Our Story

After losing his leg in 2021, RAF veteran, engineer, and para-archer Rich Davies experienced the realities of rehabilitation first-hand—rebuilding strength, stability, and independence from the ground up. As a former Invictus Games competitor and now training with his sights set on the Paralympic Games, he understands the demands of long-term recovery and performance. 


Through that journey, he recognized an opportunity to enhance clinical care with dedicated, purpose-built tools, leading to the creation of LimbAxis Systems. Drawing on his lived experience and engineering insight, LimbAxis Systems focuses on developing patent-pending rehabilitation technology to support amputees in building strength, confidence, and long-term capability.

What We're Building

LimbAxis Systems is developing a patent-pending rehabilitation technology aimed at supporting individuals following limb loss. 


Designed for new amputees, established prosthetic users, and those with limb difference, this innovative system focuses on strengthening, conditioning, and structured rehabilitation across various stages of recovery. 


It serves as a crucial bridge between early rehabilitation and the ongoing use of prosthetic devices, assisting individuals as they prepare for, adapt to, and continue utilising prosthesisover time. 


Our approach is grounded in a developing portfolio of related rehabilitation devices, tailored to address different limb types and stages while ensuring a consistent and structured progression. 


The development emphasizes reducing dependence on improvised or non-specialized methods, promoting more uniform rehabilitation practices across both clinical and home environments. 


The system is being designed with the intent of integrating into existing clinical pathways, with applications including early-stage rehabilitation, conditioning, prosthetic readiness, and support for gait development in lower-limb users. 


Focus areas include: 

- Strength and conditioning for amputees and individuals with limb difference 

- Support across rehabilitation stages 

- Prosthetic readiness and ongoing use support 

- Practical, user-focused design 

- Consistent and structured progression 

- Scalable approach across different limb types

Clinical Support

“LimbAxis Systems is a very exciting concept featuring patent-pending rehabilitation technology that could significantly enhance the rehabilitation process for lower limb injured patients. Throughout my career as a physiotherapist, achieving the right progression in rehabilitation has often involved compromise. This innovative technology has the potential to address that gap and support better long-term outcomes.” — Kat Sizer, Clinical Lead & Specialist Physiotherapist in Amputee Rehabilitation


“I believe this concept has strong potential to enable individuals to exercise safely and effectively where previously they may not have been able to.” — Dr Rhodri Phillip OBE

Development

We are currently in the early stages of prototype development for LimbAxis Systems, combining engineering expertise with clinical insight to shape a practical, user-focused solution. This development is supported by clinicians specializing in amputee rehabilitation, ensuring alignment with real-world needs and best practices in our patent-pending rehabilitation technology. 


Initial versions will undergo structured user testing to gather meaningful feedback and refine the design. Each iteration is focused on ensuring the system is safe, effective, and relevant within rehabilitation settings. 


We are actively progressing development with a view to future collaboration, partnerships, and potential integration within existing rehabilitation and prosthetic pathways.

From Amputation to Innovation - LimbAxis Named UK StartUp Awards Finalist

LimbAxis Systems has been named a finalist for the Rising Star Award at the East of England regional final of the UK StartUp Awards 2026.


As a veteran and amputee, LimbAxis started from my own experience of rehabilitation and the gaps that still exist - so this recognition means a lot at this stage of the journey.


We’re still early and still building, but proud to reach this milestone.


If we progress, we’ll head to the national final at Ideas Fest in September.

Prototype Clinical Evaluation Begins

A significant milestone for LimbAxis Systems.


The second iteration of our rehabilitation prototype has now been completed, with structured clinical evaluation preparing to begin alongside patients and clinicians within real rehabilitation environments.


The original proof-of-concept was intentionally basic. Its purpose was simple: to determine whether the core concept had the potential to address a genuine challenge within rehabilitation and limb-loss recovery.


The initial outcomes justified continued development.


Over the past few years, the concept has undergone substantial refinement through iterative design, clinician feedback, rehabilitation insight, and real-world lived experience — with a strong focus on usability, practicality, and patient application.


Version 2 represents an important step forward.


Whilst still some distance from a final commercial product, it marks the transition from early concept development into structured evaluation and further validation within clinical settings.


What makes this particularly important to us is that the solution has not been developed in isolation from the people expected to use it. From the beginning, development has been shaped through both clinical expertise and first-hand experience of injury, rehabilitation, chronic pain, limb loss, and long-term recovery.


That combination has consistently guided both the problem we are trying to solve and how we approach solving it.


Even at this stage of development, the concept has already received external validation through being shortlisted as a finalist across two innovation-focused awards, including Innovator of the Year.


We’re incredibly grateful to the clinicians, rehabilitation professionals, patients, and wider limb-loss community who have contributed their time, expertise, feedback, and support throughout development so far.


The next phase will focus on structured evaluation, continued refinement, and understanding how the solution can be effectively integrated within real rehabilitation pathways at scale.


Still early in the journey — but an exciting and important step forward nonetheless.


Looking forward to sharing more as development progresses.
