In previous HuffPost reporting, podiatrist Dr. Gary Evans explained that toe separators, spacers and stretchers can help alleviate foot pain from issues like bunions by temporarily realigning toes and reducing pressure on their joints. If you’ve been hoping to find a solution to foot pain that doesn’t break the bank and has been backed by thousands of reviewers, look no further than ZenToes’ gel toe separators, which shoppers say are a “lifesaver” that’s “perfect in every way.”
In that previous HuffPost story, Evans said, “Gel bunion splints can often reduce pressure on the bunion and help reduce pressure of the adjacent toes,” and though he didn’t specifically name a product, these ZenToes correctors are a perfect example. Made with a soft, flexible gel silicone that’s washable with soap and water, the separators are designed to slip over your second toe and pad your big toes to keep them in place and feeling comfortable.
For less than $20, you can get a four-pack in several different colors, including clear and a couple different skin tones. The correctors are one size fits all, and reviewers say each one can stretch and doesn’t irritate the skin, to the point that “I hardly know it’s being worn.” People have worn them to work out and even to bed — that’s how comfortable they feel.
