Amputee Walking School
Amputee Walking School by Hanger Clinic
This course offers a unique opportunity for collaboration between amputees and therapists. Amputees of all ages and abilities, even those who do not yet have a prosthesis, are encouraged to attend.
Instructors, Todd and Curtis, provide training in advanced amputee exercises appropriate for all levels and abilities. They introduce the dynamics of prosthetic devices and how to properly control them. As a result, therapists gain necessary skills to help advance their amputee patients to the next level, and amputees learn how to use their prosthesis more effectively, enabling them to interact with their environment with more confidence.
