Product Reviews of Elgin Archxerciser Foot Strengthening Device : Great for Plantar Fasciitis and Heel Spur SyndromeProduct Review: does what it says Summary: 5 Stars
The same exercise could be achieved by scrunching a towel with your toes, but I like the gadget. It is well designed and sturdy. I feel I get a stronger pull when I place the big toe of the other foot under the heel of the exercising foot. The lift seems to make it more efficient.
No one thing will cure plantar fasciitis--I use it along with orthotics, daily stretches and a night splint. This is not a quick fix, but I have seen a slight improvement in the relief of my PF. Best of luck to you.
Product Review: excellent for foot soreness and tightness Summary: 5 Stars
This product really works. I am recovering from a broken big toe and soreness and tightness in my feet from walking "funny" during the healing. This helps to stretch out the tight muscles and relieve soreness. It also helps to loosen up the big toe that is healing and is stiff.
Product Review: reasonable in theory, bad in practice Summary: 1 Stars
For plantar fasciitis, strengthening the foot muscles would seem to be a reasonable therapy. But after five days of using this device, my p.f. pain was far worse than it had been previously. The problem was not that I went overboard using the device. I was cautious and followed the directions carefully. And, yes, the pain did decrease to its pre-device level within a week of my stopping.
