Biofresh HAV Splint is a resting splint, only for static use (e.g. sleeping). It applies a 3-point pressure system to relieve the hallux valgus deformity.
Hallux Valgus/Bunion - deviation of the big toe towards the outer side. - maybe due to inheritance, hyperpronated foot, or improper shoe fitting (extreme narrow or pointed shoe). - may form and cause problems while wearing shoes and overlapping of toes may result in severe cases.
How to use: 1. Release the velcro strap and apply the HAV Splint on the big toe. 2. Draw the velcro beneath the foot and across the foot dorsum (foot’s upper surface), let the velcro pass through the slit of the plastic clasp. 3. Tighten the velcro and secure it until the big toe appears to be correctly positioned. Warning: It is not suggested to use HAV Splint when severe bunion and stiffness of the first big toe joint exists. If toe pain arises after using HAV Splint, stop using it immediately, and consult a specialist if necessary.
