How the AlterG Treadmill Works
The AlterG treadmill uses an air chamber that surrounds the user’s lower body to create differential air pressure, reducing the user’s body weight by anywhere between 20 and 100 percent. This reduction in body weight allows users to perform exercises and activities that may otherwise be too difficult or painful to perform on land.
Pain-Free Weight Loss & Injury Rehabilitation
The AlterG anti-gravity treadmill is a state-of-the-art rehabilitation tool that uses differential air pressure to reduce the user’s body weight, allowing for a pain-free workout experience. It has been used by professional sports teams and physical therapy clinics to help injured athletes and those with neurological conditions recover from extremity injuries.
Benefits of Using the AlterG Treadmill
The AlterG treadmill can benefit users in many ways, including weight loss, pain management, and rehabilitation. By reducing the amount of weight bearing on the lower body, users can perform exercises and activities that may be too difficult or painful to perform on land. This can help to reduce pain and discomfort associated with injuries or neurological conditions. Additionally, the AlterG treadmill can be used as a tool for weight loss, as users can burn calories without the stress on their joints associated with traditional exercise.
