About us
Arm Dynamics designs and fits prosthetic arms, prosthetic hands and prosthetic fingers including the bebionic hand, the i-limb ultra revolution, i-limb electric digits, and Otto Bock's Michelangelo hand and DynamicArm. We work with finger, hand and arm amputees, and people born with an upper limb difference. Our business development managers network with orthopedic surgeons, PM&R physicians, nurse case managers, therapists, hospitals and clinics to let them know about the tremendous benefits of connecting upper limb amputees with prosthetists and occupational therapists who specialize in upper limb prosthetic rehabilitation. The company was founded in 1998 by upper limb prosthetic specialist and researcher John M. Miguelez, CP, FAAOP(D), and currently has seven Centers of Excellence strategically located across the United States. While general prosthetic clinics have a patient base that is 90 percent lower limb and may see one or two upper limb amputees a year, Arm Dynamics works exclusively with upper limb amputees and sees hundreds each year. Our clinical expertise leads to advanced prosthetic designs, while comprehensive occupational therapy services assure optimal comfort and individualized prosthetic training. Our therapists even visit patients at home and in their workplace to help them integrate their prosthetic arm, hand or fingers into every aspect of life. Our team of prosthetic experts have pursued a rigorous course of study and received advanced certifications in upper limb rehabilitation. They are also engaged in international scientific research and beta test the latest upper limb prosthetic technologies from all leading manufacturers. As a result, our patients have unique access to the newest technologies and techniques from around the globe. Arm Dynamics Centers of Excellence are located in Philadelphia, PA; Dallas, TX; Houston, TX; Portland, OR; Minneapolis, MN; Cleveland, OH; and Kansas City, KS.

A custom silicone restoration does more for the patient than just look like a hand. It can be helpful mentally for the patient, allowing them to reintegrate into the world they were in; provide protection for the limb; balance for the body and more. Read about their benefits in our article:
