When the deformation is large enough, the big toe is no longer able to perform its support function. The pressures are then transferred underneath the foot, at the base of the 2nd and 3rd toes. In these areas of hyper support, the consequences are felt quickly: a bunion forms and calluses appear. It becomes painful to walk. The objective is, then, to protect the bony excrescence that is the "bunion" and also to distribute the pressure under the foot. This is what EPITACT® double protection cushions do.
Properties: EPITHELIUM 26® is a silicone gel, patented by podiatrists, whose viscoelastic and mechanical characteristics resemble skin tissues. It distributes the body's weight over the entire support area and replaces the natural plantar layer, which is weakened, in addition to limiting friction in the bunion area.
Characteristics: The thickness of the bunion protection, just 1mm of gel, allows you to benefit from the advantages of EPITHELIUM 26®, without inducing additional pressure on the bunion. The plantar protection is 2.2 mm thick, which allows the weight of the body to be distributed over the entire support area and replaces the natural plantar layer, which is weakened.
Durability: Even washed regularly, they can be used daily for several months.
