Designed to relieve foot, ankle, knee, hip, or back pain caused by conditions like plantar fasciitis, flat feet, or high arches. Each orthotic is made from a mold of the patient’s foot and tailored for optimal support and function—whether for daily wear, athletic use, or diabetic foot care.

AFOs stabilize the ankle and foot to improve gait and prevent deformities. We offer rigid, hinged, or dynamic styles based on patient needs—for conditions like stroke, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, or foot drop.

Knee braces reduce pain, enhance joint stability, and support injury recovery. Indicated for arthritis, ligament injuries, or post-op rehab, we provide soft, semi-rigid, and rigid options, all fitted to patient anatomy and activity level.

KAFOs provide extended support from thigh to foot for neuromuscular or orthopedic conditions such as spinal cord injury or severe instability. These braces aid safe ambulation and reduce joint pain.

Used for patients with limited or no lower-limb strength, HKAFOs offer total leg support, promoting upright posture and mobility. Custom-built for maximum alignment, stability, and safety.

RGOs are specialized HKAFOs that allow a reciprocal walking motion for individuals with paralysis or spinal cord injuries. By linking hip joints, these devices enable more natural movement patterns and increased independence.

Our partial foot prosthetic solutions are tailored for individuals with great toe, forefoot, or midfoot amputations. We provide custom-designed devices such as sockets, inlays, fillers, and cosmetic covers to restore balance and mobility. The process includes consultation, precise measurement, custom fabrication, fitting, and adjustments. These prosthetics are designed for maximum comfort and function, supporting a natural gait and renewed confidence.

Designed for amputations just below the ankle joint, Symes prosthetics restore stable, efficient movement. Our custom-fitted devices use lightweight and durable materials to improve balance, reduce phantom limb pain, and support everyday activity. With a focus on comfort and realism, these prosthetics allow for confident, pain-free mobility.

For individuals with amputations below the knee, Palmetto offers a range of advanced trans-tibial solutions, including traditional socket systems, vacuum-assisted suspension (VAS), and microprocessor-controlled options. Each device is handcrafted at Palmetto and custom-fit to ensure optimal comfort, mobility, and a natural walking pattern, empowering users to return to daily activities with confidence.

Knee disarticulation prosthetics are designed for those with amputations through the knee joint. We offer personalized solutions that preserve limb length, provide a stable base for walking, and maintain a symmetrical appearance. Options include advanced knee units and suspension systems tailored to the patient’s lifestyle and mobility goals.

Our trans-femoral prosthetics are customized for individuals with above-knee amputations due to trauma, illness, or congenital conditions. Each device incorporates advanced socket design, suspension systems, and optional microprocessor-controlled knee units to enhance function, comfort, and confidence in all aspects of life—from walking to more vigorous activity.

Hip disarticulation prosthetics are among the most complex, requiring specialized expertise and care. Palmetto offers highly customized systems—including modern designs with microprocessor components—to maximize stability, movement, and independence. Our approach includes rehabilitation and support to help patients adjust to their prosthetics and reach their mobility goals.

Custom partial hand prosthetics are designed to replace one or more missing fingers, restoring essential hand function and improving grip, dexterity, and independence. Options range from individual finger components to multi-digit and hook-style prosthetics, all crafted for function and cosmetic appeal.

For patients with single or multiple finger amputations, our partial finger prosthetics improve grip strength and fine motor control. Designs include individual digits or multi-finger prosthetics.

Wrist-level prosthetics restore hand function for individuals with amputations through the wrist joint. Options include:

• Passive Prosthetics: For cosmetic restoration and lightweight use
• Body-Powered Prosthetics: For manual control through harness systems
• Myoelectric Prosthetics: Using muscle signals for intuitive, real-time movement

Each prosthetic is custom designed with a focus on balance, appearance, and daily function.

Designed for amputations below the elbow, these prosthetics restore hand and wrist movement.

Options include:

• Body-Powered Systems: Durable, cable-driven for manual control
• Myoelectric Systems: Using EMG signals for intuitive control and function.

Our elbow disarticulation solutions offer high levels of control and functionality.

Features include:

• Tailored socket design
• Lightweight materials
• Optional myoelectric hand and wrist units
• Activity-specific attachments

For amputations above the elbow, Palmetto provides comprehensive prosthetic systems that restore arm function, support a wide range of daily activities, and are customized for comfort and control.

Components typically include:

• Custom-fit socket
• Internal control system (body-powered or myoelectric)
• Functional elbow and hand mechanisms

As the most complex upper limb prosthetic level, shoulder disarticulation prosthetics require careful customization.

Options include:

• Body-Powered Systems: Using harnesses and cables for manual control

1. Offloading Pressure

Custom orthotics, braces, and specialized footwear help relieve pressure from vulnerable areas (such as diabetic foot ulcers), reducing irritation and promoting healing.

2. Preventing Further Injury

Stabilizing devices protect high-risk areas, especially in patients with neuropathy or poor circulation, helping prevent wounds or new injuries.

3. Post-Surgical and Amputation Support

Following amputations due to non-healing wounds, prosthetic devices restore mobility and help prevent secondary pressure sores from altered posture or gait.

4. Immobilization for Healing

Orthotic devices can immobilize joints or high-motion areas, allowing wounds to heal undisturbed.

Palmetto’s wound care approach is part of a multidisciplinary effort, working in coordination with physicians, wound care specialists, and therapists to promote recovery and long-term health.

We provide specialized care for children with EDS, focusing on custom orthotics, postural bracing, and pain management. Our personalized approach helps manage joint hypermobility, fragile skin, and chronic discomfort.

For children with spinal curvature, we offer custom bracing (TLSO, CTLSO) and orthotics and work with physical therapists and surgeons when needed. Early intervention improves posture, slows progression, and boosts confidence.

Our team provides custom orthotics and bracing to support movement, alignment, and posture. We coordinate with therapists to create individualized treatment plans that help each child reach their full potential.

We offer orthotic and prosthetic care to support posture and mobility. Custom bracing and lower-limb prosthetics are tailored to the child’s needs, with a focus on early intervention and family collaboration.

We provide custom bracing and splinting to correct alignment and enhance mobility. Early treatment improves foot function, reduces pain, and supports long-term comfort without invasive procedures.

Customized foot orthotics and orthopedic footwear help relieve discomfort, improve alignment, and support balance in children with flat feet. Early care helps prevent long-term issues and enhances daily mobility.

We design custom prosthetics and orthotics for children with congenital or acquired limb differences. Our care promotes mobility, independence, and natural movement through every stage of development.

For children with uneven leg length, we provide orthotics, lifts, and adjustable prosthetics to restore alignment, reduce pain, and improve gait. Treatment is tailored through collaborative care and detailed gait analysis.

Our team addresses bone misalignments using custom AFOs, KAFOs, and braces. Early treatment relieves pain, improves balance, and helps prevent complications like arthritis.

We treat toe-walking with customized orthotics that promote proper gait and reduce strain. Causes may include neurological or sensory conditions. Our team works closely with providers to deliver personalized care plans.
