 Hallux valgus can be defined as a progressive subluxation of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and lateral deviation of the hallux. This common foot condition is associated with altered gait patterns. Specifically reduced forward propulsion, leading to gait instability. Research has shown that foot problems and pain play a major role towards the contribution of falls in the adult population. There are currently two main interventions for the treatment of hallux valgus: surgery and orthotic prescription. There has not been a lot of research performed evaluating the effects of custom orthotic prescription on hallux valgus.
