Waco Bodymend Company Helps Patients Rehab Faster and Safer with the AlterG® Anti-Gravity Treadmill®

Waco Bodymend Company today announced that the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill, the world’s first and only treadmill using NASA based anti-gravity technology, has been installed to help patients in their short-term rehabilitation programs. 

Waco Bodymend Company plans to incorporate the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill to enhance its services, focusing on recovery, rehabilitation, and performance.  This innovative treadmill uses NASA-developed differential air pressure technology to reduce body weight, allowing clients to move freely with less stress on their joints and muscles. Here's how they might use it:

1. Rehabilitation After Injuries or SurgeriesClients recovering from injuries, surgeries, or conditions like ACL tears, fractures, or hip replacements can regain mobility safely.  The AlterG helps reduce impact, making early-stage rehab more effective and less painful.

2. Pain-Free Fitness and RecoveryAthletes or clients with chronic pain can maintain cardiovascular fitness and stay active without exacerbating injuries or discomfort.

3. Weight Management and Mobility SupportThe treadmill can provide an ideal way for clients managing obesity or limited mobility to exercise safely and build strength.

4. Sports Performance and TrainingAthletes looking to enhance their training can use the AlterG to improve endurance, running mechanics, and speed with less impact.

5. Prevention of Overuse InjuriesFor active individuals or athletes, the AlterG can allow high-volume training without overloading the body, reducing the risk of overuse injuries.

   
   

By integrating the AlterG into their offerings, Waco Bodymend Company can provide advanced care tailored to individual client needs, ensuring faster recovery and better results.

AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmills enable faster rehabilitation, safer conditioning for the geriatric population, and weight loss, which can help remove major obstacles associated with these activities. Impact on the body and the pain of recovery are reduced, which helps people achieve better results. Patients at Waco Bodymend Company can now rehab better, train smarter, and exercise safer with the AlterG.

With the AlterG, patients can run and walk without bearing their entire weight, reducing the impact on the body to optimize rehabilitation and physical therapy outcomes. Its Differential Air Pressure (DAP) technology applies a lifting force to the body that reduces weight on the lower extremities and allows precise unweighting – up to 80% of a person’s body weight, so people can find exactly where the pain stops and natural movement feels good again.

According to Todd Behringer, "This treadmill is a revolutionary tool that helps our rehabilitation patients recover faster and more effectively, while also serving as a powerful training aid for athletes to achieve peak performance without overloading key muscles."

There are a multitude of benefits when training and rehabilitating on the AlterG. Patients can use the AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmill to recover from injury and surgery and it allows them to immediately do partial weight bearing exercises. Patients with neurological disorders maintain, and in some cases even regain functionality and mobility working with the AlterG. It is also used as a motivational tool for obese patients, as users can immediately experience what it would feel like to weigh less, exercise with less joint impact and stress, and improve their cardiovascular health.

AlterG Anti-Gravity Treadmills are designed to be used for lower body injury and surgery rehabilitation, aerobic conditioning, weight control and reduction, sport specific conditioning programs, neurologic retraining, and geriatric strength and conditioning.
