Just a note of appreciation for the effectiveness of the multi use boot night splint. I have been using mine for several months.. and I see an appreciable difference in the use and pain in my foot. I have suffered from what I consider acute Plantar Faciitis for several months, and have been experiencing great relief since using the boot. —V.S. Rochester,NY
Dear sir: I recently had my first experience with the LEEDer grip WHFO in use with a stroke client and was quite impressed.
