plantar [fasciitis] night brace/splint
Explanation:

Plantar fasciitis is a medical condition which produces pain in the heel or arch of the foot. It is caused by pronation, or tilting the foot inward toward the center of the body while standing or walking, which stretches the arch-supporting connective tissue, called the plantar fascia. One type of therapy for this condition is to wear a plantar fasciitis night brace which holds the foot in a flexed position and stretches the plantar fascia, allowing it to heal.

This is the night brace most perfered by a patient's partner!
Soft padded, contoured posterior shell provides passive dorsi-flexion at night to address the morning symptoms of your patient's plantar fasciitis or Achilles tendonitis. The removable liner may be washed for your patient heigine. Fits right or left foot. Shipped with full length toe wedge for additional stretch on plantar fascia to be administered once the initail benefit is realised after about 6 weeks.

Since electrophoresis treatments require frequent visits to a doctor, physical therapist, or athletic trainer, the procedure is more costly and time-consuming than other types of treatment for plantar fasciitis, such as a single cortisone injection or the use of a night brace to keep the plantar fascia lengthened while you sleep.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you, Marga. Your references were most helpful, esp. the one with "soft-padded, contoured posterior shell", which seemed to match exactly what I had in mind when reading the term.
