Below Knee Prosthesis – A New Beginning with Cornerstone

Regain Your Step with Confidence

At Cornerstone Prosthetics and Orthotics Ltd, we believe that losing a limb does not mean losing your independence. Our below knee prosthesis is designed to restore your mobility, comfort, and confidence—giving you the freedom to live life on your own terms.

What is a Below Knee Prosthesis?

A below knee prosthesis is a specially designed artificial leg for individuals who have undergone an amputation below the knee. It replaces the missing part of the leg, connecting securely to your residual limb (stump) through a custom-made socket. With advanced materials and technology, we make prostheses that are lightweight, durable, and tailored to your lifestyle.

🔹 Who is it for?

Our below knee prosthesis is ideal for:

  • People with amputations due to trauma, illness, or congenital conditions.
  • Individuals who want to upgrade or replace an old prosthesis.
  • Those seeking both cosmetic appearance and functional mobility.

Whether you’re walking around your home, returning to work, or engaging in sports, we provide solutions that match your goals.

🔹Our Approach at Cornerstone

Every journey is personal. That’s why we don’t offer one-size-fits-all prosthetics. We combine clinical expertise, modern technology, and compassion to create a device that feels natural and reliable.

  • Personalized Care: We take time to understand your lifestyle, needs, and goals.
  • Advanced Technology: From 3D scanning to precision fabrication, our process ensures a perfect fit.
  • Holistic Support: Beyond the prosthesis, we provide gait training, rehabilitation, and continuous follow-up care.

🔹 Your Options

We provide a wide range of choices so you get the right prosthesis for you:

  • Socket Types: Custom rigid sockets, flexible liners, and hybrid designs.
  • Suspension Systems: Pin lock, suction, or vacuum-assisted suspension for a secure fit.
  • Prosthetic Feet: Energy-storing feet for walking comfort, waterproof options for daily use, and activity-specific feet for sports and outdoor activities.
  • Cosmetic Covers: From natural skin tones to sporty designs, your prosthesis can look and feel the way you want.
