The Alter G treadmill uses NASA’s Differential Air Pressure technology to comfortably support or “unweight” the user by as much as 80% of their body weight. This adjustable unweighting system can help to significantly and precisely reduce ground reaction forces, minimize discomfort and encourage movement, create a safe environment to work on walking or running technique, and allow for increased training volume without increased load.
Alter G users can expect to see a decrease in the load placed on the lower extremities to allow for a more comfortable experience with movement. This tends to lead to improvement in gait or running pattern, speed, or distance.
I had the pleasure of interacting with the entire staff in Cutlerville during my treatment. Everyone made the recovery process very tolerable, despite the “fears” of therapy that we patients/clients go through.
