Our Focus
Comprehensive Care in Pediatric Orthopedics
As a specialized center, we focus on three closely interrelated areas: state-of-the-art orthotics, custom-fit upper and lower limb prosthetics, and effective helmet therapies for positional head deformities. Using precise 3D scanning technology and lightweight high-tech materials, we manufacture custom orthoses, prostheses, and cranial helmets that grow with the child, are suitable for everyday use, and are well-received thanks to their colorful designs. Our interdisciplinary teams support children and their families from the initial consultation through rapid on-site fitting to regular follow-up care—ensuring that mobility, participation, and a zest for life become a natural part of daily life.
Typical indications:
- Neurological conditions (e.g., cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, spina bifida)
- Orthopedic deformities (e.g., scoliosis, hip dysplasia, clubfoot)
- Weak foot lift and unsteady gait
Our Range of Services
Home Treatment for Plagiocephaly
Does your child have a flattened spot on their head? With the gentle Talee helmet therapy, you can prevent long-term damage: The custom-fitted orthosis grows with your child and is monitored every three weeks via 3D scan—progress is transparent and measurable.
Dentures
We’re here to help with lower-limb prosthetics, too: We create custom-made prostheses that are lightweight and durable. State-of-the-art 3D scanning technology, child-friendly designs, and our close collaboration with therapists ensure that every child can move around safely, play, and actively participate in daily life.
Habitus prostheses
For children with forearm amputations, we offer aesthetic cosmetic and decorative prosthetic arms. These lightweight, custom-fitted models harmoniously complement the body’s appearance, can be designed in a variety of colors, and provide confidence while playing, running around, and growing up. This helps every child feel whole and self-assured.
AFO & DFO – Strong Support for Small Steps
Our AFOs (ankle-foot orthoses) stabilize the ankle and foot, promote proper gait, and relieve muscle strain—ideal for cases of paralysis, misalignment, or muscle weakness. The more flexible DFOs (Dynamic Foot Orthoses) support foot movement and proprioception without restricting natural dynamics—perfect for active kids who need more freedom of movement.
Nighttime orthoses
Our night splints gently hold the feet, knees,
or hands in the optimal therapeutic position while the muscles relax. Custom-fitted splints made of lightweight, breathable materials promote stretching, prevent contractures, and correct misalignments—all without disturbing a good night’s sleep. This way, the therapy works all night long so that your child remains pain-free and
mobile during the day.
Scoliosis Braces
Our scoliosis braces are custom-made using state-of-the-art 3D scans and help guide the growth of the spine and correct misalignments. They are lightweight, breathable, and available in many colors and designs—making them more comfortable to wear and often a little cooler, too. Through regular check-ups and adjustments, we support children and adolescents every step of the way to ensure the brace works optimally while maintaining as much freedom of movement as possible in daily life.
