ProStretch Review

Wow!
To say I was underwhelmed would be, well, an underwhelming understatement.
This tool is VERY sturdy, made of rigid plastic. It's very well made.
And, it DOES do a VERY good job of stretching the calf.
HOWEVER, anyone giving this thing glowing reviews isn't/hasn't been a competitive athlete. Why?
YOU CAN GET EXACTLY THE SAME STRETCH - IF NOT DEEPER - doing standard hamstring and calf stretches leaning into the wall.
THIS IS WHY I'm under whelmed. It's no different than doing standard static stretches.
As for plantar fasciatis relief, which I was hoping for, it SUCKS for stretching the fascia. The instructions read, "The plantar fascia is stretched by default when doing the exercises."
Seriously, YOU'RE MUCH, MUCH better off just grabbing your foot in one hand, and pulling your toes/ball of your foot up HARD, and holding your heel in the other to stretch your plantar fascia.
Again, it's a well made device. But I've returned it; because I have enough stuff lying around that serves no real purpose other than someone thought of way to make something to fix a problem that doesn't exist.
Good luck.

Medi-Dyne ProStretch Bi-Lateral Stretching System Review

It worked just like expected.
I had chronic trouble for more than 4 years with my feet, to the point that I started considered myself as having a severe disability.
Woke up with pain in the morning, could not get up from any sited position without pain, to the degree that pain was the only constant in my life.
Went to physiotherapy for 20 sessions, and still had 65% of the pain left.
My therapist suggested to do stretching exercises.
I came up on this product on ebay (sorry Amazon!!) and bought it.
Today after 3 5 minute sessions, I am for the first time free of pain.
I could say that I am down to 5% of the original pain that haunted my life for more than 4 years.
Thanks.
P.S. I would however suggest watching the video before exercising and in case you are not an athlete, you should start at a lower pace (2x15 seconds) than suggested (3x30 seconds).

Medi-Dyne ProStretch Unilateral Stretching System Review

I have been dealing w/ the pain of planters factitious for a while now. It's a pain having to stretch every morning or night, especially w/ a full time job and 2 children under 3. However, I leave this thing next to my bed and stretch first thing in the AM and last thing in the PM and it works very well. I first started using it while in PT and found that of all the other stretches they had me do, this one seemed like the most productive and felt the most effective.
