AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill at Scottsdale Chirosport
What is the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill?
The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill is a revolutionary device utilized by professional sports teams and leading physical therapy centers globally. It is the definitive tool for safe running rehabilitation and accelerating recovery time by allowing users to walk, jog, or run while precisely reducing their body weight.
The core technology uses NASA-patented Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology. This system creates a sealed, pressurized air chamber around the user’s lower body, which generates a lifting force. This technology is FDA-cleared as a medical device for rehabilitation purposes.
How Does Anti-Gravity Technology Work?
The AlterG enables therapists to precisely dial in your effective body weight in 1% increments, from 100% down to 20%. This level of control is impossible with aquatic therapy or traditional body-weight support systems.
Precision Unweighting: This feature minimizes the joint stress associated with initial recovery, allowing patients to begin pain-free weight bearing activity immediately.
Gait Restoration: Practicing a normal walking or running pattern with reduced impact helps maintain optimal gait mechanics, preventing the compensation issues often seen in traditional rehabilitation limitations.
Clinical Evidence: Accelerating Recovery from Injury and Surgery
The AlterG is backed by extensive clinical evidence showing its efficacy in orthopedic and neurological rehabilitation. Its ability to provide controlled, early movement is a game-changer for reducing muscle atrophy and improving functional outcomes.
Post-Surgical Rehabilitation- Clinical evidence supports earlier mobilization following procedures like Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) and Achilles tendon repair, dramatically lowering the risk of re-injury.
Sports Injury Recovery- Allows athletes to continue running with reduced impact and maintain cardiovascular fitness during recovery from stress fractures, ligament tears, and other lower-extremity injuries.
Neurological Conditions- Provides a safe environment for neurological gait retraining and balance therapy for patients with Parkinson's, stroke, or multiple sclerosis, improving stability and functional ambulation.
