Balaji Robotic Rehab Hospital is a leader in providing personalized, high-quality care for individuals with limb loss. Our Artificial Limb Clinic is dedicated to providing comprehensive, cutting-edge prosthetic solutions that empower patients to regain their mobility, independence, and confidence. With our personalized care and advanced technology, we help patients move forward with their lives and embrace new possibilities.
An artificial limb, also known as a prosthesis, is a medical device designed to replace a missing or amputated limb. These prosthetics are custom-made to fit each patient’s specific needs, ensuring they mimic the appearance, function, and feel of a natural limb. Whether the amputation is due to trauma, disease, or congenital conditions, artificial limbs allow individuals to regain lost functions such as walking, grasping objects, and even performing complex tasks.
The goal of prosthetics is to restore not only physical abilities but also to improve the patient’s emotional well-being by enhancing self-esteem and promoting independence.
There are various reasons why individuals may need an artificial limb, but it is important to understand that prosthetics are used after the amputation of a limb. The reasons for amputation can include:
When a patient faces one of these conditions and undergoes limb loss, an artificial limb is often the key to restoring mobility, improving quality of life, and increasing independence.
The rehabilitation process for individuals with artificial limbs is a comprehensive journey that includes both physical therapy and psychological support. The goal is to help patients not only adapt to their new limb but also regain the skills necessary to perform everyday tasks.
Before a prosthetic limb is fitted, an assessment is conducted to evaluate the patient’s overall health, limb condition, and specific needs. This includes physical evaluations, such as muscle strength, skin integrity, and the size of the residual limb. Psychological assessments are also important to determine the patient’s readiness for rehabilitation and to address any emotional concerns.
Once the assessment is complete, our skilled specialists work with patients to select the right type of prosthetic for their needs. At Balaji Robotic Rehab Hospital, we offer custom-fitted prosthetics using state-of-the-art technology, including leading brands like OTTOBOCK, the world’s foremost brand in artificial limbs.
The fitting process ensures the prosthetic aligns perfectly with the patient’s body and provides maximum comfort. Whether the prosthetic is for the upper limb (hand, arm) or lower limb (foot, leg), the goal is to achieve natural-looking and functional movement.
Once the prosthetic is fitted, gait training becomes an essential part of the rehabilitation process, especially for lower limb amputees. Gait training helps patients learn to walk, run, and even engage in activities like dancing or climbing stairs with their new limb.
Through physical therapy, patients work with our expert therapists to strengthen their muscles, improve balance, and practice various movements necessary for daily activities. This phase ensures that the patient regains coordination and stability, crucial for reducing the risk of falls and improving overall quality of life.
Amputation is not only a physical challenge but also an emotional one. Psychological counselling helps individuals cope with the loss of a limb, and it is an integral part of the rehabilitation process. Our clinic provides emotional support to help patients accept their new reality, build confidence, and foster a positive outlook on life.
Prosthetic devices are not static—they need to be adjusted and replaced over time. As patients’ bodies change, the fit of the prosthetic may need to be altered. Additionally, some individuals may require new prosthetics as they progress in their rehabilitation, particularly in the case of children or those with changing physical needs.Our team provides continuous care and follow-up services to ensure that each patient receives the ongoing support they need to thrive with their artificial limb.
It is crucial to begin rehabilitation as soon as possible after limb loss. Early rehabilitation helps prevent muscle atrophy and prepares the body for the prosthetic fitting. Ideally, patients should begin rehabilitation soon after the surgical wound has healed and the residual limb has stabilized.
Unlike conventional prosthetics that may feel unnatural or limit mobility, our customized, high-tech solutions offer a seamless, comfortable experience, empowering patients to embrace life without limitations.
We are a unique specialty hospital in western Tamil Nadu, offering the latest rehabilitation, robotic treatments, and clinical research services to patients at an affordable cost.
