Anti-Gravity Treadmill

Rehabilitation after an injury or surgery can sometimes be difficult because of pain. The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill®, developed with NASA technology, solves this problem by allowing patients to exercise at reduced body weight, while maintaining normal running or walking movements.

At Atlantic Rehabilitation, we offer this anti-gravity treadmill for a wide variety of patients, such as:

• Orthopedic patients with limited strength, weight-bearing restrictions or those recovering from surgery
• Lower extremity amputees learning to use their prosthetic device
• Arthritis patients and older adults whose pain limits their movements
• Athletes recovering from injuries
• Active runners looking to reduce stress on their muscles and joints
• Post-physical therapy patients who want to re-establish an exercise routine
• Neurological patients in need of gait or walking training
• Adults looking to lose weight

Benefits of the Anti-Gravity Treadmill

With the AlterG, rehabilitation can begin sooner regardless of limited mobility or weight-bearing restrictions. Other benefits include:

• Pain-free movement
• Rapid return of motor control
• Protection of tissue that is still healing
• Improved range of motion
• Smooth progression to full recovery
