![]() ![]() ![]() The most common complaints of compression socks and sleeves are an improper fit (either too tight or too loose), tenderness of the heel after use, and not enough support to improve pain. If you’ve had positive results from massage and stretching, you may find that compression socks are a good fit for you! Many people find that because compression socks are low-cost, particularly when compared with other treatment options, they’re a viable option to try. While there isn’t yet a body of scientific research that confirms the effectiveness of compression in treating the symptoms of plantar fasciitis, there is a significant amount of anecdotal evidence and testimonials.Ĭompression works by applying pressure to specific zones of the heel and foot (most notably the fascia, the ball of the foot, and areas along the ankle) to improve circulation, stretch the fascia, and provide additional support. Constant, gentle pressure with many of the benefits of massage is exactly the value proposition that compression socks and sleeves provide.Ĭompression socks and sleeves can be a cost-effective, easy way to improve circulation and reduce pain all day long, and are most effective when used alongside other proven treatment methods like orthotic inserts, icing, and stretching. So wouldn’t it be great if you had a tiny personal masseur to ride in your shoe all day? Massage is a fantastic way to improve symptoms of plantar fasciitis and reduce heel pain. ![]() Full Length Heel Seats with Arch Support (Renewal) 3.Full Length Heel Seats with Arch Support (Renewal). ![]()
