Do you have Plantar Fasciitis? Severe foot and heel pain when you first get out of bed in the morning are telltale signs. Studies have shown night splints offer immediate reduction in this severe pain. Just as important is proper support of your feet to help lessen stress while walking and standing. Night Splints hold the foot and stretch calf muscles helping to reduce inflammation and fluid build-up around the heel. Absent the use of a night splint, your foot goes into a relaxed position causing fluid to accumulate around the heel and fascia, the structure of connective tissue that surrounds the muscles of your heel. Upon arising, you walk on an inflamed fluid-filled plantar fascia and stretch tight calf muscles. Stretching while walking puts extra stress on the irritated heel and causes the pain that follows. A FREEDOM Dorsal PF Night Splint can solve all of these problems. Compared to other plantar based splints, patients prefer dorsal models because they are less bulky, cooler, have a lower profile and are easier to walk in at night. AliMed's FREEDOM Dorsal PF Night Splint includes all of these features and more. Our wide neoprene calf and toe straps along with gel padding on the top of the foot help reduce pressure points and the plastic-free bottom offers safer nighttime walking without compromising the ability to hold the foot at 90� during rest. We've even added more room in the foot to accommodate wider feet. Finally, a plantar fasciitis splint you will wear all night! Large Size Fits: Women Size 10 1/2 to 15 Men Size 9 1/2 to 14
