Medically approved - Plantar Fasciitis/Achilles Tendonitis Resting Splint with FREE Wedge for Optimal Foot Positioning (Class 1 medical device - Supplied to the NHS) SMALL, Up to UK Shoe: 5

After upping my walking again I was back to feeling like my ankles had fused in the morning - could barely walk down stairs and the pain was horrible until it loosened off. It's bothered me for years in varying degrees - the joys of hypermobility, but it was that bad this time I started looking for anything that would give some relief. And found this. Honestly wasn't getting my hopes up but was desperate to try anything and bought two and oh boy I'm so glad I did. As soon as it was on the immediate comfort was like a hug for your foot. Straps are easily adjustable and also padded. It's lightweight - was surprised at how light it was given that it feels really sturdy too. Was half expecting some clunky thing but very happy that it's not. First night I slept with both on but it was a really warm night and ended up taking them off, however I still noticed my ankles weren't as stiff when I got up. Promising! Been wearing them for almost a week now and the difference has been huge. Almost in happy tears at how pain free huge! I've managed this pain for years and just assumed it was something I'd be living with forever and just wished I'd researched sooner because I now have almost zero pain in the morning and can walk normally (or as normal as it gets for me). It's not gone completely - the achilles tendon is still very tender after maybe 20 minutes of walking, but I'm not in excrutiating pain anymore and that's just after a week. Without a doubt it's the best purchase I've made this year. Oh and bonus points to the seller for the speedy shipping too - arrived on the Saturday and wasn't due until the Monday.

very easy to fit. feeling benefit of the splint already

Arrived promptly and was as described but unfortunately didn’t help with my plantar fasciitis

I have achilles tendinopathy and while I was waiting to have this diagnosed I bought this night splint. It is easy to put on and adjust and is well made. It takes a couple of nights to get used to but I have found that I am able to walk with less pain especially when I get up in the morning. I can walk to the bathroom in the night without removing it. I now have exercises from a physio but will continue to wear the splint until the pain ceases. Now I know the symptoms I will wear it in bed if they reoccur. I have a cradle which raises the bedclothes over my feet and this probably makes wearing the splint easier as there is more room.

Developed Achiilles tendon problem as reaction to certain antibiotics. Prognosis was 6 - 12 months to clear. I was fully mobile in 5 months with these.. They look like instruments of torture, but are actually very comfortable and lightweight. I slept with them on without problem.

I found it hard to wear and it was broke when it arrived but got a refund straight away

This product has really helps my plantar fasciitis and I got used to it really quickly as it’s not as bulky as you would expect

This has took away so much pain that I was in. I'm not keen to wear it long in bed but when I rest my foot in the day it's brilliant. I would recommend this to anyone.
