Upper and Lower Limb Amputee - Livonia, MI

Our team of occupational and physical therapists have experience in both upper and lower prosthetics. We collaborate with physicians, prosthetists, and case managers for the best possible outcomes in function, and we can recommend mentors to guide you through your recent experiences with amputation.

We offer state-of-the-art equipment to improve strength and balance, including the use of LiteGait, Functional Electrical Stimulation, Redcord suspension training, and mirror therapy.

Supported Treadmill Training with LiteGait

LiteGait utilizes a harness system to safely practice ambulation overground or on the treadmill without fall risks.

Functional Electrical Stimulation (FES)

FES can improve strength and walking ability, as well as decrease fatigue and risk of falling for individuals recovering from a stroke.

Redcord Suspension Training

Redcord suspension exercises allow exercises to be completed more easily in a gravity-minimized environment. This not only helps strengthen muscles, but also enhances dynamic joint stability, muscle co-activation, and muscle synergies.

Our amputee program is divided into two phases

Initial upper and lower prosthetic training, which includes:

Establishing a wearing schedule
Skin and sock management
Walking with the least needed assistive device
Performing daily tasks with the prosthesis
Transfers
Stair climbing
Family training
Home exercise program
