ALTERG Anti-Gravity Treadmill In Oklahoma City, OK
At Taylor Physical Therapy & Performance Center, we believe movement is medicine. The AlterG Anti Gravity Treadmill allows people of all ages to safely return to walking, running, and daily activity without pain or fear.
Whether you are recovering from surgery, dealing with joint discomfort, or working your way back to sport, the AlterG creates a safer path forward.
How the AlterG Helps You
The AlterG gently reduces your body weight while you move, making walking or running feel lighter and more comfortable.
Using advanced body weight support technology, your therapist can adjust how much weight you carry in precise 1 percent increments, from 100 percent of your body weight down to as little as 20 percent.
This means you can:
- Move with less joint pressure
- Maintain your natural walking or running pattern
- Progress gradually and safely
- Build strength and confidence without aggravating symptoms
You are still moving in a completely normal, functional way. It simply feels easier and more controlled.
Why This Matters
After injury or surgery, many people are told to rest or avoid movement. The challenge is that avoiding movement for too long can lead to weakness, stiffness, and delayed recovery.
The AlterG allows you to begin moving earlier while protecting healing tissues.
Benefits include:
- Reduced stress on painful joints
- Ability to walk or run with less discomfort
- Earlier return to activity after injury or surgery
- Improved balance and coordination
- Increased confidence in movement
- Safe training for older adults, athletes, and individuals with neurologic conditions
Movement becomes less intimidating and more empowering.
What Can You Do on the AlterG?
The AlterG is not just for light walking. It is a versatile rehabilitation and performance tool that supports:
- Walking and light jogging
- Running and sprint progression
- Balance and stability drills
- Heel raises and strengthening exercises
- Proprioception and gait retraining
- Structured return to sport programs
All of this is done with controlled body weight support, allowing each step to be safe and purposeful.
