The two goals of treatment for plantar fasciitis should be to protect the plantar fascia in your sole from additional strain, and make sure the tissue is stretched out well. Supporting your arch with insoles protects your arch while it heals. Over-the-counter insoles are inexpensive and quite good. Avoid soft gel arch supports because they’ll likely do nothing to help your plantar fascia. Be aware that too soft or too hard arch supports are both bad. You must find that “sweet spot” somewhere in the middle (which is different for everybody). Thus, try out many supports to make sure which one feels right.

A good plantar fasciitis night brace is very effective for stretching out your plantar fascia while you sleep. It eliminates that “first-step pain” when you wake up because it pre-stretches your foot while you sleep. The Stretch-Away Plantar Fasciitis Night Brace is comfortable, inexpensive, and easy to use. It’s recommended by podiatrists as a great measure to avoid the morning heel pain.
