SAFO - A superior alternative
When lacking mobility in your foot, walking with a balanced gait without tripping can prove difficult. The problem, often known as 'drop foot', affects around one in a thousand people, and can arise from a variety of medical conditions.
With a SAFO (Silicone Ankle Foot Orthosis) – a worldwide
patented range of drop foot orthoses – you can now free
yourself from troublesome walking difficulties. The SAFO works
by supporting the front of your leg down to the top of your
foot. This helps you lift your foot while your leg swings during
walking.
An attractive and comfortable alternative to rigid traditional
AFOs (Ankle Foot Orthoses), the SAFO improves your balance,
corrects your walking, stops you tripping and gives you a
newfound sense of confidence and freedom.
Find your perfect fit
SAFO is available for adults and children alike. Once we have discussed your needs and expectations during an initial consultation, we will take a plaster-cast mould. Next, we will use the measurements from this to create your bespoke SAFO. This will ensure your SAFO is as comfortable and functional as possible.
The SAFO isn't just more comfortable and functional than traditional
rigid solutions. It can also be tailored to replicate your
skin tone or your favourite colour.
