What is the Hero Arm?

The Hero Arm is not just any arm prosthesis. The Hero Arm is the world's first clinically approved, 3D-printed bionic arm. It is designed for adolescents and adults with partial arm amputation (below the elbow). This lightweight, responsive and customisable prosthesis combines cutting-edge technology with style and personality.

It is not a standard myoelectric solution-it is a piece of technology that inspires people to become superheroes of their own stories again.

More than a prosthesis: a community

Of course, a prosthesis is much more than just a tool. At the Amputee Care Center, we therefore believe not only in technology, but recovery, self-confidence and connection is perhaps even more important. Hero Arm users become part of a growing community of young, active people who inspire and support each other. And we are proud to accompany their journey: from first fitting to the moment they conquer the world with their new arm.

Why children and active adults embrace the Hero Arm

The Hero Arm is designed with the end-user in mind: active, expressive and full of zest for life. Today, it is the myo-electrical arm prosthesis of choice for children and adolescents. Why? Here are some of the key benefits that make the Hero Arm so appealing:

  • Multi-grip functionality: With multiple grips and advanced sensors, users can grasp objects, type, write, cycle and even play video games.
  • Intuitive muscle control: Thanks to EMG sensors, the Hero Arm responds to muscle signals in the stump. This is a technology that feels like using an extension of your own body.
  • Lightweight and comfortable: Thanks to 3D printing, the prosthesis is surprisingly light and ergonomically shaped. Ideal for everyday use!
  • Customisable design: Available in eye-catching covers with themes like Star Wars, Marvel superheroes and more. Ideal for young people who want to personalise their prosthesis and become more confident.

The difference the Amputee Care Center makes

The Hero Arm could well be called a technological masterpiece. However, a bionic arm only becomes truly functional when it is perfectly adapted to the wearer. That's what we at the Amputee Care Center excel at!!!

We combine our clinical expertise, making customised arm prostheses with personal support and total care. Thanks to our partnership with Open Bionics, we can precisely tailor each Hero Arm to the wearer's body, lifestyle and goals.

Personalised prosthesis with unique covers

The Hero Arm is without doubt the coolest myoelectric arm prosthesis on the market. Why? Because this bionic arm not only offers cutting-edge technology, but is also fully customisable. With a wide choice of colourful covers, from Disney-themed to urban street-style, you can give your Hero Arm a look that really suits you and is a true eye-catcher.

Thanks to the clever magnetic system, you can change covers in no time. Moreover, the Hero Arm grows with you: through long-term monitoring and adjustment, we make sure it always fits perfectly. So with the Hero Arm, you benefit from a mix of style, innovation and comfort like you won't find anywhere else.

Why choose the Amputee Care Center?

A Hero Arm is not a standard myo-electric arm prosthesis. It is advanced technology that only comes into its own with the right care, guidance and adjustment. At the Amputee Care Center, we make sure every detail is right: from the first encounter to annual maintenance.

Our approach is personal, expert and fully tailored to your needs.

Personal evaluation

Everyone is unique. That's why we always start with a thorough, individual evaluation. During this intake interview, we check whether the Hero Arm suits your physical situation, lifestyle and goals. Is the Hero Arm the right solution for you? Then we'll get started together.

Administration and reimbursement: we take care of it

Applying for a prosthesis can be administratively overwhelming. Don't worry: we take this completely out of your hands. We guide you step by step through the application for reimbursement, intervention or compensation via your health insurance company. So you can focus on what really matters: your rehabilitation and future.

Precise fit of the Hero Arm

A perfect fit is essential for comfort and functionality. Our specialists measure the Hero Arm precisely to fit your body type. This way, the prosthesis not only feels natural, but also works as it should - smoothly and intuitively.

EMG training and user instruction

The Hero Arm works on muscle signals (EMG), which requires some training. Don't panic: you are not alone. At our prosthesis centre, you will receive expert guidance to optimise your muscle control. We teach you step by step how to use the arm, so that you get the most out of it.

Aftercare and follow-up

Even after the first adjustment, we remain your permanent point of contact. We monitor your progress, are ready for questions or minor adjustments, and make sure your Hero Arm always functions perfectly.

Annual maintenance

A bionic arm deserves care. That is why we provide annual maintenance, during which we check the Hero Arm, clean it and, if necessary, adjust it to changes in your body or usage pattern.
