After several prototypes, they achieved the proper device capable of reducing the oppression in the bunion, relieve discomfort, helped her dance more comfortably and, in addition, use the appropriate pointe shoe size for her foot. Since 2002, Tamara uses the same first two Pointe Shoe Anti-Bunion Stretcher manufactured at the time.
