The AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill® is specifically designed to help with training and rehabilitation allowing you to:

  • Reduce gravity's impact by reducing body weight by 0–80% in 1% increments.
  • Rehabilitate lower extremity injuries with less pain and less impact.
  • Improve mobility, strength and safety for those with neurological conditions.
  • Provide a safe way to lose weight and exercise more intensively while unweighted.
  • Train without pain and reduce the stress to joints and muscles.
  • Recover effectively and with less pain after training or competition.
The AlterG®Anti-Gravity Treadmill® is frequently used by individuals with lower extremity injuries and also athletes aiming to train with less impact (e.g. recovery runs).
You will be provided with an introduction to the AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill® during your first visit and assistance during the session if required. However, it is anticipated that you will come prepared with your own training and/or rehabilitation plan which has been set by a suitable physiotherapist or coach. Solent University will not take responsibility if the rehabilitation session you carry out is not suitable for your current injury status.
