Body Armor Night Splint

The Darco Body Armor Night Splint actively engages the windlass mechanism of the foot resulting in a specific and sustained stretch to the plantar fascia and a sustained low load stretch to the flexor tendons, Achilles tendon, and calf muscles.

Features and Benefits

• Toe strap dorsiflexes the first MPJ to provide a specific and sustained stretch to the plantar fascia. This also provides a sustained low load stretch to the flexor tendons, Achilles tendon and calf muscles
• Loading the windlass mechanism naturally brings the foot/ankle to a near 90º angle thus eliminating the “lever effect” and the resulting pressure on the apex of the ankle present in other dorsal models
• Elastic connector ring allows for natural flexion of the foot and toes during sleep and gently returns the foot to the dorsiflexed position as muscles relax
• Low profile design allows for maximum user comfort and compliance
