Protect, support and correct

Individual orthoses

An orthosis is used to stabilize, relieve, immobilize, guide or correct the limbs or torso. This prevents or corrects incorrect postures and strains. Orthopedic aids include orthopedic braces – short-term or permanent – after accidents and surgeries.

 

Orthoses are also used for congenital malpositions and age-related signs of wear. In contrast to flexible bandages, orthoses are made of stronger materials, such as plastic, in order to limit movements or correct skeletal deformities. We manufacture individual orthoses for children and adults.

Visual and functional replacement

Individual prostheses

A prosthesis visually replaces a limb and performs various functions of the missing part of the body, if necessary. While the main goal of a passive prosthesis is to look as realistic as possible,

functional, microprocessor-controlled arm and leg prostheses can also implement more complex movements (grabbing, climbing stairs, etc.).

Prostheses for finger, hand and arm

With its gestures, motor skills and sensory properties, the hand is one of the most complex organs. When it comes to replacing fingers, hands or the entire arm with a prosthesis, professional competence is absolutely crucial.

Prostheses for foot, leg, and hip

Choosing the right prosthesis and, above all, choosing the perfect shaft, plays an important role in optimal treatment with prostheses on the lower extremities.

Combined orthosis and prosthesis in one aid

Individual orthoprostheses

Orthoprostheses are aids that have both orthotic and prosthetic design features. Their aim is to compensate for the longitudinal deficit in the affected limb.

The prosthesis portion is used for this purpose. It may also be necessary to provide corrective support for the affected leg. This is where the orthotic proportion comes into play.

Greater quality of life in leisure, school and work

Individual functional aids

Personalized functional aids are used to treat amputations or congenital deformities (dysmelia) in the upper extremities. They can significantly support the user in everyday life, sports as well as in musical activities.

In principle, we can build every conceivable aid to meet individual requirements – from violin aid to eating and writing aids to steering or basketball aids.
