OrthoLife Plantar Fasciitis Sock Strassburg Night Splint - Heel Pain, Achilles Tendonitis
ORTHOLIFE PLANTAR FASCIITIS SOCK
OrthoLife Plantar Fasciitis Sock is a knee-high, lightweight night splint sock that's been designed to be worn overnight ;to ;reduce and relieve the effects of plantar fasciitis heel pain. ;
It ;works on the principle of long-term low yield stress on the tendon membrane of the foot pier and the Achilles tendon. ; ;The pain is caused by a sterile inflammatory response in the tendon material.
The use of the plantar fasciitis sock is recommended for an elongation of at least 6 hours successively. ;It is ;easy to use and won't interrupt sleep.
The Plantar Fasciitis Sock is composed of a lower leg sock with D-ring and a stretch band. The combination with a wedge heel is recommended for optimal results.
how does the plantar fasciitis sock work?
This plantar fasciitis sock features an adjustable strap system that allows you to simply adjust the level of dorsi-flexion to suit your needs - pulling the toes back up towards the knee as required. ;
The pull on the toes causes the plantar fascia to stretch, and when stretched (for a sustained period overnight) the tissues are encouraged to repair and heal in a better position, which reduces and alleviates the symptoms of plantar fasciitis and related heel pain.
***(***Note: The sock is sold individually and not in pairs).
