Prosthetics:
Prosthetics is the art and science of designing, fitting, and fabricating artificial limbs, or prostheses, which replicate, to a great extent, the appearance and function of a congenitally-missing or amputated body part. All prostheses are custom-made to correspond to the person's physical proportions and functional needs. Creating a prosthesis requires a high degree of anatomical knowledge, clinical training, and technological, mechanical, and artistic talents.
Our prosthetic products include, but are not limited to:
Orthotics:
Orthotics involves the design, fitting, and fabrication of orthopedic braces and support systems, or orthoses, for weakened or impaired joints and/or muscle groups, including the neck and spine. An orthosis may protect and support while a fracture heals, strengthen an area damaged by trauma or disease, correct an orthopedic condition, or prevent further injury to a particular part of the body.
