5 out of 5 stars It's a miracle worker!   June 28, 2004

After living with the toruous pain of plantar fasciitis for over a year, a friend loaned me Freedom Night Splint and begged me to give it a try. I did - and despite the look of the thing, it was pretty comfortable. The soft terry lining is especially nice. And best of all - I felt relief from the plantar fasciitis pain after the first night! Not healed, mind you, but a good deal better.

My doctor gave me a prescription for a splint of my own, but the local pharmacy doesn't carry this particular splint. Oh well, I figured, a splint is a splint. I used my new splint for a few weeks and noticed my foot was hurting again! Sometimes I would wake in the middle of the night with my heal/ankle hurting and have to remove the splint! the nasty synthetic fabric the liner is made out of is hot and uncomfortable. My heal felt like it wasn't getting any better at all and as a matter of fact it was hurting in a different spot. The next morning I noticed my heal had been rubbed nearly open from the splint!!

Needless to say, I reborrowed my friends Freedom splint, and again, after one night - RELIEF! I'm throwing away the other (and incidentally, more expensive) splint and buying my own Freedom Splint NOW!!!
