AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill™
at Midwest Sport and Spine
As the new standard of care for physical rehabilitation, the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill is the only unweighting device that uses air pressure to precisely reduce impact and provide support for rehab patients and athletes at all levels.
The AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill integrates patented NASA Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology, a precise air calibration system and real-time information to change what’s possible in rehab and training.
Recover Your Health, Quickly
AlterG allows patients a way of non-painful, controlled weight bearing early in the recovery period. Studies show that an earlier return to activity prevents atrophy of supporting muscles, decreases swelling and improves outcomes. Above all, the AlterG helps patients recover faster and return to all their daily activities.
