Increase Bone Density (fight osteoroposis) 
 
Rebounding in Kangoo Jumps stimulates osteoblastic bone rebuilding activity in the vertebral bodies and weight-bearing osseous structures of the pelvis and lower extremities. This is essential in the prevention of osteoporosis, especially in women. Kangoo Jumps provide individuals with a cutting edge comprehensive conditioning and rehabilitation system that is safe and effective.

Within only 2 weeks of stay in outer space, astronauts lose as much as 15% of their bone and muscle mass, as a result of the absence of gravity. Consequently, N.A.S.A. had to investigate how to reverse the process. Finally their studies came to the conclusion that “rebound exercise is the most effective and efficient form of exercise ever devised by man”   
 
Cardiovascular

Rebounding with Kangoo Jumps provides a quick and easy aerobic effect to the body, especially the heart. Rebounding could practically be described as a “heart exercise”, since in using Kangoo Jumps your legs are the primary limbs physically active. It is easier on the heart to exercise the legs than the arms. Your heart has to work 250 % harder to pump the same amount of blood through your arms as it does to pump it through your legs. This is why people die while shovelling snow in Wintertime or playing tennis. Their arm movements are placing a tremendous burden on the heart muscle to deliver the oxygen and nutrients in the blood to the upper limb.
Dr. Morton Walker
Energy

Any kind of exercise will increase your energy level on a long run, because you train your body to work better and develop more mitochondrias, which are the powerhouses of the cells.

However most forms of exercise are strenuous, so that people who lack training will feel exhausted, even for the next day.

Having a non strenuous physical activity with Kangoo Jumps the way we recommend, that is only for short sessions and never exceeding your level of comfort, you will enjoy an incredible high level of energy right away and feel relaxed. Guaranteed.

Act as Natural Face Lift 

Imagine holding a balloon filled with water while you bounce on your bed. Can you visualize what happens to the balloon?Each cell of your body is like this balloon. Rebounding puts them repeatedly under stress as they need to resist the increased G force (when the balloon reaches the maximum elongation). With time, the cell’s membrane get thicker, thus firmer, and gains elasticity. Your skin is a community of cells. Therefore, rebounding regularly with Kangoo Jumps will firm your skin and increase it’s elasticity.
Help fight depression & stress

It is a fact, stated over and over, Induce an immediate state of euphoria:
When anyone gets on Kangoo Jumps, you can observe an almost immediate big smile, expressing total happiness. This is because KJ awaken the inner child and induce a state of euphoria (which can be explained by the fast release of endorphins – called the hormone of happiness).
Kangoo Jumps are an excellent remedy to depression!

Dr. Morton Walker, in his book “Jumping for Health”, pages 82-91, describes 30 Specific Anti-stress Benefits of Rebounding (Avery Publishing Group Inc., Garden City Park, New York)
 
Promote ideal postural alignment and balance  
 
Many practitioners report that the majority of their patients have very poor posture due to many factors which include the impact of sitting at computers, TV and other sedentary life style issues. There are also certain postural conditions associated with specific sport activities such as cycling, etc. Poor posture can have a negative effect on an individual’s health. Using Kangoo Jumps assures ideal posture by forcing your foot placement to be at the best possible angle directly below the pelvic girdle that ultimately supports the alignment of the whole body.
Many customers report that they find that they breathe in such a way to fill their lungs to capacity when using Kangoo Jumps. Thus, providing more oxygen for the brain, muscles, etc, to function at an optimal level. Some benefits that customers report are that they have more energy, faster response time to stimuli, longer attention span and that they feel more vibrant and alive.

Balance is an important issue and has become a frequent complaint from patients while speaking with their practitioner. Again, a more sedentary life style has influenced this issue. Consistent movement with properties that are identified as “Proprioceptive” is necessary to assure proper balance. Proprioceptive activity is defined as stimulating the spine and harmonizing all of the mechanoreceptors located in your extremity. Kangoo Jumps assure that optimum “balance” occurs in a safe and effective manner for individuals of all ages and activity levels.

