The most important factor in learning to walk with a prosthesis is fitness.

Your device will be designed to fit your stump and prosthesis.

When the swelling of your stump subsides, you will first be fitted for a temporary prosthesis.

Discuss your lifestyle and goals with your prosthesis technician.

They'll want to know how much you're going to use your device so they can build something that fits your needs.

Weight and gait training

The first task is to learn how to properly transfer weight while using the equipment, where you might be worried about loads.

Your physiotherapist will work with you to understand your needs literally and help you feel more comfortable using the equipment through gait training.

It takes time to gain confidence, so be patient with yourself as you learn.

While your gait training will vary depending on your individual needs and the type of equipment you use, you can start with two parallel bars.

As you practice walking, you will use your arms to help your body maintain balance.

As you progress, you can use one hand to support the barbell to help you walk until you don't use the barbell at all.

For the best results, practice consistently and slowly.

You may find yourself more tired than before the amputation.

Since using the equipment to walk requires more physical strength, rest as needed or as recommended by your physiotherapist.
