She do not need prosthetic socks anymore

I love the product so much, it saved me when I desperately needed help with my socket and my stump. So I firsthand know how beneficial the Overlay is.

Step 01 02 03 04 05

Place the liner on the residual limb.
Slide the Overlay over the liner with the air expansion system behind the limb.
The prosthesis can then be slid back on. All the air cells must be in the socket below the trim line.
Use the external pump to adjust the cushioning as you wish throughout the day. You can also use the integrated pump.
Simply deflate the Overlay (by pressing on the silver pin of the exit valve) before removing the prosthesis and the liner.
