DESCRIPTION
The ValguLoc II splint corrects hallux valgus misalignment of the big toe at rest and while moving. During the day and at night, it helps to prevent the progression of the painful deformity and thus protects against possible long-term effects like osteoarthritis or misalignment of the little toes. It features a three-dimensional adjustable joint to individually adjust the correction angle to the shape of the foot in accordance with the therapeutic aim. The angle setting also remains intact during the heel-to-toe movement of the big toe. Flexion and extension can also be gradually limited. This allows the ValguLoc II to immobilize the metatarsophalangeal joint after surgeries, and free it up step by step during the mobilization phase to protect it against excessive strain. It also offers support during the nonsurgical functional treatment of the misalignment. The orthosis is anatomically contoured and lays flat against the foot. This means ValguLoc II will not cause pressure points and can be worn in comfortable shoes. The inside of the half-cup is comfortably padded and offers excellent wearing comfort. The orthosis can be worn on the right and left foot.
YOUR TOE ON THE HOME STRETCH
ValguLoc supports the aligned position of the big toe after surgery or prevents a misalignment from getting worse. It is used during the night as a postural splint. The functional design guarantees a correct fitting of the orthosis: The correction pressure is continuously adjustable using the Velcro® Brand Fastening System.
WORKS WHILE YOU REST
ValguLoc works while your foot is resting: The anatomically contoured stabilizing orthosis helps to align your toe and is not suitable for walking. The half-shell construction also offers slight protection against external hazards. On the inside, low-fatigue cushioning increases wearing comfort and protects against pressure points.
