Why choose to walk or run using Alter-G Anti-Gravity Treadmill
Patients will have the opportunity to enjoy unique experiences while perceiving total lightness and ease of movement. Those who engage in a rehabilitation programme will perceive less pain and regain their neuromuscular efficiency. All those who tried the Anti-Gravity Treadmill declared they regained sensory function and a good physical condition. |
Running in the presence of a 80% body weight reduction makes it possible to:
- Facilitate the recovery of bone fractures due to functional overload.
- Regain the muscle tone of athletes who suffered from soleus injury in a shorter time and with a reduced risk of recurrence.
- Facilitate motor recovery and ambulation after stroke or coma.
- Facilitate the functional recovery of the joints of those who underwent reconstructive lower limb trauma surgery.
- Lose weight without stressing joints. |
Anti-Gravity Treadmill: the revolution
Alter-G M320 Anti-Gravity Treadmill, which was developed by NASA, USA, and patented under DAP (Differential Air Pressure) label, helps lighten the body weight. ALTER G, which lightens the body weight up to 80% while exerting constant pressure changes inside the air shell, gives patients the possibility to walk and run according to stated motor patters without affecting the biomechanics of the eccentric movement.
The gravity control results in a revolutionary approach towards rehabilitation and training of both athletes and neurological, overweight and elderly patients . It is very easy to use: in just few seconds patients will be able to walk or run at reduced load up to total disappearance of pain. The right management of the three fundamental parameters, that is to say body weight reduction, speed and inclination, helps stimulate the implementation of regeneration processes while maintaining and even improving aerobic performances, the latter being normally impaired by conventional rehabilitation techniques.
