Regaining Mobility After a Knee Injury with Custom Orthotics
Knee injuries are one of the most common musculoskeletal issues affecting people of all ages. Whether from sports, aging, or workplace accidents, injuries to the ligaments, cartilage, or bone can drastically reduce mobility and quality of life. At Complete Prosthetics & Orthotics in Boise, Idaho, we specialize in restoring independence and movement through custom solutions designed to support the knee and lower limb.
How Orthotics Can Help Knee Recovery
Custom orthotics are medical devices placed inside shoes to correct gait, provide arch support, and reduce joint strain. For individuals recovering from ACL tears, meniscus damage, or osteoarthritis, knee orthotics like unloading braces can:
- Reduce pressure on the affected joint
- Improve alignment and posture
- Alleviate pain during daily activities
At Complete Prosthetics & Orthotics, our expert team evaluates your unique needs and creates personalized orthotic devices that promote healing and prevent further injury.
The Role of Prosthetics After Severe Knee Trauma
In cases of severe injury or amputation, prosthetic devices play a crucial role in rehabilitation. Modern prosthetic knees are designed for both function and comfort, offering features such as:
- Microprocessor-controlled movement
- Hydraulic swing and stance control
- Custom socket designs for comfort and control
Our prosthetics division uses state-of-the-art components to ensure that every patient receives a solution tailored to their lifestyle and mobility goals.
