Physiotherapy Room Metatarsal Pads

MetPad Placement Instructions

1. Remove the sock liner from your footwear.
2. Locate the imprint of your foot on the sock liner (if well used) if not, go to number 5.
3. Place the widest edge (arrow will point towards your toes) within the MIDDLE of the balls of the toes (metatarsal heads).
4. Once the placement is determined, peel back the adhesive tape by creasing the leading edge, folding it back and peeling back halfway. Place the leading edge (arrow direction) as described and center so that the rear narrow edge lines up with the center of your heel. Place firmly.
   Note: The leading edge should just contact the middle allowing for the bulk of the Met Pad to begin just behind the balls of the toes. This is normal placement.
5. If your sock liners are new or not worn long enough to determine a footprint:
• Place your foot on the sock liner as it would be in your shoe.
• Tuck a finger under the MIDDLE of the balls of the toes just behind (towards the heel) the balls. Once the spot is determined, lift your foot off and mark the location with a small line.
• Now use the directions from number 3.

Repeat the above instructions for your other foot.

***Note: the met pad placement on each shoe should be very close. If not, re – adjust. If still not relatively equal be advised that the difference in placement will feel even more awkward.

Give yourself 1-2 weeks of break in as Met Pads require time for the body / brain to adjust to the new positioning.
