oapl Night Splint

Why this brace? The oapl Night Splint maintains the ankle in a dorsiflexed position overnight to relieve plantar fasciitis pain and is padded, adjustable, and suitable for short ambulation.

Key Benefits:

• Keeps the ankle in a plantar grade or slightly dorsiflexed position while sleeping, which helps maintain proper alignment and prevent tightening of the plantar fascia.
• Specifically indicated for plantar fasciitis and for patients at risk of losing dorsiflexion range, helping reduce morning pain and stiffness.
• Features Lycra-lines foam padded straps with centre release buckles for secure and adjustable fit. 
• The foam-lines Kydex chassis adds structure while remaining comfortable.
• Includes an EVA walking sole and oblique dorsiflexion straps, making it suitable for transfers and short-distance ambulation, even while wearing the splint.

Care Instructions:

• Spot clean the Lycra-lined foam straps with a damp cloth and mild soap.
• Avoid soaking or machine washing to preserve the foam and stitching.
• Wipe the shell down with a damp cloth.
  
• Do not use abrasive cleaners or immerse in water.
• Clean sole with a soft brush or cloth to remove dirt or debris.

Indications / Conditions:

• Plantar Fasciitis: Helps relieve tension and pain by keeping the foot in a dorsiflexed position overnight.
• Loss of Dorsiflexion Range: Beneficial for patients at risk of losing ankle flexibility due to immobility or injury.
