It was my understanding that the Garleans developed more advanced applications for ceruleum which is why they have magitek.
Not to say a non-magitek prosthetic can't be used of course; as it's been mentioned they've been around in the real world for a long ass time...and besides Eorzeans did figure out highly advanced clockwork technology (Hi mammets) so I don't think it would be a stretch to have a clock-work, non magitek prosthetic would it?
Magitek comes from the Garlean Empire, but is not exclusive to it any longer, Cid has made Magitek a bit more widely used in Eorzea (the ironworks armor and weapons are magitek), and the Machinist looks like it might use Magitek to some degree as well.
