Modern footwear, although stylish, can often restrict toe and foot function. This can lead to pain, stiffness and instability. Paw Spreaders can help feet get back to their natural form by increasing space between toes and encouraging foot muscles to relax. Flexible, strong and resilient feet are happy feet!
Recommended use for the Paw Spreaders:
- Week 1-2:
- 20 minutes/day when relaxing or doing low-moderate activity
- Week 3-4:
- Increase to 1hr, adding 20 minutes every day
- Week 5-6:
- Wear in shoes that allow for comfort (barefoot shoes) during the day, during low-moderate-high activity OR overnight
- Always make sure to avoid pain, numbness and tingling
- Combine with Myoball and foot and ankle exercises to maximize foot health
Benefits of using the Paw Spreaders:
- Gently stretches and relaxes tense muscles between toes and deep within the foot
- Relieves foot pain by reducing excess tension
- Improves proprioception (i.e., your body’s ability to communicate from feet to brain)
- Improves blood and lymphatic flow to/from myofascial tissues in the feet
- Helps correct muscle imbalances in the feet, which could improve knee, hip and back issues
- When toes are splayed, feet have a larger surface area, which enables them to have a much more stable connection with the ground
Cleaning:
- Clean with soap and water, then let air dry or use a towel. Do not dry in the sun.
Material:
