New Feet Orthotics Saved Her Failing Feet


By Debbie Neumayer

Cherie Guzman almost went under the knife to save her feet. Born with a “bad left foot” she says she inherited from her mom who also had the same problem, Cherie could barely walk by the time she came across the New Feet Store. She grew up in North Dakota and walked everywhere without proper shoes. By the time she was an adult, her arches had fallen and Cherie was limping around, trying to find relief. She spent hundreds of dollars on prescription orthotics that didn’t fit and were uncomfortable. She spent additional money on unattractive custom shoes that she dubbed “grandma shoes” only because she thought they would help. Since she enjoyed wearing pretty shoes, this was especially difficult to endure. In the summer of 2009, while taking her granddaughter sightseeing in Las Vegas, the navicular bone in her ankle dropped. The pain was so excruciating that she rushed to her physician. He told her that her ligaments were shot. The doctor said, “You need surgery to put titanium in your foot and you will need a brace for the rest of your life.”

Cherie is a professional massage therapist and couldn’t afford to take precious time away from work to recuperate from surgery. She also couldn’t accept the lifelong sentence of a brace, so she started looking at other alternatives. Cherie reports that during this time her foot hurt so badly that “it felt like I was walking on tacks.”  Her left foot pronated (turned in)…

New Feet Arch Supports Won Her Over

by Debbie Neumayer

Vicki Chilicki recalls the Christmas five years ago that her husband, Michael, surprised her with a gift certificate for New Feet Store orthotics. Michael initially found out about the New Feet orthotics through a referral. He and Vicki are both avid golfers and he knew that arch support was important. However, when they entered the New Feet Store for the first time, Vicki walked right back out. “That’s too much money and I don’t want them,” she told him. Vicki admits that, at that time, she was “under protest.” She thought it could be a scam because of the cost.

Michael decided that he would use the gift certificate, instead. However, Vicki’s curiosity overcame her skepticism and she reconsidered when she saw Michael being fitted with the arch supports. When he asked if she’d like to try the “Relaxer,” she decided it wouldn’t hurt. She noticed immediately that her feet felt better. Vicki became sold on the orthotics and purchased a pair of Lifestyles arch supports the same day.

Vicki says that it took about three weeks for her feet to adjust to the devices. She emphasizes that a proper stance and balanced posture are very important to a good golf game. She and Michael both noticed better contact with the ball after they started wearing the New Feet arch supports. Michael has had significant hip problems for years and noticed that they eased when he began wearing the New Feet orthotics.

In contrast to her initial opinion years ago,…

New Feet Orthotics: Teaming Up for a Great Golf Game


by Debbie Neumayer

Patty and Gary Gee are experienced golfers. They know that a good game depends upon a sharp eye, a balanced swing and steady stance. And they need the very best support for their feet. Patty says that for years, her feet and toes would burn in her golf shoes and she couldn’t understand why.  She would have to remove her shoes often to give her feet relief. She also had tried various remedies but the problem still persisted.

One day, she heard a radio advertisement for the New Feet shoes and orthotics and thought she would check them out. When Patty and Gary first entered the New Feet Store, they saw two ladies being fitted. The women were wearing inexpensive shoes that didn’t look like they would be good for their feet. Patty remembers remarking about it to her husband. She now realizes that if you have good orthotics, it makes all the difference to your feet–even if you are just wearing ordinary department store shoes.

Fast forward to today. Patty and Gary have both been wearing New Feet orthotics now for nearly six years. They didn’t know until they tried New Feet arch supports that they could make such a positive difference in their balance and foot health. Patty says, “It’s amazing. You start off stepping on a piece of paper for an impression of your feet and end up with plastic inserts that can change your life.”

Patty is enthusiastic about her experience. “We love the New Feet…
