Brown Medical Cool Stretch Tension Night Splint Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I finally found something that gives me the night-time support that I need for my plantar faciitis - that doesn't cut off circulation and doesn't let you fall out of the brace. There are 3 velcro straps that can be adjusted to your comfort AND there are locking straps on the top and middle straps to keep the velcro in place. Those are also adjustable. I only occasionally use the ice pack that come with it, if I've had a painful day. The ice pack is not so cold that it's uncomfortable, but it stays cold long enough to feel relief (usually beyond when I fall asleep). The one thing I will say is that it is a little bulky and it is sometimes a challenge to get your feet positioned comfortably. Back sleepers won't have this issue. As a side sleeper, I actually rest my other foot on the ridge of the splint to try to keep that one at 90 degrees. The splint is light enough that I can do this sleeping on either side. The front wedge that keeps your toes up isn't very noticable to me; my toes are already higher than they should be just standing. Walking with this splint takes some getting used to, but I've also never had a broken bone or a need for other splints, so I imagine it would be somewhat similar. I keep it on if I need to get up in the middle of the night and get around just fine. The skids on the bottom keep it from ruining the floor.
All around, a great product!

Plantar Fasciitis is the most commonly diagnosed source of heel pain. The primary symptom is pain on the bottom of the heel, usually worse in the morning with a tendency to intensify over time.Night splints offer an established, non-invasive treatment for plantar fasciitis. When combined with a stretching program and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, a tension night splint (TNS) with a 12-week protocol has a proven success rate. The Cool Stretch offers a fixed angle support with a rigid, low profile design to hold the flexion and allow the plantar fascia to heal.Non-skid treads on the bottom allow minimal ambulation, while the removable ice pack and toe lift provide additional treatment.
