Wearing the Epitact Rigid Bunion Corrector at night helps to realign your toe and slow the progression of the Hallux Valgus. It protects your foot at night, helping to ease pressure, discomfort and painful contact with mattress and sheets.

The rigid Bunion Corrector can easily be thermoformed to fit your foot: it becomes soft when placed in hot water. Once in place (with included toe spacer), the brace adapts to the shape of your foot while relaxng your big toe. It hardens and becomes rigid within several minutes, providing you with a custom-made night brace. Lightweight and ultra-slim, it is forgotten once sleeping. Can be thermoformed several times, so you can gradually realign your big toe.
  • Realigns your big toe and relieves pain.
  • Machine washable, reusable and made of resistant fabric so it can be used daily for several months
  • Can be heat-moulded on either the right or the left foot.
  • Customised correction and comfort.
  • For night wear or when at rest.
Directions for Use:
Why and how to heat-mould the bunion splint?
The process of thermoforming consists of shaping the bunion corrector according to your own foot curves. It allows to gradually increase the degree of correction for comfortable and customised action. You can heat-mould it at home 4 to 5 times, in a few minutes. It includes 4 steps:

1- Place the provided silicone pad on the blue target against the bunion.

2- Soften the thermoplastic reinforcement by plunging the big toe straightener into hot water.

3- Straighten your big toe with the provided separator (the 1st time) or by hand (the next times).

4- Put on the brace and wait a few minutes until the reinforcement cools and becomes hard again.
