For plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, ankle contracture....
The dorsal Night Splint stabilizes the foot and lower leg position at an
angle of 90° in order to avoid equines deformity of the foot and to
consequently prevent achilles tendon shortening. The toe loop elevates
the hallux (dorsal flexion) resulting in a sustained stretch to the
plantar fascia.
The combination of stretching to the fascia and keeping
the position by means of the splint enables various indications to
counteract. The adjustable straps are quick and easy to use providing
perfect fitting.
The BodyArmor Night Splint is a splint stabilizing the foot and lower leg position at an angle of 90° in order to avoid equines deformity of the foot and to consequently prevent achilles tendon shortening.
The toe loop elevates the hallux, and thus actively engages the windlass mechanism of the foot resulting in a sustained stretch to the plantar fascia.
In addition, the toe loop exercises a slight tension on:
> the achilles tendon
> the Tibialis posterior tendon
> the deep flexor tendons of the foot
> and the muscle system of the lower leg
The BodyArmor Night Splint is the only orthosis on the market today that actively engages the windlass mechanism of the foot resulting in a specific and sustained stretch to the plantar fascia.
Fits both left and right foot. One size fits all.
