✨Introduction to silicone hand making.✨

Usually prosthetic devices are made from moulds of patients hands. This is a positive cast of one side of a hand and will be used as reference for the finished design.
Loving into work daily makes my spirit smile when I see my screen saver!
#Prosthetics4Life
Today I’m making coloured swatches for a prosthetic hand. Here I’m mixing the base colour for the palm of a hand and finger tips!

A very timely processing but worth it ✨I will be making a prosthetic @hypersub soon where my supporters can get a scoop into the exclusive process of creating silicone prosthetic’s! 🤲
Here are some of the silicone prosthetics, created by my Team for patients over the years!

I will be spending the next few months learning some of their techniques and sharing my own knowledge as their new Professional Clinical Specialist in silicone.
Next week I start a brand new journey in my career that will change everything for me. Be prepared to see more prosthetics on here!
Happy New week everyone!

Weigh lifting with Prosthetics 🦾

Upper limb prosthetics is very popular in fitness and Olympic sports. Here is a prosthetic arm designed with a detachable wrist unit for safety and easy to put on and off mechanism. The carbon fibre exterior ensures it’s strong and durable while lifting.

Lower limb prosthetics in Paraolympics

Did you know that prosthetics is helped to assist Athletes in the paraolympics?
Para-cycling is one of the few sports that prosthetic technology is used.

The designs focus on aerodynamics, and making it easier for cyclists to have speed while combating aerodynamic drag and resistance, that may slow them down while cycling.

For this reason the design is more streamlined and thin. Think of a penguin and its body shape being streamlined, to help swim quickly and fast despite water resistance. It’s a similar concept.
Gm! NFA Prosthetics is cooking up something new on base! Stay tuned ✨
I will be taking you guys on my creative journey in prosthetics very soon ✨
