Strassburg Sock Night Splint for Plantar Fasciitis - Only $39.99

Saturday, March 26, 2011

The Strassburg sock is the only plantar fasciitis treatment known to produce clinically reproducible results!

Do you have foot pain?

Do you suffer from plantar fasciitis? If the first couple steps of your workout result in a sharp pain on the bottom of your foot or heel, or your first steps in the morning feel a stabbing shooting pain, plantar fasciitis is likely the culprit. Both of these problems stem from micro tears in the thick leathery muscle known as the plantar fascia. Overnight these tears heel while the foot is in a relaxed state, only to be torn in the morning when you stretch your foot for the first time. The Strassburg Sock is your solution to this problem, allowing your nightly healing to take place in the maximum stretched state of the plantar fascia. This optimal healing configuration can result in a 50% reduction in the healing time of this injury.


How does the Strassburg Sock work?

The Strassburg Sock is a simple solution to a complex problem: comfortably restraining the foot’s motion during a nights rest. Instead of using a bulky and rigid mechanical brace to uncomfortably force the position of your foot as you fall asleep, the Strassburg Sock is made of soft cotton that maintains the foot in the correct position to optimize muscle recovery without impeding your ability to fall asleep. This also means that you are able to roll and move naturally as you sleep, preventing a sheltered ankle and ankle stiffness problems that are the result of hard braces.

The Strassburg Sock is a knee high sock utilizing a Velcro strap to maintain tension and pull the toes and foot into a stretched position. This Velcro strap, connecting the toes of the sock to a loop beneath the knee, is fully adjustable, allowing each user to select the tension most comfortable to them. Additionally, the soft cotton material allows the sock to be washed in a standard washer along with your other laundry.

This brilliant solution is not limited to injury recover for plantar fasciitis. When used prior to injury, the adjustability of tension provided by the Strassburg Sock's strap allows an athlete to further stretch the planar fascia muscle, preventing the injury from occurring in the first place. Also, the sock can be used to stretch tight calves, reducing injury from Achilles tendinitis and pulled calf muscles.

The Strassburg Sock is a patented solution to one of athletes most persistent and nefarious injuries and has the support and backing of clinical studies. An independent study published in the July/August 2002 issue of Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery showed that over 97% of patients with plantar fasciitis recovered in 8 weeks, however patients using the Strassburg Sock recovered in less than 3 weeks. Patients who used the Strassburg Sock recovered in over half the time!

What is the Strassburg Sock?

Plantar Faciitis is an inflammation of the fibrous tissue, called the plantar fascia, which runs along the bottom of your foot and connects the heel (calcaneus) to the toes (metatarsals). Normally Plantar Faciitis is initially felt as a sharp pain in your heel when you first try to take steps in the morning.

The Strassburg Sock is designed to keep tension on the tissue (plantar fascia) so it heals in a stretched position at night. The Sock holds the ankle and forefoot joints in a position of slight dorsiflexion that prevents a position of plantarflexion, that is the plantar fascia is not allowed to contract. In addition to healing your immediate foot pain, the involuntary stretching of the plantar fascia over a long period of time helps to strengthen the foot's arch thus preventing future injury.

The Strassburg Sock device consists of a tubular knit material (ie a sock) that fits over the calf with two attached adjustable straps to maintain the foot in a neutral to slightly stretched position. When worn at night, the device will apply a force which results in the reduction and/or elimination of the pain felt during those first steps in the morning.

The Strassburg Sock is a patented treatment with medical research to support its effectiveness.
