An attractive and comfortable alternative to traditional rigid Ankle Foot Orthosis, the SAFO is completely produced of Silicone and a high quality innovation in the Ankle Foot Orthosis.
A new way of mobility

Medical trials show that the SAFO alleviates symptoms of drop foot that affect many Cerebral Palsy, stroke, Multiple Sclerosis, Polio, Peripheral Neuropathy and Guillian Barré Syndrome patients. The SAFO provides support down the front of the leg and on to the top of the foot to assist the lifting of the foot during the swing phase of walking, thus preventing the patient from tripping.
The benefits of the SAFO:
• | Allows "normal" foot ankle action |
• | Improved sensory feedback |
• | Improved balance |
• | Can be worn discreetly against the skin |
• | Can be worn with or without a shoe |
• | Easy to fit, clean and maintain |
• | Reduced risk of pressure sores |
• | Increases walking speed |
• | Can be worn for showering or swimming |
