Our services
For every situation, the best solution for you
Cranial helmet therapy
We understand your concerns when you notice that your baby has an irregular skull shape. Our unique cranial remolding helmet is designed to gently guide your baby’s skull growth toward a more symmetrical shape. The helmet is custom-fitted using the latest 3D scanning technology. We are happy to assist you and your baby!
Leg prostheses
At Protec, you can walk out with a perfectly fitting leg prosthesis within four hours, thanks to our direct socket fitting method. We don’t just provide a prosthesis, we offer a complete package. We guide you through every step of the process. Your way of walking deserves our full attention, ensuring you move comfortably and confidently. We are here to help you!
Sports blades
When was the last time you went for a run? We understand better than anyone that you want to stay active and participate in sports, even when wearing a leg prosthesis. That’s why we offer the opportunity to try out a sports blade for three months. During this time, you will receive training from movement coach Frank, who will help you get started with the blade and provide useful tips. We are here to assist you!
Extra services
Improve your gait with our movement advice
Gait analysis
Would you like to know how you walk and/or whether you can improve your walking pattern? You can have your gait analyzed in our walking lab. We call this a gait analysis.
Movement training
We find it important that you get the most out of your prosthesis. Our movement coach provides movement advice and walking training. He has been training prosthetic users in walking with their daily prostheses for many years.
We are only happy, when you are
"Renee had a moped accident at the age of 16 and has been wearing a leg prosthesis ever since. She has been a client at our Utrecht location for several years and first got to know Protec in Amsterdam: "What a special place! You absolutely don’t feel like a patient, because there is no medical atmosphere at all. The small-scale setting also creates a great feeling. Actually, it’s hard to explain—you have to experience it."

"I arrived in the morning and left the house at four o'clock with a new prosthesis. At other instrument makers I was cast in plaster, I had to wait weeks for a tube and I had to make adjustments all the time. This was good at once. I could walk away with it right away, the tube fit like a glove. This prosthesis is attached to my leg and feels like one whole. That is quite a progress. Even though I don't walk much, I want to walk stable and good and I can do that again."

A few years ago, Carla shared in her previous experience story how, after the amputation of her legs and arm due to dystrophy, she unexpectedly learned to walk again with her prosthetic legs. Since then, she has taken enormous steps – both literally and figuratively. Carla has started running on blades and she talks more about it in the interview. "Running really feels like freedom to me!"
