Q: Are there microprocessor-controlled prosthetic knees?

A: Yes. Microprocessor-controlled knees use advanced sensors and algorithms to adjust automatically to your walking speed, slope, and terrain, providing smoother movement and more natural gait. These devices can enhance stability, efficiency, and confidence, helping reduce fatigue and the risk of falls. Options like the C-leg, Genium, Rheo, Intuy, or Power Knee offer features such as stumble recovery, variable cadence walking, and stair navigation.

At Real Life Prosthetics, our clinical team carefully evaluates your activity level, K-level, and mobility goals to determine if a micorprocessor knee is right for you, ensuring the device supports your indepenence, safety, and lifestyle.

Q: Can orthosis be used after surgery or injury?

A: Yes. Orthosis can provide stability, protect healing structures, reduce strain, and assist recovery after surgery, fractures, or other injuries. They support proper alignment, help prevent further infirm, and allow for a safe and gradual return to mobility and daily activities.

At Real Life Prosthetics, our clinical team works closely with your surgeon, therapist, and you, evaluating your needs and fabricating your orthosis in our in-house lab for a precise, comfortable fit. With ongoing monitoring and adjustments, orthosis can enhance healing, improve function, and support independence throughout your recovery journey.

Q: Can I wear different shoes with my prosthesis?

A: Yes. Many prostheses are designed to accommodate a range of shoes, but shoe height, heel type, or sole thickness can affect the alignment, fit, and comfort of your device. For example, wearing high heels, boots, or athletic shoes may require small adjustments to maintain proper limb alignment and safe mobility.

At Real Life Prosthetics, our clinical team guides these adjustments, helping you modify your prosthesis or make minor component changes so you can enjoy your favorite shoes safely. Whether it's daily wear, dress shoes for special occasions, or performance footwear for sports, we ensure your prosthesis supports both function and lifestyle.

We think it’s safe to say… it’s probably time for a new glove Tom. 😂. 😂

Tom puts his osseointegrated myoelectric prosthesis to work everyday. Yard work, working on his cars, taking apart his washing machine, or whatever else needs to get done. He doesn’t let his prostheses slow him down, and judging by this glove, he certainly isn’t afraid to put it to work.

That’s what we love to see. A prosthesis being used as part of everyday life, not sitting on the shelf. Keep putting it to work, Tom. 🦾
