NEW & IMPROVED AS OF JANUARY 2017

Based on customer feedback - we are now including an optional rigid foot plate which you can insert into the bottom of the brace for more stability and a greater degree of stretch.

Plantar fasciitis is a common reason for pain in the heel and arch of the foot, particularly at the start of the day or when moving after sitting for a long time. Foot arch pain from plantar fasciitis is caused by repetitive stretching and tearing of the plantar fascia.

This foot brace provides a gentle dorsiflexion stretch to your plantar fascia as you sleep, slowly healing and conditioning the ligament. It is very lightweight and comfortable compared to other night splint boots, so it's less likely to disrupt your sleep.

How to use this Stretching Sock:

- Getting used to sleeping with your foot in a dorsiflexion position will likely take some time, but a sock like this is easier for most people to adjust to than a rigid boot.
- By adjusting the toe strap, you can change how much tension is applied to your plantar fascia.
- If the sock is uncomfortable, try lessening the degree of stretch by loosening the toe strap.
- You can also try to wear the splint for 1 hour at a time, before you go to bed, then work up to wearing it for the entire night.
- Need to make the toe strap shorter to provide a higher degree of stretch? Remove the Velcro end piece and fold the strap to shorten it, then reattach the end piece (as seen in the photo above).

This soft night splint is made of neoprene material that is comfortable against your skin. The grip-friendly non-slip tread on the bottom provides safety in case you need to get up and walk around at night. The heel of the foot is open for breathability. Can be worn on either the left or right foot.
