Positioning
- Insert each toe gently into the corresponding gap.
- Pass the toe strap through the small hole and place the bent toe on the toe corrector.
- Wrap the strap around the toes to secure them in place.
- Adjust the position of the toe support for a comfortable fit without looseness.
Start Slowly
Begin with 15–30 minutes per day to let your feet adjust. Gradually increase usage to 1–2 hours daily or as comfortable.
Best Use Cases
- While relaxing at home (watching TV, reading, etc.)
- During light activities like yoga or stretching
- While sleeping (optional, use with socks to prevent slipping)
- Avoid wearing them inside tight or non-stretchable shoes.
With Shoes?
- Not recommended for use inside snug or formal shoes.
- You can wear them inside wider sneakers or with socks around the house.
Adjustment Period – Mild Discomfort Is Normal
- It’s completely normal to feel slight discomfort or pressure when you first start using the separators.
- That’s because your toes are beginning to realign, and the separators' material is adapting to the shape of your toes — while your toe is also adjusting to the new positioning.
- Think of it like wearing braces for your hammer toes: alignment takes time, and it’s not always a perfectly smooth process.
- Start slowly — 15 to 30 minutes a day is enough at first. Gradually increase the duration as your comfort improves.
- Be patient and consistent — most users begin noticing visible changes and relief after several days to weeks of regular use.
Cleaning Instructions
- Hand-wash with warm water and mild soap.
- Air dry completely before next use.
- Optional: Sprinkle a bit of talcum powder if material feels sticky.
