Functional Shells
Mechanical exaggerations of the foot may require a functional orthosis, rather than a passive orthosis, to support or correct the foot. MatPLUS prefabricated functional shells are an economical and instant solution. Functional shells are available in flex or rigid form and are constructed of strong polypropylene plastic or HDPE, providing superior support or control when foams alone would be prohibitively bulky. Our 3/4 length shells can be layered with foams or top covers. Shells are thermo-moldable and able to be sculpted to fit any foot precisely.
