FREEDOM Dorsal Night Splint: The FREEDOM Dorsal PF Night Splint helps heal plantar fasciitis in comfort. This low-profile splint cradles the foot in neutral position, gently stretching the plantar fascia through the night to relieve heel pain. Its simple, dorsal design is easy for patients to tolerate and dramatically improves compliance. Ambulation is no problem since it has no hard plastic sole–the wearer can make trips to the bathroom or walk throughout the house without any difficulty. In fact, it can be worn anytime, not just at night. Neoprene calf and toe straps make the Dorsal PF Night Splint easy to apply and remove. Simply adjust the toe strap once, slip the foot in, and strap it on. Infinite strap adjustments and an adjustable, padded instep ensure the patient gets the perfect fit. Use the Dorsal PF Night Splint to help treat plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and other lower extremity overuse injuries. It is constructed of latex-free foam with attached neoprene straps, fits the right or left foot, and is available in medium and large sizes.

Magnetic Pull-Cord Alarm The Magnetic Pull-Cord Alarm provides an easy, dependable, and versatile way to monitor patients. Clip the nylon pull-cord to a patient's clothes, and when he or she gets up to move, the magnetic sensor releases, sounding an alarm. Unlike other pull-cord alarms, the magnetic sensor releases from any direction for reliable notification and fewer false alarms. The alarm volume adjusts from low (85 dB) to high (95 dB) and can be turned off entirely. The pull-cord is adjustable from 28" to 58" and features an alligator clip that easily and securely attaches to clothes. Includes hook-and-loop straps and a holster that can be mounted just about anywhere with the included screws. Mount the holster above the patient's bed for nighttime supervision, then slip the alarm out and fasten it to their wheelchair for daytime safety. Requires two AAA batteries (included) and features a convenient battery check button with LED.

FREEDOM Thumb Spica: The FREEDOM Thumb Spica is the comfortable and convenient solution for disabling thumb pain. Restricting thumb movement during inflammation and swelling often relieves pain, but splinting or casting can be difficult and enclosing the thumb in a nonadjustable cylinder can be dangerous. The FREEDOM Thumb Spica provides an effective, off-the-shelf alternative. With an AliSoft shell and wide, elastic straps, it is adjustable and supple. Strategically positioned straps enable the soft shell to restrict motion and provide effective support. The FREEDOM Thumb Spica is able to compensate for thumb volume changes–pressure points disappear and hand and finger function is preserved. It is easy to wear, so the user is more likely to cooperate, avoiding painful motions even while performing daily activities. This thumb spica is ideal for de Quervain's syndrome and arthritis affecting the MP and CMC joints. The AliSoft shell can be trimmed with scissors to ensure the distal edge of the thumb post doesn't interfere with IP joint motion. The FREEDOM Thumb Spica is Available in left and right models, sizes small/medium and medium/large.
