FREE SHIPPING
The Thermoskin Plantar FXT heated, soft night splint, is a treatment of heel pain, heel spurs and plantar fasciitis. The Thermoskin FXT soft night splint works by pulling the toes back slightly and comfortably. This stretches the plantar fascia and calf to speed healing. The Thermoskin Plantar FXT may also be worn during the day (while seated) to provide longer per day stretching treatment times. This may help speed up the healing process for Plantar Fasciitis. The Plantar FXT is much more patient friendly than other bulky night splints for plantar fasciitis, which makes it easy to use and more comfortable.
Only Thermoskin thermal Supports have been clinically proven to increase subcutaneous skin temperature 2-3 degrees F for the optimal level of heat therapy. Thermoskin's patented Trioxin lining creates a micro-climate that maintains elevated skin temperature while still allowing the skin to ventilate for long-term user comfort. The spiral structure of the Triokin lining lifts moisture away from the skin and traps air within the lining to help prevent excessive perspiration.

THERMOSKIN FAQs
|
How does the Thermoskin Plantar FXT work ?
The Plantar FXT has a semi-rigid strap that pulls the toes upwards and places the foot into a slight dorsi-flexion position, stretching the plantar fascia at the arch. The thermal properties aid in decreasing inflammation and increasing passive stretching of the plantar fascia while sleeping. |
How does the Plantar FXT help plantar fasciitis?
The Thermoskin Plantar FXT is designed to keep tension on the plantar fascia so it heals in a stretched position at night. When worn as prescribed the Plantar FXT reduces morning heel pain, reduces the need for medications and reduces total recovery time. By pulling the toes back, the plantar fascia is placed on stretch throughout the night. The Plantar FXT does not allow the plantar fascia to contract while sleeping. |
|
When sleeping, the foot is in a relaxed, plantarflexed position. Initially, the achilles tendon, calf and the plantar fascia are in a relaxed position as well. |
|
But, during the night as the foot remains in a plantarflexed position, both the calf and the plantar fascia contract and tighten. |
|
In the morning, the plantar fascia is in this tightened, shortened position. When full body weight is placed on the foot, the fascia becomes overstressed and tears. |
|
The Thermoskin Plantar FXT pulls the toes back, stretching the plantar fascia during the night. This prevents the fascia from contracting and tightening, helping to eliminate pain at the first step in the morning and facilitate healing. |
