How to wear Cramer Dorsal Night Splint?

1. The Dorsal Night Splint can be worn on either foot. Simply slide the foot into the splint so that the inside flap always rests on the arch

 

2. Bring the flaps together comfortably and fasten them firmly with the Velcro strap. Once the Dorsal Strap has been properly adjusted, do not remove it. Slip foot in and out as you would a slipper

 

3. Secure the two remaining straps comfortably around the lower leg. The straps should be snug but not tight enough to cause discomfort or numbness in the lower leg.

 

Why Dorsal Night Splint is Used?

• Comfortable and Breathable Design
  • Unlike most splints, the Dorsal Night Splint keeps the foot comfortable and cool.
  • The splint features a low-profile design with pads to cushion the needed pressure points.
  • This allows for minimal heat retention while you’re sleeping for maximum comfort.
• Effective for Different Kinds of Ankle Injuries
  • The primary use of the Dorsal Night Splint is to help those suffering from plantar fasciitis by reducing the irritation that the plantar fascia experiences.
  • It also provides a high amount of stability. It is ideal for other injuries like severe ankle sprains, Achilles tendonitis, foot drop, stroke patients, and sore heels or heel pain.
• Durable Construction
  • It is designed to provide the user with exceptional support and minimal hindrance.
  • The inside is lined with padded fabric to provide cushion and comfort while walking around or sleeping with it on.
  • The outer shell of the splint is made with molded plastic that provides sturdy support that isn’t heavy or irritating.
  • Three hooks & loop straps secure the splint in place with the clamshell preventing unwanted movement.
