The Upper Limb Library / Holistic Prosthetic Care

April is National Occupational Therapy Month. We like to use this time to reflect on how our therapists, both occupational and physical, help our patients.

At Arm Dynamics, our prosthesis fittings typically take four or five days - sometimes as short at one day, depending on the limb difference level.

Regardless of the manner of amputation, pain will be present in the weeks and months following. Here are some alternative pain-reducing techniques to try.

We help many of our patients return to work. Sometimes, depending on their job and the amputation, they may be required to transition to a different role.

There are steps that all amputees can take to help get back to their life and feeling like themselves again.

What makes our prosthetists at Arm Dynamics special? We have many reasons, but the care and skills they offer every patient is high on the list!

Different prosthetic care providers offer different areas of expertise. We are the only provider in the US that specializes exclusively in upper limb.

When introduced to the world of prosthetic care, many people think that one care provider is pretty much the same as the next. We're here to say: nope!

Our clinical team at Arm Dynamics has helped many patients use their prosthetic limb as a canvas to make some very fun alterations.

In this article, we explore ways for parents, siblings and adult children to find support while their family member recovers and adjusts.
