What can I do for treatment at night?
Night
Treatment is HIGHLY recommended in addition to wearing the Liquid
Orthotics and/or HTP Heel Seats in your shoes during the day. Plantar
Fasciitis is caused by the plantar fascia contracting. The key to
recovery is keeping the fascia stretched not just during the day, but at
night as well giving you 24 hour therapy. A common night treatment
that doctors have prescribed for decades is the use of a Night Splint
while sleeping. The Night Splint holds your foot at a 90 degree angle
to your shin while you sleep keeping the fascia from contracting
throughout the night. Our Rigid Night Splint works the best, but is the
hardest to sleep with. If you don't think you can tolerate the Rigid
Splint we suggest choosing from one of our two soft splints. There are
many different designs of Night Splints available, but all of them serve
the same purpose and that is to keep the plantar fascia stretched as
you sleep.