KJ correct posture and naturally realign the body    

Because of the rounded shape of their soles, Kangoo Jumps naturally prevents you from adopting bad postures. You automatically align your body in order to keep your balance.
Wits University in Johannesburg – South Africa, is in the process of conducting the most comprehensive study ever made with Kangoo Jumps (testing about 800 parameters!). The section on body posture is already finished. It shows pictures of reference subjects, before starting the KJ program and 3 months after. The differences are amazing!
A large portion of the population has chronic back pain, which, in most cases, is due to a bad posture. The use of Kangoo Jumps will in most cases eliminate (or at least alleviate) the pain and prevent it from recurring.

Most of us either pronate or supinate, to some degree. Look at the soles of your shoes: if the inner side is more worn, you pronate. If it is the outside portion, you supinate. When running, supination or pronation creates a rotation movement in your ankles and knees, which can become painful and create lesions.
A Swiss chiropodist scientific study shows that Kangoo Jumps correct pronation and supination conditions, however especially when the problem originates from the lower leg. This is quite logical to understand: Kangoo Jumps are about 6 inches higher than normal shoes and the soles are laterally flat. When you don’t land flat with the sole, you get the impression that you might twist our ankle. So we instinctively correct the foot position. However, when the problem originates from the upper leg (knee, hip), KJ cannot fully correct the condition.

PROTECTS JOINTS, MINIMIZE IMPACT UP TO 80%  
 
Scientific investigations with regards to impact forces have reported that between 27% to 70% of runners or joggers get injured in the first year of after commencement of running.Some other sports show similar results.
 
These factors indicate the importance of Impact Protection.
 
Kangoo Jumps, with their patented Impact Protection System, reduce the impact up to 80%, as confirmed by 3 distinct scientific studies. Below you can see a chart from one study that compares individuals using normal footwear during exercise versus individuals using Kangoo Jumps. This graph is taken from a study that was done at the
 
HYPERLINK “http://kangoojumps.com/in.php?doc=72” \t “_top”

Consequently, Kangoo Jumps are the Worlds’s Lowest Impact Shoes.
Their impact reduction also significantly enhances the healing process after sport injures or surgery, relieves pain, and provides the opportunity to exercise in a way that will also alliviate some of the symptoms of diseases such as arthritis, diabetes, etc.
 
University of Nevada by Jason Vance and John A. Mercer.
 
Your Spine. Eliminate most back pain
 
Kangoo Jumps, due to the inherent nature of their design, encourage proper posture in order to maintain balance and coordination while performing aerobic exercises or running. The balance involved while using Kangoo Jumps, which is very safe and easily mastered, stimulates the spinal and extremity joint mechanoreceptors which are essential for proper balance and proprioceptive skills. Pronation and supination are greatly reduced due to the fact that foot placement is dynamically influenced by balance which forces the patient into a conscious gait pattern.

Rebounding with Kangoo Jumps has a positive influence on spinal and intervertebral disc health by providing maximum spinal imbibition. This, of course, is essential for the proper transfer of nutrients into the disc and the removal of metabolic waste products out of the disc, thereby maintaining and restoring intervertebral health and function.

Weight Loss                                                                                   

“I hadn’t been able to jog or attend aerobic classes for years due to my knee surgery and excess weight. It really feels great to be able to exercise again and to have so much fun at the same time”

Forget Crazy Diets!                                                             

Using Kangoo Jumps for only a few minutes every day helps to develop that balance between food consumption and exercise. So forget crazy diets 　
 
Rebound exercise has been found to be the most effective way to “re-prime the pump” and keep it going, due to the up & down swinging in a low impact environment, like with Kangoo Jumps.
 
The lymphatic system also monitors our metabolism.
 
As we get older, we seem to put on more weight, which becomes harder and harder to lose.

