About

Us

Balanced Frameworx (BF) mission is to provide mostly older amputees and other limb-deficient individuals with funds to acquire necessary prosthetic limbs. The number of people needing prosthetics is staggering. According to Amputee Coalition almost 200K individuals per year in the US alone have amputations with a gross total of over 2M people in the US with missing limbs. When you consider someone with limb deficiency their body can't make simple micro-adjustments to stay upright, it can be debilitating and depressing. Having control of our body's balance is something many of us take for granted. So whether their limb deficiency was by birth, disease, or by accident we're here to fulfill lives by helping to provide that missing piece. Our goal is to put balance back into their lives by strengthening each frame through financial support. BF is here to enable people and restore their confidence by providing hope.

What is a prosthetic limb

and how does it help?

A prosthetic limb is an artificial replacement for a missing body part, more commonly an arm or leg. It's designed to allow amputees to walk, run, climb stairs, and perform daily activities they might not be able to do without assistance. Prosthetics empower amputees to live more independent lives, giving them the ability to move freely and participate in more activities.

Depending on the complexity of the prosthetic, it can help restore lost functions, such as gripping objects with an artificial hand.

Prosthetics can offer a sense of normalcy reducing the social stigma associated with missing limbs while also boosting confidence and self-esteem.

WHY US

WHY CHOOSE US

APPLY FOR FUNDING ASSISTANCE

OUR MISSION

Empowering mobility, one prosthetic limb at a time. We bridge the financial gap to provide artificial limbs for those in need.

THE TRUE REALITY

Many candidates are unable to get the care or tools they need for many reasons. There are barriers of emotional numbness or they're psychologically paralyzed. Other obstacles might be prosthetic access/availability or compatibility such as proper fit or function but, the bigger issue for others is cost.

FIT to COST

Every individual is built different and each limb deficiency is unique. This is why every situation is treated as a custom design therefore increasing the cost of an artificial limb. This is why mass production is limited to some parts but not a complete prosthetic.

OUR SERVICES

Our dedication to making life easier for individuals who were born with missing limbs or have had an amputation. We provide prosthetic purchasing assistance, but it doesn't stop there. Our vision for the future will include learning centers, networking communities, and other related resources.

DESIGNS AND BUILDS

Modern design in the arena of prosthetics have made significant strides with enhancement, functionality, comfort, and appearance. These advancements continue to improve the lives of individuals, offering them greater mobility and independence.

POST PROSTHETICS

Once an amputee is fitted with a prosthetic limb, therapy for learning how to use the prosthetic such as walking, running, going up and down stairs is sometimes required. Additionally, ongoing care and adjustments will be essential to ensure optimal function and comfort.
