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 arm and leg prosthetics, and effective helmet therapies for positional head deformities. Using precise 3-D 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 promote acceptance through 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 disorders (e.g., cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, spina bifida)
- Orthopedic deformities (e.g., scoliosis, hip dysplasia, clubfoot)
- Weakness of the foot lift and unsteady gait
Our Range of Services
Plagiocephaly Home Therapy
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 a 3-D scan—progress is transparent and measurable.
Prosthetics
We’re also here for you when it comes to lower-limb prosthetics: We manufacture 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 Habitus prostheses and decorative arm prostheses. These lightweight, custom-fitted models harmoniously complement the body image, 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 pressure on the muscles—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 nighttime orthoses gently hold the feet, knees, or hands in the optimal therapeutic position while you sleep. The custom-made splints, made of lightweight, breathable materials, support gentle stretching of the muscles, prevent contractures, and help correct misalignments.
We primarily rely on dynamic nighttime orthoses. They allow for gentle stretching, increase comfort, and can yield in a controlled manner in the event of nocturnal spasticity. This reduces pressure peaks and lowers the risk of pressure sores. This allows the orthosis to exert its therapeutic effect throughout the night—so that your child can move about during the day with less pain, greater mobility, and more confidence.
Scoliosis Braces
Our scoliosis braces are custom-made for each child using state-of-the-art 3D scanning technology. The goal is to guide the growth of the spine in a targeted manner, correct the curvature as effectively as possible, and prevent the scoliosis from progressing.
Thanks to their precise fit, our braces are very comfortable to wear and can be easily integrated into everyday life. Upon request, we can customize them in various colors or with individual designs. Throughout the entire treatment period, we support children and their families with regular checkups and adjustments. Working closely with doctors and physical therapists, we ensure that the brace fits perfectly and can be fully effective—while maximizing freedom of movement and quality of life.
