February Meeting

  • Arlington Heights Village Hall 33 South Arlington Heights Road Arlington Heights, IL, 60005 United States (map)

Join us for our monthly meetup of amputees, where we gather to share stories, support, and learn from each other. Whether you're a recent amputee or have been living with limb loss for years, this is a safe space for you to connect with others who understand what you're going through.

Our meetings feature guest speakers who share their experiences and expertise on topics such as prosthetics, physical therapy, and mental health. We also have plenty of time for open discussion, where you can ask questions, share your own insights, and get to know your fellow members.

Tonight’s guest speaker is Paul Tyska with Altius.

The Altius Direct Electrical Nerve Stimulation System is FDA-approved to help adults living with lower limb loss who have chronic post-amputation pain, such as phantom limb pain or residual limb pain. This patient-controlled, implanted electrical stimulation device gives you the power to start treatments when you need them. For more information https://share.google/d2Qf1Ct1Wf4RX4Lw9 

Our group is open to all amputees, regardless of age, gender, or type of limb loss. We welcome individuals with congenital limb differences, amputations due to illness or injury, and those who have undergone elective amputations.

Whether you're looking for information, inspiration, or just some friendly faces, our monthly meetup is the place to be. Join us for our next gathering and discover the power of community in the face of adversity.
