How does the "Strassburg Sock" work?
This easy to use, inexpensive device is designed to keep tension on the tissue
(plantar fascia) so it heals in a stretched position at night. In this way many
users find a reduction of their morning pain, some have noticed a reduced
recovery time and yet others have reduced the need for medications.
When worn as prescribed, it does not allow the plantar fascia to contract while
in the prone or supine position. The device 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 the involuntary stretching of the plantar fascia over a long period
of time helps to strengthen the foot's arch.
What is the "Strassburg Sock"?
The device consists of a tubular knit material that fits "over the calf"
with 2
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.
