Running like any other

People with both cut legs can also run, as seen in the picture. This requires agile prostheses with joints as people.

What was once a dream, today has become reality thanks to the results of research conducted over two years by Blatchford. Success is based on a new carbon composite. The main characteristic of this material is its lightness and its high mechanical strength.

This skeleton of composites is applied articulate mechanisms adapted to each person; foot, knee, pneumatic and hydraulic regulators, etc. This results in normal leg movements. The correct selection of the components of the artificial leg allows obtaining the most suitable prosthesis for each user, both for the elderly and young.

Returning to the situation before cutting your legs, therefore, is not a dream.
