A soft padded night splint for prolonged plantar fascia stretch, for treatment of plantar fasciitis. Removable liner may be washed for patient hygiene. Fits right or left foot. Shipped with full-length toe wedge for additional stretch.
Wear at night for effective treatment of plantar fasciitis - prevents shortening of the plantar fascia.
Fits left or right foot. Based on UK shoe size. If you are between sizes, please choose the larger size.
The soft padded shell surrounds the back of the calf, around the heel and under the sole of the foot. Three fabric straps with Velcro fasten the night splint in place. This keeps the foot at 90 degrees to the shin bone, with keeps a sustained stretch on the plantar fascia. A full length toe wedge is also included for additional stretch of the plantar fascia.
If this stretch is sustained for a prolonged period (e.g. overnight) the Plantar Fascia is held in a better position for healing. Research has shown that night splinting is effective in relieving symptoms in over 80% of cases of plantar fasciitis.
The Pro Care Dorsiwedge Night Splint has a removable liner that can be washed for patient hygiene.

“Dorsiwedge Night Splint”Reviewed by Anonymous
I have bought this product before, three times, over the years. It is a plastic mold for foot and leg, and covered in a washable fabric and the "straps" hold your foot and leg in and it is light and comfortable to wear in bed. Also, if you are having any kind of surgery, this can be taken into the operating theatre and it will not interfere with the equipment as there is no metal in it. Thank you. ps lighter than the NHS one, and also stays on your foot and leg at night without coming away from the support.

“Plantar Fasciitis Relief”Reviewed by Elkingo
I cannot recommend this product highly enough. The Dorsiwedge night splint was recommended to be by my Podiatrist. Amazing results from first use. Still a long road ahead but we're heading in right direction.
“Achilles Tendonitis”Reviewed by Anonymous
Surprised at the effect this had, it was immediate. I've had Achilles tendonitis since June, and in the morning struggled to get downstairs. The boot takes a couple of nights to get used to, but I can't recommend it more.
“Helping somewhat ”Reviewed by From a patient patient
I have plantar fasciitis in both feet, severe in left foot and moderate in right foot. Left foot is very painful most of the time. I bought two splints which I wear in bed overnight. I've only used them for a week so it's early days. They do alleviate nighttime pain but so far my day pain is terrible and my left foot is excruciating first thing in the morning despite wearing the splint with wedge all night. The splints are comfy and do help somewhat but when I'm not wearing them the pain returns. I'm awaiting orthotics from an NHS podiatrist which should assist the pressure points. However I've waited 7 weeks so far and felt I had to do something to help myself as I'm told there is a backlog for orthotics so I don't know when I will get them. So I found these splints which at the very least help me sleep better. I knew from other reviews it wouldn't be an instant fix but the relief they give me overnight is welcome. The splints aren't the most glamorous things in the world but if they help, it doesn't matter. Being comfy and pain free some of the time is what matters to me.

“Well made and confortable”Reviewed by Anonymous
Very well made and comfortable to wear but beware of the sizing. i purchased the x large and i have a size 10 1/2 foot Uk size and the night splint drowned my foot, it was sized for a size 13-14 Uk size
“Easy to put on and comfortable to wear”Reviewed by Anonymous
My problem was the extreme discomfort and pain experienced during the night. The first night I wore the night splint was the first full nights sleep that I had for a couple of weeks without pain. I have also worked out when I watch TV I normally have my legs up on the sofa. After a period of time the discomfort in my foot starts and would carry on into the night. I now either sit with my feet on the floor or put the splint on. The splint is light and comfortable to wear. Just make sure you order the right size.
“Does the job for me!”Reviewed by top668atntlworld.com
I'm a size 9/9.5 uk and after reading reviews opted for the medium size splint and I think I made the right decision. It fits very well, in fact I think the large would have been too big! It is very comfortable, soft and light to wear. I can wear it all night with no discomfort. I find you don't have to wear it too tight either for it to do it's job. I've got something similar to plantar (some docs say it is pf others disagree as the pain doesn't go to the end of my foot - if anyone has any ideas what it could be please let me know!!) but the first few steps every morning are soooo painful. If I wear this splint I get no pain at all, and the pain throughout the day is reduced too (i.e if I sit at my desk for an hour then get up I get the early morning first steps pain too!) I went for this model as apposed to any of the others as it didn't have a strap going from the toe to the top of the splint, which means I can sleep on my front easier. Before this I tried the strassburg sock which does work too but is far more uncomfortable to wear imo. Highly recommended.
“NOT PERFECT, BUT COMFORTABLE”Reviewed by Anonymous
I find the splint comfortable to wear, but a bit bulky in bed, it helps support my foot and the pain is not so bad when first standing up. Yes it helps but is not a cure and when not wearing it the pain is back.
“Very Good”Reviewed by Anonymous
This product gave me 95% relief on the very first night or should I say during the first steps of the morning after. I was amazed. I stepped out of bed gingerly, preparing for that wincing pain and it was not there!! So much so that I noticed a small amount of pain in my 'good' foot.
I've continued to wear it for several nights now and my condition is improving daily. The wedge is essential. An additional plus is that it cannot hurt your other foot as it is padded.
“Bad”Reviewed by jediskip45
I found this to be quite comfortable to wear and very easy to put on, but there is too much foot movement, the heel does not stay in the heel, no matter how tight you put this on.
Very poor design.
“It Didn't work for me.”Reviewed by ufc43
I bought one of these a few months ago from PhysioRoom.com. I have been wearing it every night since. It is easy to wear while sleeping but it is quite a big and bulky item. The problem I find with it is that it still allows quite a lot of movement of the heel. In other words, it did not keep my foot in the position it was suppose to. Without the wedge insert it is pointless to wear as the angle of your foot is not allowing for the plantar muscle to stretch. When the wedge is inserted it is a little better but no matter how well you strap your leg in there is still too much movement at the heal area which means that the angle your foot is at is increased (more than 90 degrees) and therefore the Plantar Muscle is no long being stretched. This item may work for some people but it did not work for me. If I was to buy another item to help with my Plantar Fasciitis I would probably choose the Air Heel.
“Unbelievable!”Reviewed by Postdog
I have PF in both feet. Have done for two years, and being a postman, not good!. In the summer I had a particularly bad attack which actually left me unable to walk normally for weeks. Even after cortisone injections, my feet still weren't right. I bought one of these and I was sceptical but I had to try as my job was at risk. Being curious, I actually tried wearing it while watching the TV instead of overnight, and I couldn't believe how relaxed and refreshed my foot felt after wearing it. More to the point,no pain when I stood up. To cut a long story short, I bought another one next day and use them regularly - not ALL the time, just when I think my feet will benefit. They are comfy to sleep in too, though 2 of them underneath the duvet does feel a bit awkward when you turn over. I'd thoroughly recommend them, and even did so to my doctor who could only offer sympathy and injections.
“Oh so comfortable”Reviewed by Lynndyloo
This is so comfortable it truly deserves a medal - there are no hard plastic bits to give you bruises on your other leg through the night as it is all softly padded - it is also really comfortable to wear and the adjustable straps are long enough to fit anybody's foot/leg - and can be adjusted easily if allow for swelling if necessary.
