This can help if you want to

  • Run again, for fitness or competition
  • Surf, swim or walk on the beach without risking your everyday leg
  • Get back to the gym, cycling or team sport
  • Get more out of your everyday prosthesis when you exercise

Running

Running-specific feet (blades) attach to a dedicated socket, or to your everyday socket with an adaptor. We talk through blade stiffness, socket fit and suspension for your sport, and help you start safely, ideally alongside a coach or physio.

Water and beach

Water-resistant feet and dedicated swim or surf legs let you get in the ocean without risking your everyday prosthesis.

Funding

Sports prostheses can be harder to fund. The NDIS may fund one where it supports your goals, and some people self-fund. We will help you understand your options before anything is made.

Frequently asked questions

Can I run on my everyday prosthesis?+
Short jogs are possible on some everyday feet, but running regularly is usually more comfortable and safer on a running-specific foot. We can assess what suits your goals.
Do I need a separate leg for swimming?+
Most everyday prostheses should not get wet. A water-resistant or dedicated swim leg lets you swim, surf and shower safely.
