Did you know approximately 10% of people will suffer from plantar heel pain (commonly referred to as plantar fasciitis) and arch pain at some point in their life? It’s one of the most common causes of adult foot pain and is responsible for a significant number of annual doctor visits.
Most Aussies tend to ignore foot pain when it’s just a niggle, but over time, it can worsen if left unmanaged. Start managing your condition like an expert. Our compression and stability brace is designed to help relieve plantar fasciitis pain while supporting recovery and healing.
The brace gently stabilises the ankle to help prevent the Achilles tendon from overstretching or “bowing,” which reduces the pulling force placed on the plantar fascia at the bottom of the heel.
Because this is a true compression and stability brace, it may feel slightly tight to put on at first, but that’s exactly the point. A snug fit is essential for proper compression, support, and improved control around the ankle and heel. Once applied, you can adjust it to your comfort level for a secure and supportive fit.
It also provides comfortable, even compression around the ankle and heel, delivered through an adjustable BOA® dial system. This allows you to fine-tune the level of support for a secure, personalised fit throughout the day. Consistent compression helps reduce swelling and inflammation while improving circulation, all of which can ease pain and support the body’s natural healing process.
By encouraging better foot alignment and offering added support during walking or standing, the brace helps reduce repeated strain on the plantar fascia. The added stability can improve balance and confidence with movement, making everyday activities more comfortable.
Together, these features help decrease heel pain, protect irritated tissue, and provide ongoing support as the foot recovers. While the brace won’t “fix” plantar fasciitis on its own, it plays an important role in managing symptoms and reducing strain. For best results, it should be paired with targeted stretching, strengthening exercises, and tools like a fascia rollers and thermal braces to address the root cause and support long-term recovery.
How to Put On Your Brace
-
Position the Brace:
Place your foot through the brace, making sure the BOA dial is positioned at the top. -
Tighten the Fit:
Press down on the BOA dial to engage it, then turn it clockwise to tighten the brace until it feels snug and supportive. -
Secure the Straps:
Refer to the instructional video to see how to crisscross the straps at the front of the brace for the best fit and stability. -
To Remove the Brace:
- Loosen the BOA by pulling the dial outward.
- Gently pull the brace tongue forward to loosen the fit.
- Slide your foot out of the brace.

Have questions?
What is the brace made of?
Our braces are made from a blend of polyester for durability, moisture-wicking, and a secure fit, combined with Neoprene and Polyamide for compression, and support.
How firm should the brace be and how do I tighten it?
Your brace should feel snug and supportive, but never painful. You should be able to move your toes easily and slip two fingers under the brace comfortably. If your foot feels numb, tingling, or turns pale, it’s too tight.
Most people find a moderate fit gives the best support for plantar heel pain: firm enough to reduce stress on your heel and arch, but gentle enough to wear throughout the day.
Tips:
- Start wearing it for a few hours and gradually increase time.
- Adjust the fit slightly for activity vs. rest.
- Combine with stretching and supportive shoes for best results.
Ankle brace straps:
The ankle brace straps wrap around the foot in a criss-cross pattern at the front of the ankle. This criss-cross design helps provide even support and stability across the joint. After crossing in front, the straps continue around the ankle and fasten at the back, helping secure the brace firmly in place.
BOA system:
The BOA system uses a dial and cable to tighten or loosen the brace. To loosen it, you pull the BOA dial outward until it clicks. To tighten it, you push the dial back in and turn it, which pulls the cable evenly for a secure and adjustable fit.
Will the brace alone fix my pain?
Pain relief is usually the result of a combination of factors, not just one solution. A brace can be an excellent starting point, it helps provide support, stability, and relief while you move and recover. For best results, it’s often most effective when combined with other healthy habits such as gentle massage, Ice/heat, stretching, and strengthening exercises.

How do I know if I have plantar heel pain / plantar fasciitis
-Heel Pain, Especially in the Morning on first step. Often the first few steps out of bed are sharp or stabbing. Pain may improve after walking a bit but can return after long periods of standing or activity.
-Pain at the Bottom of the Foot. Usually near the heel, sometimes radiating along the arch. It can feel dull, aching, or sharp depending on the day.
-Pain after Activity, Not During. Running, walking, or standing a lot may make it worse afterward, rather than during the activity itself.
-Tenderness When Pressed. Press the inner heel or along the arch; tenderness is common in plantar fasciitis.
-Stiffness or Tightness. The arch or heel may feel tight, especially after rest or sitting.
Note: It is always safest to consult a health professional.
