25.01.2022 One of the smallest prostheses we've had through our doors. A finger amputation may look small but can have a massive impact on day-to-day life. Simple tasks like typing in a keyboard or brushing teeth can become a pain.... This mechanical prosthetic digit is custom made to fit snug like a ring and amplifies the user's remaining finger movement. _________________ Custom Prosthetics BraceFit Naked Prosthetics #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #buildit #custommade #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newhand #lovemyjob #mechanical #superstar #workshop #artificialhand #prosthesis

24.01.2022 We love our growing prosthetic family on the Gold Coast. Earlier today the EPs @combinedwellness_au posted this video showing us a glimpse of what they get up to with our super stars. Proper targeted exercise and strength programs are especially important after amputation to manage muscle imbalances and keep the whole body happy and healthy.... Keep up the good work team! _________________ Custom Prosthetics BraceFit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #buildit #custommade #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #superstar #workout #artificialleg #prosthesis

23.01.2022 When you new leg has to match with your car colour! It took me much longer than I'd like to admit to get this just right but we're very proud of the results. ... _________________ @customprosthetics @bracefit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #buildit #custommade #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #fordmustang #ford #superstar #workshop #artificialleg #prosthesis See more

18.01.2022 Talking with the awesome crew @startfoundation_aus learning about all the ways they've been empowering those with amputation in life with specialist sport funding. Some great prints in there gallery which we hope to bring to our Mudgeeraba practice soon! ... _________________ @customprosthetics @bracefit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #AOPA #conference #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #tradeshow #artificialleg #prosthesis #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast See more

18.01.2022 We love trials! Whether it's testing out a new style of foot or checking the fit of a new socket, trials let our clients get out of the fitting room and make sure everything is comfortable in the real world! This leg is having a wet weekend on the beach and jetski before it gets finished off next week.... _________________ @customprosthetics @bracefit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #buildit #custommade #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #checksocket #dignostic #superstar #workshop #artificialleg #prosthesis #weekend

18.01.2022 It's our 1st birthday! A year ago today it all became real! After months of planning and building works, our first client walked in the door looking for something different. We love the community around us and the people we get to work with!... Here's to year 2 being as much fun as the first

16.01.2022 It's been a pretty tough over the Christmas period for a lot of people, ourselves included. Today we definitely felt that 2020 change starting to take effect with a big win for one of our longest attending clients. Jason makes it look easy but this was his first time walking with bilateral below knee prostheses! Looking forward to seeing how he improves over the next week with some intensive rehab physio and gait training. ...

13.01.2022 As a cherry to top off the AOPA congress this year we won the prize for most socially engaged on Social media! Thanks AOPA and all those involved for such a great 2019 conference! ... _________________ @customprosthetics @bracefit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #AOPA #conference #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #tradeshow #artificialleg #prosthesis #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast See more

11.01.2022 Ever wondered what it'd be like to fly? The guys @iflygoldcoast are organising their first "Allabilities" night for those looking g at giving indoor skydiving a try. Yes we've tried IT and yes it AWESOME!

08.01.2022 It's homemade tool Tuesday! It's our very own Diagnostic Socket Plaster Mould Separation Tool! Once a diagnostic test socket has been tried at home, we copy its shape and alignment using our custom made transfer jig.... Usually this process results in damaging the diagnostic socket meaning our clients need to go back to their old limb for a few days while the new socket is manufactured. For some this is not a problem but for others it means having to put up with a painful old limb. Well with this homemade tool, we can pull the socket out of the Jig damage free!

05.01.2022 We're down in Sydney this week visiting the team at Otto Bock to try out some Ischial Containment socket designs and new manufacturing materials. A lot changes in our profession and top-up training like this helps us to grow with the profession and keep up-to-date with emerging technologies. Ischial Containment is nothing new but we did learn some new casting and manufacturing techniques to help make our sockets that bit more comfortable.... _________________ Custom Prosthetics BraceFit Ottobock Australia Pty.

04.01.2022 Personal expression is part of who we are. We express ourselves through the clothes we wear, the vehicles we drive and for some it's through the cosmetic finish of their prosthetic limbs. We love seeing the personalities of our superstars reflected in their Prosthetics and the impact it has on their personal body image.... Covers like this are custom made by the Alleles team in Canada then adjusted in our workshop to contour around the specific shapes and components of the limb. _________________ Custom Prosthetics BraceFit Alleles Design Studio #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #buildit #custommade #smallbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #newleg #lovemyjob #superstar #workshop #artificialleg #prosthesis #prostheticcover #designforall

03.01.2022 We're down in Melbourne at the 2019 AOPA conference. Lots of new and emerging technologies on show and we're excited to see what we can bring back to our Gold Coast practice. This socket combines FDM 3Dprinting technology for the inner and carbon lamination outer.... It will be really exciting to see how this develops and where it will fit into our practice in the future. _________________ @customprosthetics @bracefit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #AOPA2019 #conference #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #tradeshow #artificialleg #prosthesis #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast

01.01.2022 So to celebrate we took a leaf out of our friend @barefootsal book. For our first year we've taken the first letter in our name and gone all Sesame Street by building our day around that letter! With the Circus in town it only made sense to visit the Cirque du Soleil's Cabinet des Curiosités! ... But how to get there? By City Cat cruise of course! Then our good friend Sal volunteered her Chauffeur skills and added to the experience by dusting off an old Cape she just happened to have. A short drive across the city had us sitting with a chilled bottle of bubbly (missed opportunity for some champagne, I know) at a fantastic Curry house! All in all a fantastic adventure from the Gold Coast to Brisbane, a brilliant show at Cirque and great dinner conversation to boot! _________________ @customprosthetics @bracefit #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #celebration #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #circus #cirquedesoleil #lovemyjob #adventure #artificialleg #prosthesis #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #brisbane

01.01.2022 Presenting our first true Ischial Containment socket! While this socket design isn't new (originally pioneered in the early 1980's) it's the first time we've made one which is why back in November we headed down to Sydney for the @ottobock_australia TransFemoral training course. We're constantly looking to improve our practice and provide the best solutions for our clients needs. Even though it took a little longer to get it just right we're very proud of what we have achieve...d. Now for a diagnostic test in the real world before manufacturing a final socket for everyday use. _________________ Custom Prosthetics BraceFit Grant Crosthwaite #Prosthetist #Orthotist #localbusiness #lifechanging #prosthetics #Queensland #Mudgeeraba #Goldcoast #buildit #custommade #newbusiness #supportlocalbusiness #amputee #newleg #lovemyjob #checksocket #dignostic #superstar #workshop #artificialleg #prosthesis
