Question

There is a development of special insoles that have a unique shape to properly form the foot. The way to use them is: there are two special insoles, each built differently, and they need to be worn every day for at least half an hour, which affects the foot and over time also reduces pain. The insoles are fitted onto specific slippers provided by the seller. Is it permitted on Shabbat?

Answer

Hello Rabbi

It is permitted to use this on Shabbat.

Because there are no medicinal signs in it, and it cannot be done with medicines.
