A prosthesis is designed to replace a missing limb that was absent at birth (congenital) or was lost due to a sickness or an accident.

A prosthesis is not a perfect replacement for a missing limb, or one that is seriously handicapped. However, at OP Rive-Sud we work closely with you to find the prosthesis that best suits your lifestyle, one that will allow you to do all the things you want to do with as much ease as possible.

Your lifestyle is constantly changing, and naturally you want to improve your physical condition. We encourage you to visit this website’s Reference section. There will find the results of the most up-to-date research in this important field, as well as links to the sites of various prosthetic manufacturers.
