Product Description
Beneficial for people with Turf-Toe, arthritis in the toe known as Hallux Limitus Rigidus and/or bunions. Developed after realizing that many of his patients could not tolerate the thickness and stiffness of carbon plates or the short span of support for traditional athletic taping in their athletic shoes. The streamline nature of the sleeve incorporated with the splint was perfect for patient compliance.
The key is the dynamic springboard action under the big toe joint or first metatarsal. The splint uses the concept of the tension band. This distributes forces across the length of the entire metatarsal instead of directly on the joint during the toe off segment of walking or running known as propulsion. The other therapeutic benefit is the medical grade compression which helps to protect the joints and limit swelling. The use of a sophisticated yet simple designed splint may avoid other treatments ranging from cortisone shots to surgical intervention.
