Provided is an device for stabilizing the center of gravity and/or correcting distortion of the body simply through wearing of the appliance on a toe and conducting normal activities. The following invention is provided by the present invention. A cylindrical correction device that corrects distortion of the body, wherein: the correction device has inward-facing triangular-prism-shaped protrusions on the inner circumference; the triangles are inclined in one direction with respect to the circumference; and the correction device comprises a cylindrical elastic material having a diameter of 7-20 mm, a width of 5-10 mm, a thickness of 1-3 mm, and a hardness of 4-6.

The present application generally relates to support articles and methods of making and using them. The support articles of the present disclosure provide compression and/or stabilization of sore joints of muscles. In some embodiments, the compression and/or enhanced stabilization is provided, at least in part, by one or more straps. In some embodiments, the support articles also include one or more reinforcing portions. In some embodiments, the support articles can easily be applied by a non-trained user and can be worn in many conditions (including, for example, in the shower or during exercise) for up to three days. The support articles have a relatively slim profile and are thus discreet such that they can be worn under clothing without being noticeable.

A toe correction apparatus and a method for manufacturing the same are provided. The toe correction apparatus includes: a first sensor attachable to a first side of a hallux proximate to a second toe for measuring first pressure information between the hallux and the second toe; and a processor, configured to determine a degree to which the hallux bends to the second toe according to the first pressure information, and control an inflation amount or a deflation amount of an adjustable airbag between the hallux and the second toe according to the degree to which the hallux bends to the second toe.

Provided is a toe stimulus imparting supporter configured to impart a stimulus to toes in a state where the toes are inserted into the toe stimulus imparting supporter. The toe stimulus imparting supporter includes: a body portion formed of an elastic stretchable member having a strip shape; toe inserting portions through which the toes are insertable, the toe inserting portions formed in both end portions of the body portion in a longitudinal direction of the body portion; and indirect stimulus imparting protruding portions formed on both end portions of the body portion in a protruding manner outward from the body portion.

An adjustable toe plate for an adjustable boot brace adapted to aid in stretching and supporting inflamed tissues and/or an inflamed plantar fascia within a person's foot while healing. The adjustable toe plate includes a toe plate adjustment mechanism to adjust the angle of the toe plate with respect to its foot portion, such that a person can adjust the position and angle of their toes during the healing process.

A device protects the plantar padding of a foot, wherein: a cushion including a viscoelastic material, configured to be held against the skin of the plantar region, and covering all of the metatarsal heads and the metatarsophalangeal joints of the foot, and an elastic band attached to the cushion along two opposing transverse edges, and by a tab configured to pass between the big toe and the adjacent toe of the foot, the band having a width configured to entirely cover side bulges formed by the metatarsophalangeal joints of the small and big toes, wherein a portion of the band configured for contacting the top of the foot includes tacky elements on both sides thereof, thereby preventing the protective device from sliding on the skin when it is placed on the foot and inside a sock surrounding the foot.

A heel float therapeutic footwear for people that spend a large amount of time in bed. The heel float therapeutic footwear includes a lower leg support portion, a foot support portion, and a wing support structure. The foot support portion extends from the lower leg support portion and includes a foot support platform. The wing support structure is permanently attached to the foot support platform. The wing support structure is adjustably fastenable to a side of the lower leg support portion to adjustably support a position and an angle of the foot support platform with respect to the lower leg support portion. A method of making a heel float therapeutic footwear is also disclosed.

A device for correcting ingrowing foot nails. It comprises a base (101; 201; 301), on which there are mounted means (111, 112; 211, 212; 311) for immobilizing the toe with respect to the base (101; 201; 301), means (121; 221; 321) pressing the middle portion of the nail towards the base (101; 201; 301), slidable and pivotable means (131, 132; 231, 232; 331) for manipulating at the lateral edge of the nail and slidable and pivotable means (141; 241, 242; 341) for manipulating at the front portion of the nail.

An improved orthosis apparatus for being selectively formed and applied and removed having offset zipper closures on two shell members for improved hinging and opening and access for initial application and forming when malleable and for removing and reinstalling when hardened.

A toe corrector is provided including: a floor part; correction protrusions protruding between each toe from an upper surface of the floor part to correct the toes; a connection part for connecting the upper ends of the correction protrusions so that correction protrusions are put on toes to be fixed; and light emitting units for emitting light by independently generating electricity, which are provided inside the correction protrusions and on the floor part.
