Classic Leather Shaffer
The Classic Leather Shaffer, another style that Levy & Rappel® is well recognized for, is commonly prescribed for longitudinal arch support. The medial flange in the Shaffer orthosis is designed to provide firm arch support and extra comfort by redistributing pressure. Shaffers are most commonly prescribed with a metatarsal support to shift pressure from painful metatarsal heads to the more tolerant metatarsal shafts. Thanks to the variety of modifications offered by Levy & Rappel®, like the Balancer, the Shaffer can be worn for many types of foot conditions.

FOAMART® Impression Systems
After careful examination of the foot, mark all areas that will require modifications with an indelible pencil. This will be transferred to the FOAMART® impression to provide Levy & Rappel® with more information. In addition, you may draw a line bisecting the calcaneus so that we will have a reference line called 'Neutral'.
