A Kenyan medical expert, Dr. Hamisi Kote Ali, has sparked curiosity online after revealing that he has been walking barefoot for the past five years, even while attending official meetings.
Dr. Hamisi, a fascial manipulation specialist and founder of the Human Garage Wellness Group, shared his experience in a TikTok video, where he was seen dressed in a suit but without shoes.
“This is how I attend meetings as a barefoot doctor. It has been five years now that I’ve gone without wearing shoes, even during official meetings,” he wrote in the post.
According to Dr. Hamisi, his decision to ditch footwear is intentional and rooted in health benefits.
“I choose not to wear shoes for my well-being. You’ve probably noticed how it looks good to wear a suit without shoes! Try removing your shoes today and practice walking barefoot,” he stated.
He went into further detail about the science behind barefoot walking in the post’s comment section, highlighting its benefits for pain management and general health.
“Grounding reduces pain and alters the numbers of circulating neutrophils and lymphocytes. It also affects various circulating chemical factors related to inflammation,” he explained.
Encouraging others to try it out, he added:
“After a year, you’ll be able to tell me how you feel. Still the barefoot doctor.”
His unconventional lifestyle choice has sparked discussions, with many intrigued by the idea of grounding and its potential health benefits.
