What are Bunions?
The Pathomechanics of Joint Drift
A Bunion (Hallux Valgus) is not just a bump; it is a dislocation of the big toe joint (1st MPJ). While footwear plays a role, the root cause is often biomechanical instability, specifically overpronation.
When the foot rolls inward (pronation) excessively, it unlocks the midfoot and puts abnormal pressure on the side of the big toe. Over time, this force pushes the big toe toward the second toe, causing the joint to bulge outward and become inflamed.
Common Symptoms:
- A bony bump on the side of the big toe joint.
- Redness, swelling, and soreness around the joint.
- The big toe turning inward toward the other toes.
- Pain when wearing shoes or walking.
Fast Facts
- Prevalence: Affects 1 in 3 adults, more common in women.
- Risk: Heredity and flat feet are major risk factors.
- Correction: Orthotics can slow or stop progression without surgery.

Treating the Root Cause of Bunions Pain
Instability & Crowding
Generic insoles are often too bulky, crowding the toe box and increasing pain. More importantly, they fail to stop the pronation that causes the bunion to deviate further.
Neutral Alignment
We custom-mill your orthotic to your exact arch profile. This "locks" the foot in neutral, removing the pressure from the big toe joint without taking up excess room in your shoe.
