Evaluation of Toe Separators in Foot Health

Participants will be instructed to wear standard, commercially available silicone toe separators during a single evaluation session. The intervention consists of applying the separators between the toes while the participant is barefoot, both in static standing and while walking on a treadmill equipped with a Zebris pressure analysis system. Measurements will be taken immediately before and after the application, including plantar pressure distribution, intermetatarsal spacing (via imaging), digital circulation (via thermography and visual assessment), foot posture (using the Foot Posture Index - FPI-6), and subjective comfort levels (via Visual Analog Scale). The toe separators are not customized and reflect common consumer-grade devices marketed for podiatric or wellness purposes.
