Wake Up Feeling Better – Overnight Support for Plantar Fasciitis & Heel Pain
Plantar fasciitis is one of the most common causes of heel pain, often causing sharp discomfort with the first steps out of bed in the morning. During sleep, the foot naturally relaxes into a pointed position, allowing the plantar fascia and Achilles tendon to shorten. The ORTHOLIFE Plantar Fasciitis Night Splint is designed to gently hold the foot in a neutral or slightly flexed position overnight, helping maintain a gentle stretch through the plantar fascia and calf muscles. By providing consistent overnight support, this night splint can assist with:
✔ Reducing morning heel pain and stiffness
✔ Supporting plantar fascia recovery
✔ Maintaining ankle and foot flexibility
✔ Reducing tension through the calf and Achilles tendon
✔ Improving comfort during daily activities

How Does a Plantar Fasciitis Night Splint Work?
During sleep, most people naturally point their toes downward. This position can allow the plantar fascia and calf muscles to tighten.
The ORTHOLIFE Night Splint gently positions the foot to maintain a more neutral angle, creating a prolonged low-load stretch through:
- Plantar fascia
- Achilles tendon
- Gastrocnemius and soleus calf muscles
Unlike short stretching sessions, overnight use provides hours of gentle positioning while your body rests.
How To Use
- Place your foot comfortably inside the night splint.
- Secure the adjustable straps around your foot and lower leg.
- Adjust the tension until you feel a gentle stretch.
- Wear overnight or during periods of rest.
- Gradually increase wearing time as your comfort improves.
Tip: Start with wearing the splint for 1–2 hours initially before progressing to overnight use.