Studies have shown that our base metabolic rate, which is the rate that our bodies burn calories, decreases as our lymphatic system becomes less efficient.

As we regularly use Kangoo Jumps, our base metabolic rate will become increasingly more efficient, resulting in noticeable improvements in our muscle tone, and weight management. In fact, we are actually re-training each cell to perform as it did when we were younger. Once we have re-set our metabolism, we will burn more calories at a higher rate, and will not regain weight, if we continue using Kangoo Jumps.

Your daily gentle workout will be most enjoyable listening to music. You can learn Kangoo Jumps basic steps and much more from our video “Home Fitness & Weight Loss”.

While we stress the importance of eating a balanced diet, we are actually more concerned with adding a pleasurable, non strenuous exercise element to your life, with Kangoo Jumps.
 
University studies show clearly that you spend much more energy, or calories, using Kangoo Jumps, compared to usual sport shoes. However, this alone does not explain the dramatic weight loss stated by people who have been using Kangoo Jumps regularly.

The secret lies in the lymphatic system. The lymph is the liquid which circulates in-between our cells, to carry the wastes and toxins, out of our body, keeping it healthy.

Most of us are unaware that our bodies contain four times as much lymph fluid as blood. However our lymphatic system, which is also our immune system, does not have a pump, like the heart, to keep its liquid in motion. It depends on our natural movements for circulation! If we don’t move enough, excess levels of toxin actually clutters our lymphatic system and “poisons” our cells. In some places the lymph fluid actually crystallizes into cellulite, which many of us know is hard to eliminate.

Rebounding could practically be described as a “heart exercise”, since in using Kangoo Jumps your legs are the primary limbs physically active.

I’m enjoying the Kangoo Jumps so much !! It has really changed my life.  
So far I’ve lost 30 pounds – I have 10 to go…..my legs and stomach is toning so much – it’s amazing – with that said – I did change the way I eat – but I exercise 6 days a week – where I barely could make two days because of my knees – If you have stickers for the Kangoos Jumps for cars I would love to put it on my car – When I believe in something like this and it changes my life – I would be happy to advertise for you!!

Thanks!!!
Yours Truly!!

Hi,
Since March 2005, I used Kangoo Jumps boots and I lost more than 15 pounds.
I own all of your kangoo jumps DVDs. I have “Urban Rebounding” DVDs and I used the boots instead of rebounder trampoline. I felt more comfortable to wear boots than rebounder trampoline while I exercised. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Julie Freitas USA

I am absolutely hooked on the kangoos and I would not contemplate running in anything else. I have no background in fitness; I am an ordinary relatively fit person, but I have never liked jogging because of the bad effect it had on my neck and lower back.
Years ago I purchased a rebounder but found jumping on the spot rather tedious. When I came across the kangoos
I thought I found the perfect tool to get fitter without being bored: I could rebound and at the same time be outside in the park and on the move!
I have been using them only for a couple of months and I am enjoying them so much that the benefits I get out of them are outweighing the initial embarrassment of seemingly being the only one in them! (Although yesterday I was at a party and somebody told me there is another girl jumping in the Clapham area!)
The last couple of times I used them, I ran 10 km which for a new runner like me is a great achievement.
In fact I am thinking of running the marathon next year, as you gather the kangoos are sold to me!

 People ask me about the Kangoo Jumps all the time and have inquired over the years as to how to sell them!- they enable me to walk without pain (I have 5 herniated disks in my back and neck and bad knees).
It has been more than 7 years ago that I bought a pair of Kangoo Jumps for myself and my daughter at Fashion Valley Mall in San Diego. The kiosk is LONG gone, my daughter has outgrown her’s, I still wear them regularly. and people stop me all the time!

Many thanks!

Hi
I have kangoojumps and now I am in online business. We sell medical supplies and medical equipment and I would like to put your banner on our website because I think your product is great.
I had a car accident 6 month ago and now I can only run with kangoojumps and they are great.

