  Futuro Night Brace June 5, 2008 5 out of 6 found this review helpful
I bought this product locally and tried it for 2 nights. It did not keep my foot in a flexed position because it has too much stretch-ability built into it. As I was lying down with the brace on one foot, my husband compared my feet and he said both feet looked to be in the same position. Since it didn't do anything for my morning pain I took it back. Sure, it is comfortable to sleep in and easy to walk in, but that is because it is not effective. I would not recommend this product.
  goodnight splint May 15, 2008 It's light so it doesn't weigh down the foot or get caught in the sheets like the "boot". It puts support at the ball of the foot so the ankle is kept flexed w/o pinching the toes like that sling thing. My plantar fasciitis is finally getting better AND I can sleep!
  great! April 28, 2008 I looked all over and only found very pricey supports. This one is perfect and less cumbersome than others that are twice the price!
  Relatively comfortable, effective plantar fasciitis aid April 15, 2008 6 out of 7 found this review helpful
I've had this a week now. Can't manage to keep it on all night, but I'm able to sleep a couple of hours with it, then take it off, then put it back on a couple of hours before getting up. It's made getting up in the morning a new experience -- no pain!
This should also help people who have nighttime calf and foot cramps, which are often caused by having your foot extended (pointed) all night (stomach and back sleepers especially).
I strongly recommend also buying "The 5-Minute Plantar Fasciitis Solution" (book), which discusses what does and does not work for this condition based on randomized clinical trials. Night splints do work, but the best thing is regular (3x/day) stretching of the plantar fascia.
  ok, but not great April 6, 2008 ok, but by morning they were halfway off, the only part left on was the strap on the ankle. I didn't feel like they gave me enough stretch.
