Made of Thermoskin patented Trioxon lining, the dorsal splint increases the subcutaneous skin temperature (2-3 F), allowing optimal heat therapy and blood flow to the tissue. The spiral structure of the Trioxon lining lifts moisture away from the skin and traps air within the lining to prevent excessive perspiration. Medical Grade Night Splints: Night Splints are normally worn at night during sleep or during rest after activity; therefore called ldquonightrdquo splints.
The most common severe pain and inflammation of plantar fasciitis is experienced in the morning, which causes the first few steps to be excruciating. The position the feet and ankles are held in as we sleep promotes cramping of the fascia and calf muscles. When feet are pointed under the weight of the blankets, the plantar fascia muscle is contracted (shortened). Those first steps in the morning are painful because the muscle which as been contracted all night is suddenly stretched and pulled.
The Night Splint is designed to provide a gentle stretch to the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon by comfortably positioning the foot in a controlled amount of dorsiflexion. This gentle stretch helps reduce the muscle contracture, inflammation, and associated pain, and helps promote healing of the injured tendons and muscles. It has also been clinically proven to reduce symptoms of plantar fasciitis.

Occasionally, a few patients may still experience morning heel pain due to the tightening of the plantar fascia at night. Now, with the combination of the Night Splint doing itrsquos job stretching the plantar fascia throughout the night, and then the DAY treatments continuing their acupressure and treatment throughout the day.
