Even if you lead an active lifestyle, the Hallyufix orthopedic splint corrects the toe joint, and also reduces pain in the big toe and distributes the load on the foot and the entire leg when walking.
The Hallufix splint is easy to put on both the right and left legs. Unlike a traditional rigid orthopedic splint for Hallux Valgus (otherwise known as a night brace), this patented articulating splint system can be used for everyday weightbearing.
By using a hinge at the hallux valgus site of the big toe, wearing a hallux valgus splint maintains the natural flexibility of the main joint of the big toe. The chip also corrects the gait when wearing almost any shoes. The Hallufix hallux valgus splint provides protection and correction to your foot joints, wherever you are.
How does it work?
The splint is a device that has a plastic base with soft straps to regulate the circumference of the foot, fixing the joints in the anatomically correct position. The Hallufix articulated splint is attached to the bone of the first toe and corrects its direction by changing the angle of inclination. Among the existing bandages for the correction of hallux valgus, this model is universal for use day and night.
The use of the Hallufix orthosis is effective both for the prevention of valgus and for the treatment of protruding bunions. In addition, this product can relieve transverse flat feet, which is the cause of hallux valgus. Proper use of the tire causes positive effects:
While wearing the device, the foot is less strained.
- fixing the foot in the correct position;
- relieving tension while moving;
- correction of the direction of the first finger;
- anesthesia;
- protection and support of the joint in the postoperative period;
- prevention of relapse of the disease.
Operating principle of the Hallufix articulated rail
Unlike night braces, which simply pull the big toe (and not always in the right direction), the Hallufix hallux valgus splint has a precisely designed anatomical design based on a hinge, thanks to which it is not only possible, but also necessary to walk during the day.
At this time, the Hallyufix orthopedic splint returns the foot to its anatomical position, preventing it from spreading even more while walking, and corrects transverse flatfoot, the main cause of hallux valgus. And be sure to sleep in a splint at night, since orthopedic scientists have proven that the deformity continues to develop even when the legs are at rest.
The operating principle is complex and lies in the fact that the bandage:
- reduces the load on the big toe and distributes it along the foot
- reduces curvature, returning the joint to its previous position
- corrects the transverse arch of the foot, expanding the muscles
- significantly reduces pain in the joint area
- corrects gait
- maintains the natural mobility of the joint and protects it
The splint can be used to prevent the appearance of bunions, treat Hallux Valgus, and also after surgery on the thumb joint to shorten the rehabilitation period and fix it in the desired position.
Correct use of the Hallufix hallux valgus splint
To wear the device during the day, you need to choose shoes that will not aggravate the problem.
At first, during wearing, the patient may experience slight discomfort, which is associated with an unusual position for the foot. As the joints begin to get used to it, the time of use can be increased to several hours a day and left overnight. At the same time, if the patient is prescribed to wear an orthosis during the day, then the correct shoes should be chosen to avoid pressure on the bone.
For longer use, you should regularly wash the product by hand in a soapy solution, which will prevent it from stretching or deforming. The absence of metal parts on the tire prevents the formation of rust. In addition, you should remember that you need to put on the orthosis only on clean feet. Sometimes additional application of cream or ointment is acceptable.
Improperly securing the splint to the foot, wearing shoes that are too tight, or purchasing an unlicensed device leads to further deformation of the foot and aggravates the disease.
Hallufix valgus splint, Hallufix orthopedic splint
Misalignment of the foot joint creates unsightly bumps on the big toes. Hallufix valgus joint splint , also known as Hallufix splint, was developed by scientists and orthopedists to reduce the load on the big toe joint and pain in the big toe area when walking. It corrects the joint of the big toe when it is misaligned (medical term: hallux valgus).
Even if you lead an active lifestyle, the Hallyufix orthopedic splint corrects the toe joint, and also reduces pain in the big toe and distributes the load on the foot and the entire leg when walking.
The Hallufix splint is easy to put on both the right and left legs. Unlike a traditional rigid orthopedic splint for Hallux Valgus (otherwise known as a night brace), this patented articulating splint system can be used for everyday weightbearing.
By using a hinge at the hallux valgus site of the big toe, wearing a hallux valgus splint maintains the natural flexibility of the main joint of the big toe. The chip also corrects the gait when wearing almost any shoes. The Hallufix hallux valgus splint provides protection and correction to your foot joints, wherever you are.
How the Hallufix hallux valgus splint works
The Hallufix orthopedic splint gradually returns the foot to its natural shape, protects and reduces Hallux Valgus. By means of a bandage, the curvature of the big toe is reduced, the muscle tissue of the foot of the main joint of the big toe is expanded, and the joint is corrected while walking.
Thanks to the device of the metatarsal girth of the foot and the toe bandage, the load on the big toe is corrected, that is, with the help of a splint, the leg susceptible to Hallux Valgus can bend naturally and without pain.
In addition, the transversal arch support helps restore the metatarsal arch (transverse arch of the foot) relative to the vertical axis. The outwardly displaced foot is ideally supported by a valgus splint. The bandage combines the corrective function of joint displacement and the function of correcting the transverse arch of the foot.
Application of Hallufix chips after surgery
After foot surgery, during rehabilitation (after the sutures have completely healed), it is recommended to use a valgus splint to stabilize the surgical adjustment of the toe.
Hallufix chips effectively consolidate the result of the operation and protect the leg even during strenuous walking. You can avoid wearing large special boots all the time. The post-operative phase of rehabilitation is shortened!

Hallufix valgus orthopedic splint: product overview
The Hallyufix splint is an effective solution that allows you to forget about a protruding bunion on your foot. Such a product will painlessly relieve the problem, as it will reduce the level of load on the thumb joint.
Description and principle of operation of the product
The German Hallufix valgus orthopedic splint, or splint, is a product developed by orthopedists and scientists to reduce stress and relieve pain in the affected area. She can correct a protruding big toe joint if it has become misaligned. The action of the chips is also aimed at uniformly distributing the load on the foot when running and walking.
This device is suitable for both right and left legs. Compared to traditional hard chips, Hallufix can be worn daily. Thanks to the hinge, the natural flexibility of the thumb will be maintained.
This device is also aimed at correcting gait during movement. But it is worth considering that the foot increases by about 7 mm in width.
This splint guarantees reliable protection of joints and corrects them, regardless of the location of the person.
The device gradually returns the foot to its natural shape, and also reliably protects the big toe from curvature. The chip noticeably reduces distortion, expands muscle tissue, and as a result corrects the bone while walking.
The metatarsal girth of the foot allows you to adjust the load on the joint of the big toe, due to which it flexes and extends without pain. With the help of a transversal arch support, the transverse arch of the foot is restored.
