As part of Limb Loss & Limb Difference Awareness Month, we’re celebrating resilience, courage, and determination in our community.

Today, we want to see what strength looks like for you — whether it’s your prosthesis, your progress, or a milestone you’re proud of. Your prosthesis is more than just a device — it’s part of your story, your independence, and something worth celebrating.

Show us a photo of you and your prosthesis out and about, or take part in our 40 Movement Challenge and share your journey with us!!

As we continue to bring awareness to limb loss and limb difference during , we want to highlight the connection between wound care and the risk of limb loss — especially for those living with diabetes and peripheral arterial disease (PAD).

In Canada, ~3 million people live with diabetes, and 1 in 5 may develop foot ulcers — a serious condition that can lead to amputation if left untreated. PAD is another condition that can cause wounds and increase the risk of limb loss.

The good news? Many of these outcomes are preventable.

Education and awareness are key. Knowing what to look for — and seeking care early — can make all the difference.

Make everyday tasks easier with smart home devices! 🏠✨

With Amazon Echo Dot or Google Nest, you can control lights, thermostats, and more—using just your voice or phone.

Perfect for anyone with limited mobility or anyone looking for a simpler daily routine.

💡 Tip: Start small—control one device and see how it feels!

Most people think limb loss only happens after an accident.
In Canada, the leading causes are actually:

➡️ Diabetes & poor circulation (~70% of amputations)
➡️ Trauma & accidents
➡️ Cancer
➡️ Congenital differences
➡️ Infections

Early awareness and care can make a huge difference. At WinPO, we provide support and prosthetic care for every stage of the journey—right here in Winnipeg.

This April, as we celebrate 40 years of Limb Loss & Limb Difference Awareness Month, we reflect on how far care has come. Prosthetic and orthotic services are more advanced, and awareness has grown — but many communities still don’t have care in their own city.

Here in Manitoba, we’re proud to provide quality, local care within Winnipeg and also to communities throughout Manitoba with our regular clinics in Dauphin for prosthetic care and Portage la prairie for prosthetics and orthotics care.

Whether it’s your first fitting or an adjustment, we’re here to support you, understand your lifestyle, and walk with you every step of the journey.

Care close to home isn’t just convenient — it’s community, connection, and support.

"In case you missed it… we’re kicking off the 40 Movements Challenge this April in honour of Limb Loss & Limb Difference Awareness Month’s 40th anniversary!

The Challenge: Every day this month, spend 10 minutes moving your body — with 40 repetitions of any activity you choose!

Here are some ideas:
40 steps around your living room
40 arm raises while seated
40 arm circles
40 seconds of balance
Or mix and match! For example: 20 steps + 10 minutes of stretches + 10 arm circles

Listen to your body, have fun, and keep moving until the end of the month!

We want to see your progress — share your daily activities with us and let’s cheer each other on! 🙌

This year, celebrates 40 years of community, advocacy, and progress!

Can you believe just four decades ago, awareness of limb loss and the challenges faced by amputees was almost non-existent?

Today, strong communities across Canada — and even online around the world — provide support, connection, and empowerment for people living with limb loss and limb differences.

To mark this milestone, we’re launching the 40 Movements Challenge! 🦿🦾 Throughout April, we invite you to move, celebrate, and help raise awareness. More details coming next Monday — for now, get ready to join in and make every movement count!

Today on April 1, Winnipeg Prosthetics & Orthotics is proud to celebrate 40 years of serving amputees and patients across Manitoba and Western Ontario.

Since opening our doors in 1986, our focus has always been the same—helping people move, live, and thrive. From our founders to today’s team, that commitment continues to guide everything we do.

Today, under the ownership of Bram Kok, Eric Kuhl, and Marc Pepin, we continue to build on that legacy - combining experience, innovation, and compassionate care for every patient we serve.

As we celebrate this milestone, we’re grateful for the patients, families, and community who have been part of our journey.
