PROSTHETICS - ORTHOTICS

Prosthetics is the term used to describe artificial body parts. Legs and arms are the most often thought of when thinking about prosthetics. However, prosthetics can also refer to noses, ears, eyes and joints of the body. Denver Prosthetic and Orthotic Specialists, Inc. (DPOSI) provides external prosthetic replacement to any part of an arm or leg including hands, fingers and toes.

Orthotics is the term used to describe an item worn externally to the body that offers support and controls certain body segments, including any region of the spine including the head and neck. The term orthopedic bracing is often thought of as an interchangeable word for Orthotics. An ideal Orthotic item controls only those body segments that are abnormal or undesirable and permits motion where normal function can occur. Denver Prosthetic and Orthotic Specialists, Inc. (DPOSI) offers complete Orthotic management of the arm, leg and spine.
