Plantar fasciitis is a common cause of heel pain which is experienced by athletes at all levels. This situation can develop as a result of overstretching, overuse or in some cases, as a result of a medical condition.

Plantar fasciitis is an inflammation of the plantar fascia. This piece of strong, thick tissue runs along the bottom of the foot, connecting the heel bone to the toes. If you have Plantar Fasciitis you likely experience a stabbing pain near the heel, often at its worst in the morning. Those who experience pain under the heel will want to avoid excess stress on the heel bone often while running or taking part in aerobics. Shoes with good arch support like out Dr Comfort range can help as does the Aircast AirHeel™ brace which applies pulsating compression with every step.

Our range of heel braces are constructed of lightweight, breathable fabrics and are easy to slip on like a sock. Working to reduce stress under the arch, our braces provide compression to the achilles tendon, reducing strain, which minimises swelling.
