Description
A nation-wide free program, the Amputee Walking School has helped thousands of amputees
worldwide achieve their own personal goals of mobility. Throughout the course, Dennis and
Todd will guide amputees through a series of fun exercises in a casual environment to help with
increased flexibility and strength to achieve the best performance from their prosthesis.
For over 29 years, Paralympic Gold Medalists, Dennis Oehler and Todd Schaffhauser have
helped over 25,000 amputees world-wide with this 100% free program, helping them optimize
the use of their prosthesis. Whether you have been an amputee for years, a brand new
amputee, or even contemplating amputation, the Amputee Walking School is a fun, casual
atmosphere filled with inspirational stories and strength-training exercises.
Dennis and Todd take a hands-on approach to training physical therapists at the Walking
School, encouraging the therapists to work one-on-one with the amputees. The Amputee
Walking School is also perfect for students, occupational therapists, physicians, restorative
nurses, wound care specialists, case managers/social workers, discharge planners, and diabetic
counselors.
