Night Splint
Night splints are helpful for stubborn plantar fasciitis or preventing recurrence. Tight calf muscles and Achilles tendons are common contributors, so stretching is critical. A solid, well-made splint like this provides a deeper stretch than cheaper soft, strap-based options.
Podiatrist Pro Tips:
- While designed for overnight use, many patients prefer wearing them during the day while resting.
- For best results, wear the splint with your knee straight to fully stretch the calf muscles.
- WARNING: Night splints are not for walking and should only be worn while resting. Walking in a splint can cause decrease stability and could cause the wearer to fall and get injured.
