How to Make Thick Ugly Fungus Toenails Thinner Naturally?

Mycosis  of the toenails are a fungal infection of  the nails that makes the nails thicker, discolored and  sometimes painful. The fungus growth causes the build up of debris under the nail. The thicken nail from the fungus makes it difficult to treat and trim. A simple and inexpensive way to treat the thick nail is to slowly dissolve the nail's fungal thick toe debris with natural digestive enzymes that are infused in NailZyme. Natural enzymes will slowly make the fungal toenail thinner. Patients using NailZyme twice a day see positive results within 3-4 weeks. NailZyme has been used safely for several years by medical professionals.

Nailzyme fungal nail solution contains natural digestive enzymes infused into Jojoba Oil, Tea Tree Oil, Peppermint Oil, and Sesame Oil. Digestive enzymes used are Protease, Lipase, Amylase, Lactase, Cellulase, and Bromelain. Using Nailzyme over 3-4 weeks will lighten, soften and thins thick fungus toenails. This all natural nail solution allows the toenail to be trimmed easier.  Apply 1-2 drops to thick toenail twice per day. 1 bottle lasts about one to three months.

Morton's Neuroma Treated With Ball of Foot Metatarsal Pads

Morton's Neuroma can be treated conservatively with ball of foot metatarsal pads. Morton's Neuroma is a pinched nerve in the ball of the foot. It occurs when the nerve travelling between the 3rd and 4th metatarsal heads become inflamed. With the constant irritation of the nerve, scar tissue forms around it. The thicker the nerve becomes with scar tissue, the more the nerve will rub between the bones.

Some common treatments for Morton's Neuroma are wider shoes, stop wearing high heel shoes, NSAIDs, cortisone injection and surgery. One inexpensive, easy to use treatment for Morton's Neuroma is a specially designed stick on foot pad, a neuroma foot pad. Neuroma Metatarsal Foot Pads are meant to relieve pressure on the pinched nerve in between the metatarsal heads (ball of foot). Neuroma pads are metatarsal cushions designed to relieve pressure and stress on the metatarsal joints to "float" the pinched intermetatarsal nerve by spreading the ball of foot with our metatarsal pads.

These foot pads decrease pain and pressure on foot callus, joints, sesamoids, Morton's neuroma.
Our Neuroma Ball of Foot pads are medical quality foot products, made in the USA. Place the foot pads just below the metatarsal heads to optimum relief.

How to Make Your Own Custom Arch Support Orthotic

When your physician, podiatrist, chiropractor or physical therapist  thinks it’s time to start using arch support orthotics, finding the right fit is of paramount importance. You may think that getting fitted for custom foot orthotics is a complicated process requiring time, money and expensive equipment. However, getting the support your feet need is actually easier than you think! When you order thermoplastic heat moldable orthotic arch support insoles, achieving a glove-like fit during an can be done in as little as 10 minutes. Best of all, Atlas Biomechanics crafts orthotic inserts for each type of wear. Our heat molded insoles are available for dress shoes and athletic footwear, as well as in prefabricated models.

Heating the Orthotic Blank

There are 3 Ways to Heat the Blank
1) Purchase a heat gun (not a hair dryer) and heat resistant gloves at any hardware store.
Place the blank on a surface that will not burn from heat.
Hold the heat gun 1cm (1/2 inch) away from the blank.
Slowly move the heat gun up and down the blank.
Do not stop moving the heat gun ( you will melt the orthotic).
The average time is about 1.5-2 minutes.
Wearing heat resistant gloves you may push the arch to check for softness.
If it is still stiff, reheat for 10-15 seconds.

2) Boil water and turn off heat.
Wait 1 minute and then place the orthotic blank in the hot water.
Let the orthotic blank sit in the water for 1 minute.
Using a heat resistant gloves place the orthotic under the shoe's insole.
Step into the shoe and press down for 2 minutes to mold the orthotic to your foot
3) Atlas Biomechanics also recommends using a toaster oven at 200 degrees.

Heat Moldable Orthotics come in athletic or dress  profile

Molding the Orthotic Blank to the Foot

You can mold the blank either as Subtalar Neutral or Calcaneal Resting Position, or a combo of each.
You can mold the blank while sitting, standing in a shoe (ski boot, ice skate, golf shoe or ballet flats) or on
a pillow.
Do not mold directly to the foot. Use a heat protector such as a towel, double socks or the shoe's insole.
Make sure the rear of the orthotic is not too far forward on the foot.
Make sure the medial side of the orthotic covers the arch entirely.
Either hold the foot in Subtalar Joint Neutral or Calcaneal Resting Position and have the patient press firmly down.
If molding directly in a gym shoe, use the insole as the heat protector. Place the orthotic under the insole and have the patient press down.
After the patient has molded the orthotic, place it in their shoes. It is most comfortable under the insole.


Break in Period

As with any new device in their shoe, there is a break in period.
If using the orthotic in gym shoes, place it under the insole.
If wearing it in dress shoes, use a little double sided tape to hold in place.
Have the patient wear the orthotic only 2 hours the first day.
Every additional day increase the time by 2 hours.
It uncomfortable, have them remove the orthotic, wait 2 hours and resume the break in period.
Atlas Biomechanics reccomends the patient return in two weeks for a follow-up and fine tuning of the orthotic.


Molding Tips

To avoid any problems, you want the patient to be happy with the fit before they leave the office.
Make sure the orthotic is feeling fine to the patient and fits well.
Remember this orthotic can be modified endless ways with the heat gun.
Sometimes the patient will feel that the arch is either too high or low, modify it to their comfort level.
You may see waves in the orthotic. This is the bony prominences of the foot that have been captured in the orthotic and is an accurate mold that should be comfortable on the foot.
