For a few years now,
rehabilitation in veterinary medicine has shown veritable headway. This
discipline brings many new therapeutic alternatives such as orthotics and
prosthetics.
Ortho Design is an innovative new company that specializes in the design and
manufacturing of orthotic and prosthetic devices for animals. In close
collaboration with veterinarians, Ortho Design determines the specific needs
relating to orthopedic apparatuses for animals with physical disabilities. The
latter occurs when the musculoskeletal system or neurological system is affected
after a trauma, a disease or by a congenital disorder.
Just like humans, animals may now benefit from orthotics and prosthetics, which
contribute to improving and prolonging the quality of life of the animals
suffering from temporary or permanent functional limitations.
