EverMend EMS Bunion Corrector: Safety Information

Please read this before your first use and keep it for reference. The EverMend EMS Bunion Corrector uses light electrical muscle stimulation. It is intended for adults and for use on the foot only.

Do not use this device if you:

  • Have a pacemaker, implanted defibrillator, or any other implanted metal or electronic device (including a drug pump). It can cause shock, burns, interference with the device, or death.
  • Have heart disease or epilepsy, unless your doctor has approved use.
  • Are pregnant, or think you may be. Safety in pregnancy has not been established.
  • Have a blood clot, thrombophlebitis, or other circulation problem in the legs or feet.
  • Have undiagnosed foot or leg pain. Pain is a warning sign, and stimulation can mask it.
  • Have had recent foot surgery, or are under medical care for your foot, unless your doctor has cleared you.
  • Have reduced sensation in your foot, for example from diabetes or nerve damage, because you may not feel a setting that is too strong.

Do not use on:

  • Any area near a cancerous lesion.

  • Do not use while driving, operating machinery, bathing, showering, swimming, or sleeping.
  • Keep the device dry. Do not put it in water. Clean only with a damp cloth and mild soap.
  • Start on the lowest setting and increase slowly. Stop immediately if you feel pain, burning, or discomfort.
  • Do not use it near cardiac monitors or other electronic medical equipment.
  • Do not wear it for longer than 12H or more than 5 times per day.
  • Check the device and straps for damage before each use. Stop using it if anything is damaged.
