This can help if you have

  • Below-elbow (transradial) or above-elbow (transhumeral) limb loss
  • A congenital limb difference
  • A prosthesis that is uncomfortable, heavy or rarely worn
  • A specific task in mind, such as a tool, the gym or a bike

Types of upper-limb prostheses

Most people use more than one type for different tasks:

  • Body-powered: a harness and cable operate the hand or hook. Durable, light and gives good feedback
  • Myoelectric: a powered hand controlled by muscle signals in your residual limb
  • Activity-specific: attachments for the gym, cycling, tools or sport
  • Passive: natural-looking and light, useful for stabilising and carrying

Getting the most out of it

Upper-limb prostheses work best when they are fitted for clear goals and practised with. We can work with your occupational therapist and set realistic goals together.

Frequently asked questions

Can the NDIS fund a myoelectric arm?+
It can when it is reasonable and necessary for your goals. Myoelectric arms are high-cost assistive technology, so we provide a detailed assessment and quote, and a trial may be part of the process.
Do you make finger or partial-hand prostheses?+
Not at the moment. Call us and we will point you to someone who does.
