Kerry () shows that living with SCI doesn’t stop you from staying active and doing what you love 💚

Releasing the swing phase at the right moment is key to a smooth, natural walking pattern with a prosthesis 🦿

The Genium X4’s Stance Release Feedback provides an audible beep when all criteria for stance release are met:
✅ Extended knee joint
✅ Axial load greater than 60% of bodyweight
✅ Forward rotational movement of the shank
✅ Forward inclination of the shank

This clear feedback supports safe and confident step initiation, making it especially valuable during gait training and reassuring in everyday use 🌟

The freedom to get on with the everyday.

Making a brew, carrying a plate, opening a cupboard. With Genny Zero, your hands stay free for the task at hand, helping everyday life feel more natural 💫

Spinal Cord Injury isn’t the end of Peggy’s story - it simply became part of it.

Every step forward is progress. Watch the full documentary via the link in our bio📽️

Your body, your pace. For Unuuu (), some days movement means a full workout. Other days, simply showing up for himself is enough.

Progress looks different for everyone 💚

Walking should feel safe and natural, no matter the slope or step🚶

The Genium X4’s early and late stance phase support provides customisable flexion resistance throughout the stance phase. Early support ensures smoother ramp descents and controlled walking, while late support adds stability on stairs and steeper slopes.

With 3 adjustable levels in the early stance phase and 7 in the late stance phase, Prosthetists can tailor the function to each user via the connectgo.pro app.

Every step should absorb impact, not amplify it 💫

The Genium X4’s Adaptive Yielding provides shock absorption as weight shifts onto the prosthesis, while the Maximum Stance Flexion function limits the flexion angle between 6°–12°. This is an optimal combination for a more natural movement, reduced strain, and greater stability.

The result: smoother walking and better control in everyday mobility 💙

It’s Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) Awareness Month! 💚

Ayleen, Kimi, Heike, Kerry, Tina and Peggy show us how they live and what helps them throughout their days.
