This is Jim Wulff and I am the inventor and creator of the Comfort Foot Wedge.
I have been a professional musician for over 45 years. I have also worked in the computer services industry and have an Associates Degree in that field, and have been a residential real estate appraiser from 2001 to 2008.
It was during the period I was working as an appraiser that I developed plantar fasciitis in my left foot due to extensive driving time using a clutch in an automobile with a manual transmission. I saw a podiatrist for the extreme pain I was experiencing. During that time I underwent treatment.
One aspect of my treatment was a heavy removable cast needed to limit reinjuring it at night which was common with the weight of the blankets on your feet overnight. Later I acquired a metal system that lifted the blankets off my feet but was problematic to me as I tended to gouge my feet with it while sleeping. Not seeing any alternatives out there, I developed my wedge as a more “comfortable” creation.
