapist with a background in Praxis Vertebral Tibetana – a method from Tibet focused on creating space in the spine so the nervous system can work as it should. His work is about movement, awareness, and restoring balance. So when it came to shoes, it made sense that he would eventually look for something that supported that same connection.
From Tape to Toe Boxes
With clients who have issues with their feet, Facundo sometimes applies special tape after treatment to help their toes spread and regain strength along the outer edge of the foot. But there was a problem:
"If they use regular shoes, their toes can’t spread inside."
The solution? Barefoot shoes.
"With barefoot shoes, that’s the perfect combination, I think."
Walking Barefoot, Living Practically
Facundo always enjoyed being barefoot—but, as he says, you also need to wear shoes in life. That’s when his brother mentioned wide toe boxes.
He started reading about the concept, and soon discovered the world of zero-drop shoes. It made sense for his values and his body.
"I thought I should give this a chance."
Love at First Try
Last year, when it was time to replace his old shoes, he walked straight into our shop.
"When I tried Xero Shoes, it was love at first try."
For someone so tuned in to how bodies move, barefoot shoes weren’t just footwear. They were the missing piece of a philosophy he was already living and teaching.
Facundo’s story reminds us that how we move matters – and sometimes, that starts with how we stand.
