Designed for sport, the EPITACT SPORT Hallux Valgus Orthosis in size S helps realign the big toe during movement while cushioning the bunion area inside footwear. Its ultra-thin, flexible design is created to fit inside sports shoes, while the external EPITHELIUMFLEX silicone tendon and counter-support pad help reduce pressure and repeated friction during walking or running.
Key Benefits:
- Helps realign the big toe during sporting activity.
- Helps limit pronation and optimize propulsion.
- Helps relieve joint discomfort and repeated rubbing on the bunion area in shoes.
- Ultra-thin, flexible and lightweight design made for use in sports footwear.
- Washable and reusable.
Active Ingredients:
- EPITHELIUMFLEX silicone tendon: applies traction to help guide the big toe into a better position during movement while helping protect the bony prominence from pressure and friction.
- EPITHELIUM counter-support pad: positioned behind the bunion area to support fit and targeted cushioning.
- Supportive wrap/bracelet: helps hold the orthosis securely on the forefoot during wear.
How to Use:
- Check that the big toe still has lateral mobility and that the hallux valgus is mild to moderate.
- Wash the orthosis before first use.
- Slip the forefoot into the wrap, then place the cap over the big toe.
- Position the EPITHELIUM pad behind the bunion area.
- At first use, do not try to fully realign the big toe. During the first 10 uses, progressively increase realignment by pulling the device backward.
- For best results, wear daily during sporting activity.