Thank you.

Got my Kangoos today and despite the British weather (lots of rain) I decided to brave it out and give them a go. Being 6ft 3″ without the shoes I feel like a giant in them but they were superb, and a quick go round the block soon turned into a 7 mile run.

I didn’t have the knee support on that I usually wear with my other running shoes and I didn’t have the slightest twinge what so ever on my bad knee.

I think I am probably the only person with a pair around here as boy did everyone stare and look at them as I was running. No end of kids / teenagers I passed asked me where I got them from and commented, “They are mint”.

I can’t wait to go running in them again. :

Forgot to tell you and Denis my greatest testimony. Prior to using the KJ’s, I had injuries in my right knee and hip, which prevented me from running. In addition, I have a herniated disc in my lower back which causes Sciatica in the nerve running down the back of my leg. I was unable to jog or run without pain in the knee and hip, so I ceased from running for about two years. Since purchasing and using the KJ’s, I no longer have any pain in my knee or hip, and the disc in my lower back no longer causes any problems. Mind you, that I run everyday outdoors for an hour at an aerobic pace of 140-150 BPM. I can only contribute this rehabilitation to the KJ’s, which I believe have strengthened the muscles, joints, and ligaments in these areas. Needless to say, I am very pleased with the results, and happy that I can once again enjoy running pain free!

Dr. Dan U.S.A.
The only way I jog is with Kangoo Jumps. One day, I hope to see Kangoo Jumps in my local Sports store.

I am very happy that Kangoo Jumps is still improving and experimenting with the design. I feel lucky that your company exists – KJs allow me to run without damaging my back.
My KJs are one of the most important things I own!

After breaking my knee, I was told I had to stop running forever. Kangoo Jumps have allowed me to continue running. I would be happy to do anything to help you improve your product, they are an absolute must for me!
Like I said Kangoo Jumps have meant the difference between being able to continue a life time of running and never running again. I would be honored if you use my testimonial. Please let me know if you need more info on what happened.
I am a city manager. I manage the City of Angels Camp, Calaveras County, California. In addition, I am a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve. Last year I completed a two year assignment as a battalion commander. Kangoo Jumps helped me train for the Army Physical Readiness Test where I surpassed the maximum score and set the record for my unit. Believe me that was no easy task for a 44 year old man, and given my knee injury, it would have been impossible without the Kangoo Jumps.

I wanted to share with you a brief testimony of my results using Kangoo Jumps. Prior to using the KJ’s, I had been an avid trail runner for many years. I had experienced significant pain in my lower back (L4-L5) region, and an MRI confirmed that I had a degenerative, herniated disc, which was pressing on my sciatic nerve causing a condition known as Sciatica. Since my condition was degenerative, there was no prognosis for recovery. In addition, I had to discontinue all running, as I had incurred injuries to my right knee and hip which were exaggerated by my running. I discontinued running for a period of 2 years, at which point I discovered your wonderful product. I must admit that I was skeptical upon first seeing the Kangoo Jumps, but was desperate to find a way to resume running. It has been 4 months since I have purchased the KJ’s, and I cannot offer enough praise for this product. Not only have I been able to resume running, but I have done so completely pain-free! I can only contribute my rehabilitation to the KJ’s, as they have strengthened the muscles, joints, and ligaments in the areas where I had experienced injuries. I run approximately 1 to 1 ½ hours daily on the KJ’s at an aerobic pace of 150-160 BPM. I run on pavement, trails, and professional track and the KJ’s are always up to the challenge. I have never enjoyed exercise this much in my life, where I actually seek every opportunity I can to use the KJ’s. I have recommended them to my patients, and they have been pleased with the results as well. Furthermore, I wish to express my appreciation to both Sue and Denis at the Head Office for their excellent customer support. I will continue to be an avid supporter of Kangoo Jumps, and offer cheers to the Kangoo Jumps team for the creation of this wonderful product as well as their ongoing commitment.
