AZMED Plantar Fasciitis Night Splint & Support, Adjustable Orthotic Foot Drop Brace for Achilles Tendonitis and Heel Spur Relief, Black

Dealing with planter fasciitis this has been a very good product. It keeps the foot in the same place overnight. Something about the position makes your foot rest and wake up with minimal to no pain.

There are lots of night splints on the market for planter fasciitis, but they are all very bulky and uncomfortable. I’ve owned several of these because they are comfortable, adjustable, easy to travel with, and keep the foot in the right position for sleeping. I gave it four out of five only because it seems the Velcro wears out after a while, and I have to buy a new one.

How was the item? This AZMED Plantar Fasciitis Night Splint is wonderful! It truly supports my heal while I sleep. In the morning I feel hardly any pain from my plantar fasciitis. I've been wearing my splint for 3 weeks now and my foot feels so much better. I feel that with time and good arch support shoes, I'll soon be free of pain.

I tried this for a few nights and it did help a little. You can’t walk at all when you wear it so don’t plan on getting out of bed at night. However, I learned a place to massage my leg that has changed my life! There is a muscle or tendon that runs just to the right of your right leg and the left of your left leg that if massaged you immediately feel relief. Here’s what you do. Find your shine bone and locate a thin muscle to the right or left and massage all the way down to your ankle. If it doesn’t hurt like hell you haven’t found it. After massaging / applying pressure all the way down your feet will stop hurting. I have had plantar fasciitis for 20 years and this specific massage has dramatically improved my feet. I massage the muscle once a week and my feet do not hurt at all! I was in constant pain at work and when I came home. I’m a teacher so I’m up walking around a lot and it was awful. Please. Try this massage. My chiropractor showed it to me but even my osteopath had never heard of it. It really has been life changing for me. I wish you all the best.

Not one size fits all. Barely able to get around foot. Wide portion of foot strap difficult to hook Velcro as it’s under the foot. The fastener strap ends up attaching on side of foot instead of on top. The foot strap needs to attach on top of foot and the fastener strap heede to secure on the top. Concept is great, engineering poor.

I was skeptical getting this. I work on my feet on a concrete floor. I've had quite some sharp burning heel pain for weeks. Excruciating. I got new boots made for arch support and insoles specially for plantar sorry and they maybe took some edge offididn't think this song would do much more but I'm willing to try anything at this point. I wore it for 4 hours before bed to get used to it and it was uncomfortable at first but I was more used to it by bedtime. Enough to fall asleep. The next morning I woke up and as usual very cautiously put weight on my feet getting out if bed and the pain was noticeably much less. I'm halfway through my shift now and the pain hadn't increased much from that. I'm thrilled, really thrilled and completely confident in my purchase and leaving a review which I never do. I have large (male 13 us extra wide) feet and was very skeptical it would fit but it fits fine I'm near the end of the adjustment but it's enough. The metal rod is bendable and easily adjustable to a comfortable angle with a lot of room to increase it as I get used to it and need more.and I received an email from the company within hours offering me 20% off another one which I don't need at this time but still was impressive at the speed and quality of service

I recently tried out this foot brace with mixed feelings. While it has some positive aspects, there are a few key issues that prevent me from fully endorsing it. I found it to be an average product with room for improvement. One of the main drawbacks of this foot brace is its inability to hold the foot at a 90-degree angle consistently, which is crucial for maintaining a stretched position for the plantar throughout the night. Despite the presence of a metal form, it fails to effectively prevent the foot from flopping. This compromises its intended purpose and leaves much to be desired in terms of support. On the positive side, I found the foot brace to be lightweight and soft, making it comfortable to wear. It is also relatively easy to put on, contrary to some negative reviews I came across. The user-friendly design allows for hassle-free application, which is appreciated, especially for individuals with limited mobility or dexterity. Although this foot brace has its shortcomings, I see potential in it. If changes were made to the shape to enhance its ability to hold the foot at a 90-degree angle consistently and prevent flopping, it would greatly improve its overall effectiveness. In conclusion, while the foot brace offers some positive aspects such as being lightweight, soft, and easy to put on, it falls short in terms of its primary function of maintaining a 90-degree angle for the foot and preventing flopping. With modifications to its shape, this product has the potential to be a reliable option. For now, however, I remain cautiously optimistic and would consider purchasing it again if improvements were implemented. Disclaimer: Please note that individual experiences may vary.

very comfortable

Finally getting some relief from a sprained ankle from keeping stable as I sleep

I have been in agony with plantar fasciitis for about 6 months. It has just been getting progressively worse until I could barely walk. I tried hot and cold therapy, resting, massage, went to Dr. after 3 months got steroid injection in 1 foot and nothing helped. Bought inserts for shoes, changed footwear tried EVERYTHING but nothing helped! Putting on weight as could not exercise or walk. I was very miserable :-(. Tried a different splint for nighttime was really uncomfortable. Then I discovered this!!! It's been amazing and really helped. I bought one at first and used it on one my right foot at night time. Over time (about 1 week) there was a huge improvement in my right foot. I bought a 2nd one and use them both at night and the pain has got less and less with every day. When I had a day off I would wear them during the day as well. I'm almost good now and can walk without feeling like I have hot knives poking my feel. They work by keeping your foot at a right angle while you sleep therefore stretching the affected tendon while you rest. At night it is comfortable to wear them over thin socks. During the day I wear them over a couple of pairs of thick padded sleep socks. It's hard to walk about with the splints on both feet but so worth it for the relief. Buy them - don't delay and end your suffering!

It works ok but wear a padded sock under it because the metal insert is not padded enough and digs into your foot and shin

Did not work for me.

the metal bar that goes cross from the front to back or the opposite kept moving and digging into my foot.
