Re. swim / shower prosthesis

Klaus Moldt, Physiotherapist

I was reading Marty’s repuest about swim and shower prosthesis. Instead of

making a whole new prosthes for ” only ” showering and swimming. Why not just

put on a sock, made of rubbery material, pump out the air, to make a vacuum

around the limp and prosthes. That way you keeps the prosthes dry and it sure is

easier, than carying a ” spare ” leg around.

One company who deals whit such a device is Tec Motion Scandinavia AB, from

Helsingborg, Sweden. The product is called XeroSox. It should be waterproof even

for swimming at the beach.

Mary I know it wasn’t what you repuested, but I couldn’t help it. I had to tell

about it.
