What You Should Know About Prosthetics

SKIN COLOUR

We are able to match your prosthetic leg to match your skin tone and make it look more natural if desired. Speak to us about our colour-match options.

It’s Not One-Size-Fits All

Each person’s prosthetic is completely custom made, according to their limb loss, and thus the functionality we can offer will largely depend on each patient and the type of amputation they’ve had.

It’s All About Activity Levels

We build our custom prosthetic solutions around one very important factor – that being our patients’ activity levels. Your activity level prior to your amputation will determine what we can offer you in terms of mobility.

Deciding What Works for You

We believe in giving advice that’s aligned with each patient’s unique lifestyle and circumstances. We facilitate them in choosing prosthetics that will suit their current lifestyle or future goals.

Prosthetic Legs

Not all patients will be able to walk freely with a prosthetic leg. Some will still have to use assistive devices such as crutches. Whether you can walk unaided or not depends on your type of amputation, whether you have enough soft tissue, or if you have good range of motion in your residual leg. Our prosthetist will discuss this with you during your consult.

Types of Prosthetics

The type of prosthetics we make and the materials we use largely depend on our patient, their needs, and their budget. We cater to all budgets, and work with a number of materials such as resin, acrylic, PVC, carbon fibre, nylon, Kevlar, silicone, fibreglass, and stainless steel.

Customisation

Each prosthetic can be completely customised, down to the finest detail. Whether you want an artificial limb or hand that stands out and wows your friends and family, or you want a natural-looking prosthetic, we can work with you and your budget to get exactly what you want.

Prosthetic Tech

Artificial limb technology has come a long way in the past few decades, and the way people are viewing prosthetics has changed hugely! Our facilities are equipped with the most current, world-class tech, such as myoelectrics or knees fitted with microprocessors, and we can help create the most impressive prosthetics – with the only limitation being your budget.

Kid’s Prosthetics

Nothing remains constant with kids, they are constantly growing and changing, and are always active, eager to explore their world. Grobbelaar & Cass understand this and work alongside parents to help them face the demands and challenges that limb or hand loss brings for young individuals.

Prosthetic Funding

There are many different ways to fund your prosthetic leg. Take a look at the options below.
