Experience the AlterG Treadmill in La Grange at FYZICAL Chicago

The AlterG treadmill is an out-of-this-world tool — literally. The treadmill was originally developed by NASA to help astronauts work out and do conditioning while in space. Now, it has become more readily available to the public, exposing its suitability for sports therapy, physical therapy, surgical recovery, neurological rehabilitation, and even arthritis symptom management.

At FYZICAL Therapy & Balance Centers® La Grange clinic, we can’t wait to see how this tool transforms how you exercise. Even the least enthusiastic runners may find this protocol effective and enjoyable under the guidance of our experienced physical therapists.

What Is the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill?

To use the AlterG treadmill, the lower half of your body is encased in a low-pressure chamber that relieves some of the weight on your joints, allowing you to run with less resistance and gravitational pull.

Historically, the anti-gravity treadmill has supported the military, professional sports teams, and the world’s leading medical professionals to facilitate healing and training without the additional stress of body weight holding them down. Now, it’s ready to help you achieve better health and mobility as part of an injury recovery plan, physical therapy, and even simple workouts.

Who Can Benefit From Anti-Gravity Treadmill Physical Therapy?

Aside from being a fun and interesting way to approach exercise, anti-gravity workouts can be highly beneficial for many people. Because they relieve some of the pressure on your joints and legs, they are a more accessible method of moving and can promote faster, safer healing for those recovering from an injury or surgery. Our anti-gravity treadmill here in Chicago supports:

  • Athletes with sports injuries
  • Older adults with arthritis and mobility issues
  • People regaining mobility after a traumatic brain injury (TBI)
  • People maintaining mobility who are affected by neurological conditions
  • People looking to lose weight
