Product Description
Finally a COMFORTABLE way to treat Plantar Fasciitis. Plantar Fasciitis is painful enough; the treatment shouldnt cause additional irritation. The Plantar FXT is the ideal alternative to cumbersome Night Splints. It is easy to apply, low profile and comfortable to wear. The Plantar FXT pulls the toes back slightly and comfortably. This stretches the plantar fascia so it may heal. The Plantar FXT has the added benefit of Thermoskins clinically proven heat therapy. Sized according to shoe size as follows: X-Small for Mens shoe sizes 3-5, Womens 4-6. Small for Mens shoe sizes 6-7, Womens 7-9. Medium for Mens shoe sizes 8-10, Womens 10-11. Large for Mens shoe sizes 11-12, Womens 12-13. X-Large for Mens shoe sizes 13-14, Womens 14 and over. XX-Large, for Mens size 15 and over. Due to Health and Sanitary Issues this item may not be returned.
Thermoskin Thermal Supports utilize the exclusive patented Trioxon lining that is clinically proven to capture your natural body heat. Unlike other products, Trioxon allows your skin to ventilate and remain comfortably dry even with long-term use. Other products trap perspiration resulting in discomfort, risk of infection & unpleasant odor. The Trioxon lining creates a microclimate to help the skin breathe while still providing effective heat therapy. This is the secret of Thermoskins long-term comfort for the user.
How Thermoskin works: The application of prolonged heat therapy to the effected area is a simple and quick form of treatment. Heat therapy promotes healing by opening up the small blood vessels, increasing blood flow and facilitating the removal of inflammation. Heat therapy assists your bodys natural healing process. The combination of this heat therapy along with the support and light compression provided by Thermoskin Thermal Supports help prevent, treat and rehabilitate soft tissue injuries.

 Wanted to like it but.... October 3, 2008
Well I wanted to like it and really thought it might work and to be fair it may have worked if I wore it every night but it hurt to wear, was unconfortable, woke me up in the middle of the night in toe pain and was a little warm. I tried many different ways of making sure it was loose but it always slipped back tight onto my toes. My girlfriend wore them for her foot problems and within 2 months she said her pain had abated completed!
Not much stretch August 27, 2008
A great idea, but just didn't work for me. #1-I did not get much stretch from it. The picture shows the toe really stretch, but since its made out of soft material, I got hardly any stretch from it. #2-I tend to flip in several positions during sleep (back, side and stomach), so it was extemely uncomfortable when I was sleeping on my stomach and I ended up taking it off. It works ok when I'm watching TV or relaxing reading a book, but not so great for sleeping - at least not for moi.

I did not purchase this item from Amazon, and I paid $39.99 for it. I can tell you that while it "sounds" like a good idea, I found it to be completely useless. It was way too flimsy to work. The strap that "lifts" your toe, can't possibly pull back enough. The only thing that it did effectively was to cramp my toes so uncomfortably that it woke me up and I had to remove it. I had purchased the larger size option, so it wasn't a size issue on the toe squishing. Fortunately I ordered with from a very high end provider that offers 100% lifetime guarantee on all that they sell, so I can return it for a full refund. I see here that it is NOT returnable if used. Which is unfortunate because if you don't "use" it, you won't know that it doesn't work at all. Take my word for it, try one of the more solid boots as I am going to do.
Too tight in the toes July 25, 2008
This product pulls your toes together so much so that I had to take it off half way through the first night. Of course, they don't accept returns, so it was a total loss.
 worked great for me June 26, 2008

I initially ordered a medium because I wear a size 9. It made my toes burn after wearing a few hours and I had to rip it off in the middle of night. So I ordered a large and no longer had the discomfort problem. My heel pain was improved almost immediately. I no longer feel any pain during the day. The thing about this device is that you don't want to pull the toes back very far. It only needs a gentle pull to work. I do agree with other reviewers that the pull lessens during the night. I don't think this product will work as well for people who sleep on their back or stomach. Will work best for those who sleep on their side. Thermoskin Plantar FXT for Plantar Fasciitis, Beige
