Plantar Fasciitis is a Pain!


    If you or someone you love suffers from Plantar Fasciitis, then you know what a pain it is. But how can you help?


Plantar Fasciitis is a Pain

    I don't personally live with Plantar Fasciitis, but my brother does. I loathe seeing him suffer from the pain. If you're not completely familiar with it, it's basically inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament. These are the thick fibrous bands in your foot that run from your heel to toes. (Incidentally, it's actually the largest ligament in the human body.)



    These tissues support your all the muscles in your feet, as well as the arch. When they become strained they can tear, causing immense pain and stiffness in your feet. When your feet are hurting, walking becomes a chore. And since we have things like jobs, families, and lives, we can't just sit around all day waiting for our feet to heal. So what do we do?

Invest in Compression Socks

    We've all got jobs to do, places to go, and people to see and care for. So invest is some Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks. These compression sleeves for your feet are designed to help alleviate your pain. They also offer support to your arch and ankle to keep pressure off of the Plantar Fasciitis Ligament. These compression socks support blood flow to reduce foot fatigue and encourage recovery.


Wicks Away Moisture

    These Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks are made of 86% Nylon and 14% Spandex. They will wick moisture away from your feet to keep you from getting sweaty socks. They're toeless to give your feet more air, and can be worn alone, or under a pair of socks.


Two for the Price of One!

    This pack of Plantar Fasciitis Compression Socks comes with two pairs. That way you can always have a fresh pair. They also come with a mesh bag for washing your socks. You can't beat that deal at all! I got some for my brother for Christmas. He has had great success with these socks, and I wanted him to have access to more pairs.

Do You or Someone You Love Suffer from Plantar Fasciitis

    I had never heard about Plantar Fasciitis, until my brother was diagnosed with it. All I knew up until then was that some days he could barely walk. It's horrible!

Do You or Someone You Love Suffer from Plantar Fasciitis

   If so, then you know the extreme pain that I'm referring to. But do you know what it really is? Medically speaking, its an inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament. If you or someone you love suffers from chronic Plantar Fasciitis (a year or more,) then it could become Plantar Fasciosis. This is a result of scarring of the fascia. But what can you do to help relieve the pain?


How to Relieve Plantar Fasciitis Pain

    Applying ice to your feet will help relieve the inflammation of the plantar fascia ligament. You can even take over the counter ibuprofen to not only help ease the pain, but also the inflammation. Massage has even been shown to be successful.  However, when you're working, you can't stop what you're doing to ice your feet, or get a massage. But you can grab a pair of these XOX Plantar Fasciitis Sleeves. 

    The XOX sleeves give your feet compression to help the pain. They also have an arch support which is important in keeping pressure off of your plantar fascia ligament. They distribute pressure around your feet, to keep you from furthering injuring your plantar fascia. 


Medical Grade

    The XOX Plantar Fasciitis sleeves are made from medical grade 20-30 mmPG which is FDA registered. They have an innovative mesh design that goes around the T Brace ribbing, to graduate pressure and provide arch support. They're made of spandex and nylon, so they're thin enough that your feet can breathe. So they can be worn both with or without socks, and with or without shoes.



    The XOX sleeves can be hand washed with mild soap. Then just hang to dry. My brother recommends having two pair. That way he always has a pair to wear while the other ones are drying from being washed. He doesn't go a day without wearing his XOX Plantar Fasciitis sleeves. I'm so happy that I was able to find them for him and offer him some relief.
