1. Hallux Limitus is a progressive condition and should be treated as early as possible. These insoles will provide the arch support that keeps the pressure off the big toe joint and you should start wearing them immediately.
2. Remove any loose insole or liner from the footwear to maximise the benefit of the Salford insole.
3. Insert your new insoles – they are marked left and right on the underside.
4. Your insoles should have an immediate effect and improve your toe joint's range of movement  – no “wearing in” period is required.
5. They might feel unusual but not uncomfortable. In the unlikely event that they do feel uncomfortable or if there is no beneficial impact on your symptoms, then remove the insoles and seek advice from a qualified practitioner.

 

Important: You are advised to wear your insoles whenever practical, changing them between shoes as necessary. It is easy to point at a period of activity for causing your toe joint pain, but walking around the house on flat surfaces can easily be just as much to blame.

 

CARE INSTRUCTIONS

 

Your Salford insoles can be machine washed quite safely at 30 – 40°C or simply wiped clean with a cloth and soapy water.

 

There is no need to tumble dry them.

We offer a 60-day return period, starting from the day after your delivery arrives. If you wish to return an item, please contact us within this period using the links on our contact page for instructions.

The insoles were developed from research into foot biomechanics at the University of Salford and have been used in podiatry clinics for more than 15 years.

 

They are a registered medical device, designed and manufactured in the UK.

Hallux limitus is characterised by pain, stiffness and restricted movement in the big toe joint, often with a bony enlargement on top of the joint.

 

Overpronation causes the arch to flatten excessively and the foot to roll inward during walking, restricting movement of the big toe at push-off. This increases pressure through the joint and, over time, contributes to cartilage wear.

 

Firm arch support insoles control overpronation, reduce strain through the big toe joint and allow the toe to move more freely.
